For me, surf and beach culture has been more about a way of life than a fashion trend. From high end surf shops to boutique hotels and designers inspired by surfer girls- lately it's been embraced by the fashion industry more than ever. Though I'm thousands of miles from the nearest ocean, I'm still a surfer girl at heart!
These are a few of my fave occurrences of surf & fashion colliding:

I also stumbled upon this island-y MGMT x Bob Marley mashup that I wanted to share; it's the perfect tune for driving around the causeway with windows rolled down and wind in your hair.
Have you ever been surfing?

I used to surf in high school but haven't in a long time. One of my New Year resolutions is to surf again.
ReplyDeleteI think the surfer trend looks interesting! Teen Vogue was talking about not to long ago on their site! I'm not sure if I could pull of a surfer-inspired look.
