These sarongs from Amazon were really impressive for only $20. So many patterns and the quality was there. Also makes a great gift!

Linking these suits too - which we love for 40+

Quite literally our summer uniforms for “pool with the kids.” We each adore these longer jean shorts by Agolde. Linking suits and hats as well. Shorts run tts if you have curves- if you are narrow in hips, size down one.

Great suit from Amazon. So chic and pretty with the side strap - which is adjustable in the back. Love this if you’re small chested as you can really cinch it if you need. Good booty coverage and not too high. Also appreciate the ruching. Winner! Gretchen in a medium here and she has a LONG torso.

The best crochet coverup from Amazon. All 3 of us loved and will be wearing all season. Loved the long sleeves, covers the booty and looked great over a suit. Comes in many colors and runs tts.

OOTD: navy and white striped dress with tie at waist. Such a good fit and fabric is thicker and lovely. This is worth the $$ and can be worn so many places! Runs tts. Laura in a small.

#LTKstyletip #LTKover40 #LTKSeasonal

Chic silk matching pant and top set. One size fits most! Silk tops and flowy pants are trending and we are here for this set. Two different top options- one short sleeved and one long. Allison wore this set out for cocktails the other night and got many compliments! Also plays well with others- i.e: wear the top with jeans, or the pants with a white tee!

Also comes in green.

#LTKover40 #LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip

OOTD. Loving these cropped, pleated trousers for summer so much! There is also a button at the bottom if you want a more tapered look vs. a wide leg. Waist band has elastic in the back as well tts. Laura wearing a small. Love this neutral stripe with these- but you could go chambray black tank, or a white tee!

Statement silk v-neck maxi by Farm Rio. Can pull the home in middle tighter by cinching the drawstrings - which have the most fun tasssels 👏🏻 loved the shoulder pads in this dress as they just give nice structure to it. Would have to wear stick-end as a bra here. Runs tts, Gretchen wearing a small.

Blue fit and flare dress by Ted Baker. We could not believe how pretty this was on! Flattering in the waist, material was thick and sucked her in, and the flowy sleeve was really pretty. Covers the whole back too- which is nice. Runs a bit big, Gretchen in a 2 here. We recommend sizing down one. This could go Derby, wedding guest dress, or graduation.

We tried the button downs from AYR (they were one of Oprah’s favorite things). We were curious if they were really THAT great. And guess what- they are! Quality cut (sleeves not too long and good for rolling), well made, classic patterns and will last. Worth the $$! These run tts. Laura in a small here.
