If you follow me on Instagram then you know I recently came back from my first trip to Hawaii. It was an amazing experience getting away from the hustle of daily life and spending some quality time with my boyfriend. As you can probably tell, it was also a no makeup and natural hair sort of situation but I loved every minute of it. In prepping for the tropical vacation, I bought this beachy co-ord set from Boohoo and I pretty much mix n matched it with my outfits throughout my entire trip. I told you I’ve been really into blue and white lately and this is no exception. Not only was it my beach cover up but the pieces were really easy to style separately so I wanted to share the different ways I wore it!
Overall, the material is made of a linen-like fabric so it’s very light and breathable which was perfect for the 80°+ weather and humidity on Oahu. I’ve been eyeing co-ord sets like this for a few weeks but hadn’t really found anything I thought would be wearable for longer than one vacation until I stumbled upon this one. The set itself is pretty simple with the blue and white pinstripes so it’s easy to wear as separates. When I wanted to be a little more covered up, I paired the top and bottoms together. After an afternoon on the beach, I wanted something more relaxed so I slipped on the bottoms and was good to go. I love the huge side slit on these pants and I really feel like they make them more of a statement piece.
The top is also great because it really doesn’t look like a beach cover up at all. Off the shoulder tops have been huge all season and I’m glad this one fit me just right. I’ll admit that I was a little worried that the cinching would be too tight around my arms but it was just enough to hold the top up without slipping off. I paired it with my favorite denim shorts and a plain black belt to complete the look. I also went pretty minimal with my accessories but this bag was everything during my trip. It literally went with every outfit and gave off major beach vibes. It’s actually 40% off right now on Simplicitly Yours and you can get an extra 10% off with code ‘ALEX10’ so don’t miss out!
