maxi skirt- yoga pants, the next generation

Free People tank // TJ Maxx skirt // Mom's old purse // Forever 21 aviators

Since I'm leaving for DC in three days to start an internship, I'm spending as much time as possible at the beach before I go. And who knew, September has the best beach weather! It was perfect. Not to mention this maxi skirt is potentially the most comfortable article of clothing I own- okay, that title belongs to a plus sized chenille sweater I purchased from Target- but a close second at least.

cut-offs

Marshall's shirt // Thrifted DIY shorts // Urban Outfitters flats // Ray-Ban sunglasses // Fossil watch // Forever 21 bangles // Topshop ring // Thrifted purse

With summer weather coming to an end, I'm taking advantage of every last day of perfect weather
(and I mean today was perfect) to wear tanks and cut-offs. Today, I found myself at  Beads and Rocks, an awesome little bead store at the oceanfront, that I have apparently been frequenting a lot lately because I was recognized by more than one employee. Oh well, at least my latest addiction is leaving me with a lot of DIY jewelry to show for it. More on that later.

I wore this outfit around town today shopping and buying fro-yo...two of my favorite things to do on a Monday!

Ray-Ban sunglasses // Mint shirt // Yellow Button dress // Thrifted purse // TJ Maxx sandals

Well, today was originally a beach day with an entirely different outfit planned, but the weather had other ideas... so I ended up in Norfolk checking out the new Urban Outfitters. Finally, after I don't know how many years of complaining to anyone who'd listen about needing an UO, we get one. Although there were definitely some things I wanted to drop some $$ on- namely an American flag baseball cap- I refrained.... maybe next time. What I didn't stop myself from buying? A cupcake from Carolina Cupcakery. Couldn't leave completely empty handed!

Don't mind me, just having a laughing fit in the middle of downtown Norfolk... 

& I didn't notice until posting these pictures, but my chevron top almost exactly matches the brick sidewalk pattern- unintentional, but I don't hate it!

two peas, one pod.

Hi, we're Anna and Katina. Two recent college grads born and raised in Virginia Beach who found ourselves with a little too much time on our hands in the months after graduation. We decided to finally combine our love of clothes, photography, and the occasional DIY into this blog- keep off the dunes.

The name of our blog comes from a pair of infamous signs we found one summer that have stuck with us- to college and back. The signs are always a topic of conversation and bring us back to a place where we spent most of our time growing up, the beach. 

We've been friends since about 6th grade- luckily for everyone, fashion blogging wasn't popular amongst middle schoolers back then... not our finest moments. Since then, we've come a long way and are excited to blog through the next phase of our fashion evolution. Follow us to see what happens!
