Disclosure: Thank you to vineyard vines and Shopstyle Collective for sponsoring today’s post. All products were selected, loved, and worn by yours truly [and Shawn ;)]
It is so secret that Shawn and I live for the outdoors in the summer – the entire reason we bought the lake house was for the purpose of soaking up the sun, spending time on the water, and having a backyard full of friends and family. Today is his birthday [happy birthday, Shawn!] and the one thing he requested: wake surfing. Needless to say, if there is a hint of sun in the sky we’re going to be outside soaking up all of the goodness that summer has to offer.
Now, when it comes to what to wear, we’re big fans of vineyard vines for our summer wardrobe, both for time on the water [their swimsuits and coverups are adorable] and for evening fun. Their mantra “Every Day Should Feel This Good” is a mantra we can stand behind and their high quality, bold and bright colors and prints, performance fabrics, and super cute selection of new arrivals suck us both in every time. If there is one brand that embodies are summertime lifestyle perfectly, vineyard vines is it.
Here are a few outfits for both day and night that Shawn and I have been wearing on repeat!
Seastitch Double Gauze Tassel Cover-Up [true to size, wearing in small]
Whale Logo Short-Sleeve Harbor Performance Tee [true to size] // 7 Inch Printed Chappy Swim Trunks [true to size]
7 Inch Printed Chappy Swim Trunks [true to size]
Seersucker Stripe Tie-Waist One-Piece [true to size, wearing in small]
I’m a sucker for anything seer[sucker], this suit included 😍 Shawn lives in these performance tees all summer long. The fabric is awesome for being out on the water and they are nice and cool for even the hottest days. I would count how many of these tees he has, but I don’t have all day so just believe me when I say, it’s a lot.
My outfit: Neck Striped Pop Sweater [true to size, wearing in small] // straight crop white jeans [true to size, wearing in 27] // Geo Embroidered Straw Tote
Shawn: Virgin Gorda Engineer Stripe Sankaty Polo [true to size] // 8 Inch Performance Breaker Shorts [true to size]
Neck Striped Pop Sweater [true to size, wearing in small]
Virgin Gorda Engineer Stripe Sankaty Polo [true to size]
I can’t get over this sweater with the neutral stripes and then unexpected color pop down the side. It’s the perfect combo of chic and fun while being a fabric great weight for multiple seasons. Also, can we take a minute and appreciate how fun this polo is with its neon color stripes making it a perfect summer wardrobe edition for the guys in our world?
Long story short, Shawn and I love vineyard vines for all of our days floating on a boat and evenings grabbing dinner by the water. Cheers to summer and the cute clothes that come alongside it!

When not in front of her computer screen [with a La Croix or wine in hand] or in front of a mirror taking mirror selfies, you can find Erin spending time on the water, cuddled up with her two pups and husband most likely watching the latest Shark Tank episode, or getting lost in an easy beach read.
