Swimwear: Camping Edition

By Earl
Ahoy there, Fashion Friends! We apologize for the lack of updates recently. We spent a glorious week traveling to Northern Idaho and back for a fun-filled adventure with extended family. Ms. Mommy has been so busy that she hasn't found the time to help maintain the blog. Since our last post discussed swimwear, let's take a look at what we wore to the lake:

Above, you see me (Earl) on hmy own private island, wearing some brand we can't recall (hand-me-down) swimtrunks, with an Old Navy rash guard.

Here we have Hank, chilling on a tube with Mr. Daddy, wearing swim trunks and a rash guard (both from Old Navy). Hank also wore his a life-vest, because safety always tops fashion. Please note that it's a very cool Spiderman vest though.

Petunia is seen here sporting an Old Navy rash guard (they do have excellent rash guards at reasonable prices) under a Land's End swim tank, with a Best Bottom cloth swim diaper.

Outfit of the Week - Swimwear Edition

By Petunia
It is never too early (or too late) to think about swimsuits! This has been an unnaturally hot summer in Oregon and has required me to wear my swimsuit much much more than I did when I was a baby. Plus, going to the kiddie pool, water parks, lakes, and beaches are much more fun when you look stylish and have everyone cooing over you!

Actually, Ms. Mommy says it is too late to buy a new swimsuit. Which brings us to never being too early. Good note: swimsuits are on sale! Great time to look forward to next year! I love the ruching and old-fashioned appeal of these two suits. The sunhat is great for the beach. If you're like me and burn easily, a swim hat might be a more sensible (and still fashionable) option. What's your pick?
