ABOUT ROATAN VIBES BOUTIQUE

“Roatan Vibes is an online boutique offering Tropical-ish concept designs for clients looking for Chic and Sophisticated styles without compromising comfort and quality.”

“We like to bring Caribbean-inspired prints and colors to our collection. Highlighted are the Flora and Fauna to create a FUN & FRESH look transporting you to your favorite tropical destination.”

​The first time I spoke with Jinniva on the phone we had an immediate connection and bond! I could feel her energy, positive vibe, love for life and fashion as we spoke! It’s that feeling you get when you connect with someone right away! Jinniva and I were initially connected through our mutual friend Gail Gensler. (You can read about Gail HERE.) I had seen Gail wearing beautiful clothes from Roatan Vibes Boutique on Instagram! The colors and designs are truly a tropical vision of loveliness and so on trend right now! There hasn’t been a single piece that hasn’t grabbed my attention as I scroll through the squares. If you’re an avid FTF follower you know I’m all about bright, unique, comfortable pieces and am especially loving all of the tropical prints this summer! Jinniva was kind enough to allow me to pick an outfit, which she then gifted me.

My Roatan Vibes Look

I was thrilled to be gifted this body suit and wide leg pants, which when worn together look like a jumpsuit! I have to admit that I stepped out of my comfort zone; and you know I recommend you do so as well now and then. This is the first body suit I’ve owned in forever! My torso is long and most body suits don’t fit correct. This one fit beautifully and was the perfect length. Running to the bathroom was also a concern, but the closure is super easy to work. The high waisted pants hold you in nicely! Sometimes I’m challenged with side zip pants but these pants didn’t pose the challenges my body type sometimes encounters. My curvy body was fine with the side zip…winning! (Always be willing to try something you normally wouldn’t because you might surprise yourself – in this case the bodysuit and side zip!!). The pants are lined until the knee for a smooth silhouette; and they have pockets! Since the bodysuit is fitted, the wide legs are balanced out. You know that feeling you get when you put on an outfit and feel fantastic and confident…you walk and stand taller and others take notice…that’s this outfit!

I paired my outfit with my gold wedge sandals and gold accessories! The flower in my hair came in the packaging with my outfit so of course I had to wear it in my photos! Accessories always complete a look!

These two pieces can easily be worn with other items. The body suit can be matched with shorts, a skirt or jeans. Yes, you can wear shorts at any age if you’re comfortable in them! You know I’m a fan of shorts all summer long! The pants can be worn as a swimsuit cover up and with other tops. There will be so many colors that can be paired with the pants so it’s really just your preference!

My preference is to almost always be fancy. It’s who I am and how I’m most comfortable. However, this outfit is easily dressed down – think about wearing flat sandals and even flip flops, add a floppy hat and beach bag or tote! You’d be beach ready!

Oh the places I will go wearing my Roatan Vibes outfit…tropical beach vacations, backyard parties, girl’s night out or lunch dates, date night with hubby, a summer festival now that we’re able to get out more…my list is endless! Where would you wear my tropical look? This is a classic outfit of superb quality that will be in style for years to come! It’s perfect for any summer event!

Let’s Chat

Whenever possible, I love supporting small women owned businesses and collaborating with others. Together we can achieve so much more than we can alone!

Gail states, “Female collaboration is an incredibly powerful force. This is what women in their midlife can use to combat institutional ageism. It’s how we can force advertisers to stop pigeonholing us into stereotypical, traditional ideas of mature women. But most importantly, it’s how women improve themselves, as one.” I totally agree with Gail! If you’re interested in collaborating with any of us, please leave a comment or send an email.

A friendly reminder to always have fun and wear the things that you love, brings you joy and happiness! Roatan Vibes does all those things for me! Why not live life vibrantly! Would you agree? Leave us a comment! We love to hear from you!

    I have always loved jumpsuits, they are casual yet have a
    flair that takes you to an evening out type feeling. I have a short and fluffy body type , if you get a good fit in a
    jump suit, you feel taller and it can hide some figure flaws. Love the background for these photos. Fabyans Park in Batavia, Ill. I went on family picnics and played
    there.

      Hi Kenlyn!

      Yes, a bodysuit is a great choice especially if it fits you! I was happy to have the great fit of the Raotan Vibes bodysuit!

      Yes, Fabyan Park has a beautiful scenic grounds, which is perfect for pictures!
