Coolibar clothing line's main purpose is near and dear to my heart, sun protection.
Sun protection is not something I thought too much about growing up. Like most people I put on sunscreen if I was swimming but I liked to lay out (a lot) and also liked to use tanning beds. Those days are WAY behind me now. I know the risks and I am want my kids to grow up knowing how to stay safe in the sun. Lately, sun protection is part of mine (and my families) daily routine.
Here is a bit about Coolibar:"Regular summer clothing provides very little sun protection.Wrinkles and age spots are the least of it. The sun has been proven to aggravate medical conditions, interfere with prescriptive drugs, and to cause skin cancer. Your summer weight t-shirts and sun-dresses can let in an astonishing amount of the sun's damaging UV rays. Coolibar sun hats, protective clothing and swimwear use superbly protective, high-tech fabrics to deliver no less than 50 UPF, 98% blockage, yet keep you cool, comfortable and fashionable."I am in love with my new Coastline Cover up Dress. I know it says it's a bathing suit cover up, but this beauty is great for all day wear!
I wore it for a morning at the Pier:
On the boat (Kaitlyn's puppy's first boat ride):
And at the beach as a bathing suit cover up:
Coastline Cover Up Dress: c/o Coolibar // Shoes: Target // Hat: Forever 21 // Sunnies: Prada
I can't wait to get more items from Coolibar! They have everything from clothing (for women, men, & children), to swimmer, to hats and accessories, and they even have sunscreen!
What do you think of my new dress?
