Cotton Candy Colors

Hello! My week at the beach was not only filled with lazy days by the beach and in the hot tub but also with several shopping excursions. These photos were taken when my mom, sister and I headed to a few tourist-y shops. Our first stop was at Farmer's Daughter where these photos were taken. Isn't the building just lovely? I feel as though the background really brings out the colors in my outfit.

Farmer's Daughter sells a wide variety of products ranging from casual sweatshirts to bathing suits to beach jewelry. While there, I picked up a green Baja jacket for only $12 (originally $14). A Baja jacket has been on my wish list for quite a while so I was pleased to find one I adored at a reasonable price.

Next we headed off to Wings, the classic beach shop. Wings stocks everything from shot glasses to beach towels to small nautical figurines. However, nothing really caught my eye so I left the store empty-handed.

Then my sister, mom and I journeyed a few miles down the road to the TimBuck II shopping center. Various shops abound in the TimBuck II shopping center and my family and I certainly took our time while browsing through them. Although my sister and mom made quite a few purchases in the Timbuck II shopping center, I only made one. At Michael's Gems, I purchased 10 sticks of patchouli incense and a new incense holder for less than $5- talk about a great deal!

My outfit that day was a pastel dream with soft, cotton candy colors dominating the look. I began with a pair of sweet yellow shorts. Next, I threw on my "Bonjour" tee. Since it was a bit chilly out, I slipped into this faux fur jacket. Talk about adding glamour to a look with just one piece!

For the first time this year, I was able to don my blue suede Calvin Klein sandals. Hooray for spring! I accessorized with a pair of white heart sunglasses and a DIY floral tote.
