Today’s Delight of the Day is this Monogram Necklace from Etsy, $31.95 for the silver and $59 for the gold. These necklaces have been everywhere lately, but this is a much more affordable version. I don’t personally own one, so I can’t speak to the quality of these, but they look super adorable in the pictures, and I’m sure they’re just as nice as other, more expensive versions. Do you own a monogrammed necklace?

Today’s Delight of the Day is the Monogrammed Seersucker Clutch from Southern Beaus, $65. I love the small bow detail, which really makes it stand out from other seersucker clutches I’ve found. Plus, ya can’t have too many monograms, right?

So I’m pretty much the luckiest girl in the world and was invited on a two week trip to Hilton Head, starting tomorrow – my 23 birthday! As such, I’m going to take the next two weeks off on my blog. I’ll still be tweeting away, so if you need your daily dose of Preppy Delight, you can head on over to my Twitter page.
Before I leave, I figured a beach post would be appropriate. Every prep loves his or her beach vacation, so I’m going to share my favorite beach essentials. Hope you enjoy!
Notte Stellata from Shabby Apple, $78
Seersucker Swimsuits from J.Crew, $29.99-82.00

Odette Striped Bikini – Top, $100 and Bottom, $104
Biscayne Bay Bow Bikini Top from Heidi Klein – Top, $168 and Bottom, $136
(Definitely a little pricey, but you could always just buy the top and use basic navy bottoms!)
Bahama Map Chappy Trunks from Vineyard Vines, $79.50
Everette Seahorse Swim Trunks from J.McLaughlin, $95
Open Shoulder Cover-up from Victoria’s Secret, $59.50
Seersucker Tugs from Shop Tugs, $14

Script Sunglasses from Pineapple Grove Gifts, $36.50
Folding Wayfarers from Ray-Ban, $150
(I personally own these, and I LOVE them. Worth every penny!)
Seersucker Frat Hat from Southern Proper, $25
USA Team Beach Towel from Ralph Lauren, $60
Everyday Beach Towel from Vineyard Vines, $95
Leather Sandals from Rainbow, $48.99
(These flip flops are my absolute favorite. If they break, Rainbow will actually replace them!)
Warehouse Canvas Spot Shopper from ASOS, $48.71
Sorority Tote from Vineyard Vines, $95
(Obviously not everyone is a Kappa, but they also have other sorority prints, university prints, and several other options!)
And last but not least: do NOT forget your sunscreen! Leathery skin isn’t cute on anyone, and I don’t want any of you to have to deal with skin cancer. Ever. My favorite sunscreen is Neutrogena’s Ultra Sheer formula, which you can get in an aerosol can or a regular bottle! Oh, and this SPF 50 ChapStick. You don’t want burnt lips, either.

If you follow me on Twitter, you probably saw that I received a new iPhone case this weekend. I’m so, so happy with how it turned out, and I wanted to share this amazing store with you. Today’s Delight of the Day is the customizable monogrammed iPhone case from Kelly of Fast Track Promotions and Gifts, $20.25 shipped.
There are several options for you to choose from. First, you can decide if you want a hard case or a flexible plastic case. I went with the flexible case. It’s still fairly hard, and I think it will do a better job protecting my phone. Then you choose what color you want the case to be – clear, white, or black. I went with black because I have the black phone. Then you choose the pattern and the color you want. I chose quatrefoil, because it’s my latest obsession. If you email her, she can invert the colors, add colors, etc. She’s amazing. Then choose your monogram and place your order. You include exactly what you want in the “message to seller” box, and she’ll email you to further discuss things. She also sends you a picture of what it will look like before she prints it.
The best part? She shipped it the SAME day I ordered, and it arrived two days later. Enjoy your new case!
