THE FLORIDA KEYS

 
My niece Kelly, age 15, enjoyed a wonderful Florida Keys vacation with her parents and sister earlier this year.  For this post she created a fashion look, then chose a book and option not to cook should she visit again; and I found an adorable cottage and colorful accessories that would be perfect for a longer stay.

THE BEACH: Bahia Honda State Park, FL Beaches in the Keys are more like hidden pockets of sand awaiting discovery.  But oh that aqua water! (Image via virtualtourist.com)


THE LOOK:  Cute and colorful for both decor and dress. The cottage look we snagged from a spread in Coastal Living magazine.  (For the real interior and more details click here.)  Indoor/outdoor pillows from Style Maniac fave Trina Turk.

LET'S {not} COOK: Instead Kelly chose to head out for the Lobster Pizza at Marker 88, Islamorada Florida.

For another cute beach outfit by Kelly check out this post from last summer.
