In any action there is a reaction. If I’m watching the Bachelorette (action) Dave gripes, whines and wants to change the channel (reaction). If I eat queso, chips and wash it down with a Molten Chocolate Cake (action) my butt gets bigger (reaction). If I have to wear a swimsuit (action) to survive and enjoy the Texas Summers then I darn well better get a cute cover-up (reaction) to cover my big butt from the aforementioned actions! I’m not going to be one of those girls who looks amazing in my bikini and feels compelled to walk laps around the pool in an effort to show everyone my goods. Trust me when I say “there’s nothing to see here!” I’ve been searching for this year’s “staple” item and I’ve found a few front runners…
This Ralph Lauren tunic cover-up is probably my favorite. I love the sleeves, it is light and airy, casual but stylish and comes in great colors!
This cotton racerback dress from the GAP could double as a cover-up.
Although I personally cannot pull off this look I always think it looks darling on others! This hooded romper from the GAP is on sale for only $29.99! (Why must they call it a “romper”??)
And for something that could easily be worn out to dinner or to the pool, here is a Maxi dress that I have fallen for! This dress is from Nordstrom and is a bit pricey, but it’s flattering for all figures.
I promised that I would make up my FFF absence for the past 2 weeks and what better way to earn your love back than by giving away some of my favorite summer items! Simply leave a comment and include your favorite summer tune. I need to make some great playlists for the Summer and you can help! I will select the lucky winner on Monday, May 25 using the Random Number Generator at Random.org. Good luck!

Oh mylanta. That ralph lauren tunic is ADORABLE. I hope no one else comments so I can win. ;)
I personally like "Great Day to be Alive" by Travis Tritt (I think) for when I'm chillin' by the pool. For driving around, I seriously bust out my solo dance moves to "Swing Baby Swing" by The DNC. I literally can't stop myself. And you can't go wrong with Jimmy Buffet (I personally like the Banana Wind album... but Songs You Know By Heart is the obvious choice).
OHHHH, don't pick Liz!!!! Pick MEEEEE!!! :):):) I would also go for the RL tunic, or maybe the hooded romper thingy (all be the unfortunate name). My summer tunes are definitely including but not limited to: Paper Planes by MIA, anything Taylor Swift (enough said), and maybe some Heartless by KRIS ALLEN!!! :):):) love love!!!
The RL tunic is super cute!! Glad to see FFF back!
And I agree with Liz on Jimmy Buffet being ideal summer music. His songs just scream beach, sun and fun!!
"Could You Be Loved" by Bob Marley
Man, I want a snocone right now...
I love the romper!! I will romp away in it. I also want to listen to Heartless by Kris!
The Tunic is awesome! I love it! Also love your dining room (how I got to your site:)
Totally agree with the other Liz and think anything Jimmy Buffet is great summer music! Also into Lady GaGa right now (Just Dance and Poker Face).
I just found your blog and I love it! I want to jump right in and join the giveaway.
I love that maxi dress and the RL tunic and my favorite summer tunes are upbeat pop-like tunes, like that new Black Eyed Peas song or anything by Justin Timberlake. I also like a lot of the songs on the NKOTB album (Dirty Dancing, Lights Camera Action, etc.) I know I'm a huge teeny bopper!
I found your blog through Kelly's Korner. You have great style! My favorite summer song is Kenny Chesney's "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem". Also, "It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere". And most anything from the 80s... I miss that great genre of music!
I am not really sure how I found your blog but I really enjoy the laughs and the fashion help..Lord knows I need it!! On to music..I love Pit Bulls song "I know you want me". I love the beat it makes me want to dance!
