Look for Less: Marysia One-Piece Swimsuit

Look for Less: Marysia One-Piece Swimsuit

Lydia’s comment on yesterday’s post prompted me to go on an Internet scavenger hunt last night to find affordable alternatives to the Marysia swimsuits we all love. It’s definitely easier to find scalloped-edged bikinis, so I focused my hunt on one-piece bathing suits, which I love more anyway. (Seriously, why bother killing yourself at the gym just to get a summer-ready bikini body? Pack it all in a one-piece, grab an umbrella cocktail, and call it a day! #MoreToLifeThanAbs 😉 ) I bypassed quite a few cheap-looking versions and narrowed it down to three I felt were the best “inspired by” swimsuits that look like they cost more than they do. The key was finding options with a textured fabric, which is characteristic of a lot of Marysia suits.

First up, this black one-shoulder swimsuit that comes in at just $39.99. It has quite the flirty back! It’s also available in magenta.

Next, a bright poppy bathing suit. This is the most expensive of the group at $99.99, but it’s still a far cry from dropping over $300 on a swimsuit. Like the black one, it doesn’t have a lot of coverage in the back. It’s also available in white and black.

And, finally, my favorite of the three: this white halter-top suit. It’s the least expensive at $28.99. It has full coverage, so you won’t need to worry if you’re rocking some love handles this year. The online description says the swimsuit is fully lined. Hopefully it’s done well enough that a dip in the pool won’t leave you overexposed!

Let me know if you try any of these! I’d love to know if they’re as great in person as I hope they are!

Phone nooks don’t get the attention they deserve Phone nooks don’t get the attention they deserve. They’re practically begging to be used as built-in displays for ceramics! 

(I removed the phone jack, pulled the wires back through the hole, and patched it up, so it’s no longer functional for a landline. I assume a future owner won’t miss it either!)

I can’t believe we’re celebrating our fourth C I can’t believe we’re celebrating our fourth Christmas in the house! I’ve taken a version of this photo each Christmas to serve as a timeline of the small changes over the years. One thing never changes, though: I think our Christmas tree is the prettiest. 😊 I hope you have a wonderful holiday in however you’re able to celebrate this year. 2020 has been difficult, but we’re in the home stretch now! Sending lots of love your way!

As my holiday gift to you, enjoy my favorite famil As my holiday gift to you, enjoy my favorite family cookie recipe now on the blog! (Find it via the link-in-profile or search for "sugar cookie.”) It never feels like Christmas until I’ve had my mom’s sugar cookies. In a typical year (or even an atypical one like 2020!), I’ll spend a couple of days working on these — baking them the first and decorating them the second — and it immediately puts me in the holiday spirit. Not only are these nostalgic for me as she’s been making them my entire life (there’s even a photo of me, no older than 2 years old, sitting at the kitchen table “helping” with them), they’re hands-down the best sugar cookies I have ever had. And plenty of people agree with not-so-subtle hints to make them each year.

It never really feels like the holiday season unti It never really feels like the holiday season until I’ve made sugar cookies with my mom’s decades old recipe — and until I’ve risked a food-borne illness by snacking on raw dough. I shirked the holiday tradition last year after having been too busy with holiday travel (ten days in Belgium and a long weekend in Chicago left me too busy with other holiday to-dos), but there’s zero excuse to put off baking this year. #AlwaysHome #QuarantineForever
Buffalo plaid packages tied up with string ... the Buffalo plaid packages tied up with string ... these are a few of my favorite things. 🎶 (I don't think Julie Andrews would mind tweaking the lyrics a little bit, right? 😉)

Pro tip: Instead of looking at the gift-wrap section for things to decorate your presents, hit up your local craft store. I bought a package of 75 jingle bells, a dozen mini bottlebrush trees, and twine in seasonal colors for just a couple of dollars each. (The wrapping paper is from Target.)
