Sad is an understatement about how I am feeling in regards to vacation being over. Grand Cayman was everything we hoped it would be and more – fabulous food, friendly people, beautiful scenery and of course, delicious pina coladas…all of the stuff that vacation should be. If you haven’t visited the island, stop everything you are doing and GO. We stayed at the Kimpton Seafire [I will be doing a full review one of these days of our trip] and it was perfection! Of course, with vacation comes the opportunity to wear vacation [aka warm weather] outfits. A nice change from the 20 degrees and snow we are experiencing as I type this. I thought I’d make it easy on you if you are planning a trip anytime in the near future and put together all of the vacation looks from dresses, swimsuit coverups and more that I wore while we were gone. Let’s get this flashback to sunshine and warmth started shall we?
Before we dive in, let’s get the logistics out of the way to make this process easier on you – for sizing reference, I am 5’4, 125 lbs on a good day, typically a 2 in tops/dresses and 26 in jeans/pants with a preferred inseam of 26-28 inches. Bra size is 30DDD [I get it from my momma]. Hopefully, this helps when determining what size you’d need. Also, feel free to follow along here for daily outfits and check out this Pinterest board where you can also get some ideas! Which reminds me, you can pin any of these looks below to save for future reference! Alright, fellow “I like to get dressed” friends, let’s begin!

Founder and creator of LIY, Erin turned her dream of a hobby blog into a full-time career which she now runs alongside the LIY team! 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.
