Fourth of July Style

Beach or pool, lake or backyard BBQ, these are the sustainable essentials for your Fourth of July celebration. 

Dive in!

BUT FIRST, SUNSCREEN

Wherever you’re headed for the Fourth of July, make sure you’re covered with sustainable, clean sunscreen! Check out my blog post here

 

 

While you’re at it, you may need bug spray. I bought this one from Stem  but haven’t tried it yet (we don’t have many mosquitoes here!). It’s safe for kids and pets and I like its natural oils. If you have sensitive skin or allergies, make sure to test a small portion of skin first to see how you react.

 

Grab some aloe in case you find yourself with a sunburn on the Fourth of July. I like the ingredients on this one from Badger. I like the brand’s sunscreen,  but haven’t tried this yet!

 


Ok now on to the fun stuff!

This season’s colors are bright, juicy, and the epitome of summer. Colors like Tangerine and Zinnia evoke fresh fruits and vibrant flowers. These colors feel summery and fun, and their classic styling means they won’t fade into the back of your closet. As someone who loves swimwear and strives for sustainability, I carefully choose what I buy: I’ve been building my Vitamin A collection for years!

sustainability looks good on you

Vitamin A makes gorgeous, high quality swim and resort wear that’s sustainable for people and planet, which is why they’re one of my favorite brands. Their pieces use recycled and organic fibers, and they even have a line of plant-based swim. Read on to learn why I buy sustainable swim from Vitamin A. 

 

SUSTAINABLe swimwear, responsibly made in the usa

All of Vitamin A’s swimwear is made in the USA, so workers are protected under US Labor Laws. Plus, California has the strictest environmental laws in the nations, so Vitamin A must meet the highest possible standards. For other products that cannot be made in California, Vitamin A partners with fair trade artisans, ensuring workers have fair wages and safe working conditions. Read more here.
 

my philosophy on sustainability in swimwear

One of the biggest ways we can support social and environmental justice is by ensuring our purchases reflect our values. My philosophy is to apply the Essentialist principle “Less, but Better.” Buy less, but buy betterVitamin A is a lot like Patagonia: your pieces will last forever, and you can rest easy knowing they’ve been made responsibly. 

 

Now back to the bikinis. 

 

Pink Coral and Sarong

Sustainability is sexy

These shapes are classics for a reason–they flatter all bodies, and never go out of style! Vitamin A typically offers color ways that are “Essential Colors,” and those that are “Limited Edition.” Being a sustainable business, colors and styles are produced in lower quantities to avoid waste. So if you see a color way you love, snatch it up before it’s gone! 

 

swimsuit bottoms

California high leg

This bottom is *cheeky* in the best of ways! It also comes in a “classic” fit, if you prefer more coverage. I wear the cheeky fit, but size up to pull the sides higher up on my hips. This cut gives you legs for days.
