Resort Style- Cocktail Hour

My husband has worked SOOO hard and made Presidents Club for work this year, so the two of us are heading to TAHITI in a little over a month! I CAN NOT EVEN WAIT!!!!!!!!!!! 

The minute I found out that this wasn't just a dream...I immediately felt the need to check out my closet and see what I had, and what I needed!  I usually am a cover up, beach pants with tanks, and bathing suits only kind of girl when I am on a beach vacation. I don't ever dress up for dinner because I am just basically all about comfort 100% of the time.  This trip has me wanting to wear dresses to dinner and just try a little harder than I usually do!  I have been doing some serious searching for COMFORTABLE, stylish, and beachy dresses that I can wear while on vacation at fancy dinners with my husband AND still want to wear when we are back home!  

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 

1:I LOVE this mini dress! I actually bought it on Zulily a few weeks ago and was just hoping that the material was thin enough for summer! IT IS and it is possibly the softest dress I own! I LOVE IT!!!!! I am pretty sure I will wear it with sandals because I just feel like it will be a little too much with heels on vacation. 

2: I am 5' 2" and I just assumed that I would look ridiculous in a jumpsuit like this! I was killing time at Target a few weeks ago and just tried it on and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! I do need to get it hemmed because it is VERY long, but this has to be the most comfortable piece of clothes that I own! It basically feels like I am walking out in pajamas and I can't even wait to wear this to dinner on vacation! I am on the hunt for a long coral necklace to pair with it and I am packing my coral heels! 

3: I have been eyeing this dress for MONTHS and snagged it up the second I got the 50% off coupon.  (use "friends&family") I LOVE IT!!!!!! Super thin material and the cut is so flattering! I went back and purchased it in the other print as well because it is THAT amazing! 

4: I have never purchased a maxi dress that didn't need to be hemmed......UNTIL I BOUGHT THIS DRESS!!!!!  It is a heavy fabric that hangs very well, and the print cuts at the right places! 

I usually pack a "fancy" outfit for most trips and never end up wearing it because comfort wins over fashion.  BUT I feel that each one of these dresses is the perfect mix of "fancy" AND comfortable so I am confident that I will wear them! (plus, my husband has made sure that I am fully aware that I can not bring a ton of suitcases on this trip)
