Beach Trip Essentials - Summer Lovin'

Happy Friday loves!
I'm SO happy its Friday, and it's a long weekend here in the US, Memorial Day weekend!
I am going on a little mini trip with the boyfriend, to get away from work and stresses and just relax! Where am I going? Can you guess from the Style board posted below???
Also, I have some great news, my paper is finally accepted in the Journal of Biological Chemistry!! It will be online sometime soon, but it is just in time for me to present my research at an international research conference in July in BARCELONA!!!!! It has always been a dream of mine ever since I was in high school to go to Barcelona, and now it is happening, on a business trip nonetheless, but I will be able to explore the city (and bring you MORE conference/work fashion when the time comes!). I also will be jet setting off to the greek islands right after the conference to visit my family for a week and a half, so I AM SO EXCITED!!! I have needed a vacation since I went to Hawaii last September, so I am way over due, even with this little mini getaway this weekend with the boy!
Well, since my trip is 2 months away, I am day dreaming about afternoons on the beach, with no cares in the world. I LOVE research and it's my passion, but sometimes you need to step away from the bench and unplug for a week or two (or three!). Here is going to be my uniform this weekend and in July when I am traveling and on the beach: I have picked out some bikinis and cover ups and accessories! Barcelona also has some beautiful beaches so I am sure I can double use outfits for both my island excursion and Barcelona!

Summer Fashions

Sorry for being MIA the last week or two... work has been so crazy! I have been a bum and haven't really had a chance to take some pictures of any recent outfits. BUT! I have recently purchased several items from Forever 21 that I am eagerly awaiting, so once I have those, expect some outfit posts :D
In the meantime, as I sit at my desk at work (Shhhh!!! I am waiting for an experiment to finish....) I made a polyvore board with my picks for Summer fashion! I'm all about bright colors (blue (both light and dark), coral, green, black and white), and waves (literal catching waves at the beach or hair! haha! sorry, I'll stop the puns...). I am also in love with these strappy sandals. I bought a pair of sandals from Forever21 to update my summer shoes.
I love these relaxing, laid back prints and colors, they just make summer feel that much more special! What are your favorite colors/trends for this summer?
Let me know in the comments below!
PS. I want to buy all of theseeeeeee especially the Michael Kors tote and satchel...but alas I will have to settle with the 13$ tote I recently bought from Forever21. :)
