For this month’s Your Own Twist theme, Monica and I are bringing you some style inspiration for what to wear while on vacation, or staycation for those of you who prefer to just hang at home during the Summer months. Your Own Twist is a monthly series hosted by Monica of Jersey Girl, Texan Heart and myself where we showcase our own interpretations of a chosen style theme. We share the theme with you ahead of time in case you are interested in joining us. Feel free to link your own Vacation/Staycation outfit ideas below. Or add any outfit, style, or fashion post that you’d like!

This month we have invited Brandi and Sherry of Just Live Joy to join us as co-hosts. I met Sherry on my blogging journey a while back through her former blog, The Life of the Party. She has since transitioned to her new blog which she manages with her lifelong bestie, Brandi. You can read their story here. I am absolutely loving the concept and mission behind their new blog. There is so much inspiration to be found within their posts. So definitely go check them out!

Now that I have introduced you to our co-hosts, let me also invite you to join us as a co-host for future Your Own Twist Link Ups. Monica and I post this link up on the third Thursday of every month. If you are interested in co-hosting with us at any point, just let us know in the comments or reach out via email. We would love to have you on board!

Now onto the outfit…generally I am much more of a staycation kind of girl. That is until recently…I have acquired the travel bug. But travel is expensive so other than my recent trip to Asheville, North Carolina, the rest of my Summer travels will be within a few hours of home. But when I am just hanging around at home, I like to be comfortable and cool. Light layers are the way to go for me. And when it is really humid and sticky, I generally opt for loose fitting pants because that sensation of my skin sticking to itself completely grosses me out! I would never survive a Summer in the South. I don’t even really know how I survived a week in North Carolina in July.

Everything I am wearing in this post has been hanging around in my closet at least since last Summer, probably longer. This outfit is so not typical of what you generally see on my blog. Super casual and understated…not really how I roll! But sometimes a girl has got to just tone it down for a hot minute and take it easy. A nice relaxing break in the shade, not feeling too concerned about what I’m wearing. That is what vacation is all about anyway, isn’t it? Throwing our concerns out the window for a few days while we rejuvenate and replenish our energy source.
