I love the beach. And although I refuse to be out in the sun unless I am covered in at least 85 spf and wearing a giant floppy hat I try to spend as much time as possible at the beach during the summer months. Unfortunately I do not live as close to the beach as I want to so one of the challenges I always face is what to wear after a day at the beach which does not involve going home to shower and change. This dress is my little secret weapon. On the hanger it may look a little to "fancy" for the beach but it is just perfect. It is light enough for a day and with the right accessories and shoes it can be dressed up for a night out on the town.
