I feel like we’ve been planning this Florida trip (to Disney) for twenty two months. We’re finally in the home stretch! I will share all our thoughts and reactions after we come back because I’m sure we will have notes on what we could have done differently after, but I will say that Lan and I opted not to stay at a Disney resort because we wanted to have a quieter experience “off-campus” once done with the parks, and are looking forward to some time spent relaxing poolside. Planning for those stretches of time (and watching White Lotus) has left me very excited. A few recent finds and old favorites I want to spotlight:
+SPF: Tula for me; SuperGoop for the whole family (Landon loves this stuff especially; in the summer we get a few of the giant pump bottles and keep them in our Bogg bag for the pool and by the back door); Pipette mineral spray for the kids. I have to be honest: I generally avoid sunscreen sprays because we have destroyed multiple things using this — carseats, stroller pads, even the front flagstone pavers of our house. It is HARD to get off. But for a trip when we’ll be sitting by the pool, totally welcome (and so easy).
+The Paloma Bag from Monday Swimwear — large size, and suitcase friendly – it packs flat!
+This Flora One Piece — have shared this a lot but it’s my favorite swimsuit!
+My favorite packable sunhat — look for less with this or this.
+The Julia Amory husband shirt — perfect throw on, and very lightweight. I kind of like that the sleeves offer a tad more sun coverage!

Can’t wait for the Disney recap!! I haven’t pulled the trigger yet, but my idea for my next two-piece is to embrace my more “athletic” shape and be inspired by the beach volleyball players…although with more coverage! I want a simple black racer back top and a mid rise full coverage bottom. Haven’t found the perfect one yet but I’m having fun looking and pretending to be an Olympic athlete, haha.
I love this sporty look! You might take a look at Left on Fridays — I feel like they have a very “beach volleyball” vibe!

Has anyone tried a stylest bikini? I just saw Mary A Hafner in their one piece with polo collar. I’m looking at the high waist with the grommets. Also curious about Hunza G, Vitamin A, Staud. I’m specifically hoping for a high waisted bikini but I’m not fond of the way compression feels. I want to keep my stretch marks out of the sun but feel no need for flattening of any kind. I like retro styling and my ideal swimsuit color is bay watch red
Hi! I’ve not tried Stylest but am similarly intrigued. Their marketing is very convincing! Would love to know if other Magpies have dabbled.
Based on what you’ve described, I think you’d DEFINITELY like Hunza G. They do great colors (including a bright red) and the material is stretchy and non-compressive. I think you’ll love.
