Beach Bumming in cut off denim shorts

The weather in San Francisco has been hard to beat lately and I’ve been taking advantage of the sunshine as much as possible. On nice weekends it’s only a short drive up north and we are at the beach! It feels great to take the day to relax and put my toes in the sand.

When dressing for a day at the beach a swimsuit is an obvious must, but lately I’ve been ditching the cover-ups and opting for outfits. Cut off denim shorts are a basic for hot summer days, so why not rock them on the beach? And to complete the relaxed beach vibe I opted for this Old Navy Button Up Boyfriend Shirt. It is a great staple for any girl’s closet and is so versatile. I not only pair it with cut off denim shorts, but it looks great with shirts, leggings and boyfriend jeans depending on my mood.

Lastly, I featured this Vegan Leather Reversible Tote on my Trendy Spring Accessories on a Budget post. This bag has been a lifesaver! I chose the Cognac/Black color option and it has been my go-to bag ever since. As you can see, it’s a generous size, well-made and even fits my laptop. It’s super simple, but comes with a matching zippered clutch that attaches to the inside for quick finds. Not to mention, it’s such a great value at only $48! Nordstrom has a few other colors available, including a light pink one that’s perfect for spring adventures!
