Grand Bend: day trip to the beach

Real beach waves hairdo! The wind styled my hair!

I’m a summer kinda girl but I prefer the beach after four and especially at sunset when it’s not so crowded and a little cooler. 

During the day, we visited family in Sarnia (about two hours from where we live) and then drove to Grand Bend together. Even though on this day the waves were so choppy and it was very windy, we still enjoyed blue skies and the beautiful view of Lake Huron (one of the Great Lakes).

They don’t call them The Great Lakes for nothing, these lakes look like the ocean! I have been to four of the Great Lakes: Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. The only one I haven’t seen is Lake Superior (the largest fresh water lake in the world and has more water than the other four lakes combined).

I wore a white linen cropped shirt (one of my summer purchases from Zara). It’s so cool and comfortable. I love the relaxed, carefree look of linen. Paired with these stonewashed jeans (from Hollisters) is a perfect look for a walk on the beach and wading in the water (just up to my ankles).

My bag is hand-made by a local artist bought at a Christmas fair

These new sandals are my most comfortable wedges ever (Skechers–who says Skechers are frumpy–not these ones!) 

Have you been to a beach this summer?
