Beachwear & Swimsuits for Midlife

I do not wear clothes suitable for midlife, I wear clothes that make me happy. However, this year you will not be seeing me on the beach in a tiny red sequinned bikini, but my point is if you want to wear one then go right ahead, life is short! In 2020 I prefer my beachwear to be voluminous and my swimsuits to be clever and comfy ie. no silly necklines or baggy bums!

2020 Beachwear and swimsuits

I would happily wear all of the garments I am featuring. In fact when researching shopping posts it is very hard to resist pressing the ‘add to cart’ button! Neutral colours are lifesavers, they go with everything and you can mix and match them to your hearts content.

I prefer to mix my caramel colours (posh word for beige) with blacks and natural accessories. I have a tortoise shell hair clip from the 80’s, I’m wearing it today to hold my hair back. Then of course just add in the staple straw basket and away you go. If you love colour on the beach, mix it with a black kaftan or a beige cotton over sized shirt dress.

 

From Beach to Bar:

A few suggestions for beachwear that will take you anywhere . . .

Hello February! Happy as Larry with an armful of new fabric, bargain priced fabric, those lace fabrics were £1 pm 😳From local store @hansonsfabricsandcrafts Day made 🙌🏻
.
Big hello to new followers , let me reintroduce myself . . . I’m Ashley 👋🏻 a fabric and yarn obsessed midlife ‘gal’ 
Former air stewardess, costume maker and retail store manager. 
An empty nester with son at University, (he’s not too far away 😭) I feathered a new nest with 2 cats who live happily with our two dogs. 
My partner and I are keen on restoring pre loved vintage items of furniture lighting etc into unique pieces for our home. He does the hard work I draw the sketches and point at things. 
I post about my handmade life, sewing and crochet projects, our home restorations and occasionally the clothes and beauty products I wear and use as a midlife woman .
I find it very hard to be niche as I have too much to say! 
I have also been writing my blog Lazy Daisy Jones (link in bio) for almost 10 years. 
I very much enjoy connecting with other midlife girls on insta and proving it’s not just for the under 30’s . 
Leave me a comment if you are over 35 and any of this resonates with you Hellooooo x

Proud Muvva ! 
2nd year of his commercial photography degreeand a selection of my boy’s @jacobcramp work can be found in @pierjournal issue 2.
I think he takes timeless portraits. He only uses film and develops his own film too. I won’t mention what he thinks about digital photography ( 😳) 
He is also becoming an very good cook. He cooks for us when he visits. 
I can’t wait to see what the future brings for him.

Me, my dog, a bowl of crochet monsters, coffee brewing and chocolate digestives in the tin. Welcome to my world. I’m so rock ‘n roll it hurts!
.
Book is where the patterns for the monsters can be found, save for reference it’s a good one.
