This summer, I have plans to spend lots of time at the beach, pool, and a lake... which means I need a new swimsuit, right? After some thinking, I decided to use the Greenstyle North Shore Swimsuit for the bottoms and the Power Sports Bra for the top. I ordered some beautiful swim fabric that... Continue Reading →
