{ Gap Tunic; Crocs Flip-Flops }
Beach outfits are a little tricky at the moment. Basically…none of my bathing suits fit. And the bandeau-style ones that are adjustable and thus can be made technically the right size are nevertheless a little…
ah…
unsupportive.
So I’m about to bite the bullet and invest in an actual maternity bathing suit (possibly this one, unless anyone has any especially cute suggestions?)…but in the meantime, my beach uniform consists of a bathing suit that doesn’t quite fit worn under a tunic that does fit. Which is fine, especially when it’s still June and there is no way I’m putting anything more than a single toe into the Atlantic Ocean.
What I wore for our beach day at the Jersey Shore: a light-as-air striped top from the Gap (cut long, so it works as maternity wear even though it’s not technically “maternity” at all), stretchy short shorts, and a whole bunch of neon in seaside-appropriate shades. Maybe not right for surfing the waves, but for a stroll along the sand? It totally works.
