As another week goes by with safer-at-home orders still in place, I can’t help but think about all my plans that, unfortunately, got canceled this summer. Although my calendar was once filled with trips down the coast and snorkel adventures in Hawaii, I’m determined to find ways to make this summer feel “normal.” And just because I’m not hopping on a plane to a new destination, it doesn’t mean I’m not shopping for things that make me feel like I’m going somewhere exciting. In fact, I’ve turned to one of my favorite retailers, Forever 21, to load up on affordable bikinis, dresses, sunnies, and more that make me feel like I’m sipping a pina colada in the sand (even though it’s really just in my parents’ backyard). Curious to see what I added to my cart? Keep scrolling.
