I really like summer. I like the fresh air, the sunshine and just the all-around great feel of the outdoors. However..........
This summer I have to take extra special care of my skin! Since my dress is strapless, I don't want any burns or funky looking tan lines. Since I have so many different shaped tank tops, and all 3 of my bathing suits are different styles, I really have to have a strategy! (I'm not one for fake tanning, so usually I just use the good ole sun........who knows, maybe this year I'll need to change.)
Anyway, so yeah, no funky tan lines. That's the goal. So today I was a little worried, but came extra prepared when we attended Allie's graduation at Sonoma State---wahoo!!!! She did awesome and had THE coolest cap there!
The ceremony took place on a large field, with only certain areas of shade, and the sun was full out. Don't get me wrong, it was a beautiful day, but there was no hiding the big hot shiny thing in the sky. So, with my SPF 50 on, and my sweater, I wore it. Luckily, the shade ended up gracing its presence upon my shoulders AND it eventually got cold and breezy. So no tan lines for me, nothing to worry about.
Now Casey on the other hand......
Don't know if you can tell because of the lighting, but there is a massive pink/red line that goes along his hair line there.....very strange! So you can totally tell where he forgot to put his trusty SPF 50. Got everywhere but there. :( He doesn't care though.....at least yet. It doesn't hurt so far.
My friend Annie from work has some interesting sunburn spots that are all very random (one spot on her ankle and 2 round circles on just her elbows...yeah weird!)
But basically anytime I want to bask in the sun and get some actual rays, I only have 1 bathing suit so far that is strapless and will give me an even tan.
C'est la vie. (Oh wait, that's a different blog, hahah!)
