You can probably tell by my pasty white skin (thank goodness for Tan Towels!) that the sun and I have never been friends. I’ve never been tan, only red, after spending time in the sun. As I have gotten older, sun protection has become more and more important to me. My face moisturizer has sunscreen in it. If I know I am going to be outside for any length of time, I lather up. You can imagine my excitement when I found out about SUMMERSKIN. Their clothing allows you to protect your skin and stay stylish. The material blocks 98% of UV rays. Win, win! You can use the code Amy20 for a 20% off discount too!
Today the Blogger Nation girls and I are all styling looks from their collection, so be sure to check their blogs too. I picked this maxi dress (sleeves version here) and wrap. Dresses are a huge part of my summer wardrobe, so it was a no-brainer. While I am wearing the wrap as a scarf today, it has multiple styling options making it the perfect piece to pack when traveling. Speaking of traveling, I had a great time with my mom in Chicago this past weekend. She was kind enough to take me shopping for some maternity clothes, and we always have so much fun together. I had one of those moments where time seems to stop and you realize all the beauty in your life and reflect on it. I’m so thankful for my family and this growing babe! I cannot wait to share what I got with you in the months to come! We just made a quick trip (Friday – Sunday morning) and didn’t leave the Magnificent Mile. I hope to go back again one day and visit all the blogger babes I love who live in Chicago!

Love this!! Definitely always wear SPF! Even when I do, sometimes I still get a bad burn!!

I have pretty fair skin and so I’m the exact same when it comes to making sure that I either have sunscreen on or wear moisturizer with SPF when I’m out in the sun. I’ll definitely have to check out this clothing brand!

I am loving how you styled this dress with the knot at the bottom!! I had never heard of clothing that provided spf protection so I will definitely be checking that out as I burn a lot as well!

How nice of your mom to take your maternity shopping! Loved the snap of you with the baby pillow under your clothes! Ha! I remember that when I went shopping when I was pregnant with Nathan. I love the idea of UV protected clothing, I have been trying to be better with sunscreen, too as I get older. You styled this maxi dress like a pro!
