Today I ducked into H&M to see if they had anything new and cute. Well, of course they did, which became way too tempting for me, especially when I spotted a cute blue and white striped bikini. Since I am headed to California on Thursday and don't currently like any of my swimsuits, I decided that it was worth it to try it on. Amazingly enough it fit perfectly, which I feel never happens with bathing suits, so I took it as a sign and purchased it immediately. Incredibly excited about my find, I decided I wanted to create an outfit around it that I might wear on the beach when I get to San Diego later this week. So I went with a laidback vibe with comfy basics and a bright red bag! What do you think of striped swimsuits? What about stripes in general? I would have to say that I am generally obsessed with them! 

(Sadly I was not able to find my suit online, but luckily Top Shop had a similar one!)
