Wear Your Sun Protection Daily
SPF Addict sent us these sun protective gear fashions to review: The Chief Blonde is wearing SPF Addict Donna’s Perfect Dress ($55), St. Francis Couture Belt (), Calvin Klein Heels (). The Chief Blonde’s daughter is wearing SPF Addict California Breeze Jacket ($60), white shirt dress (), Joe’s Jeans Sandals ()
My lovely daughter will soon be heading back to college, where she plans to finish her degree in Graphic Design. I am so proud of her on so many levels: her dedication to her craft, her clear headedness, her great choices in friends, her belief in the Lord.
Also, I am very proud that she has always embraced taking care of her pale skin. Just like me she realizes that no amount of tanning will ever produce any more than a wicked burn. Still as a college student and young girl bombarded by images of lithe tan bodies, she does experience frustration.
People with skin like ours, have few choices when it comes to summer. We can either lather on smelly, sticky sunscreen everyday or stay indoors. Another choice is covering up with sun protective clothing, but face it, most sun protective clothing is UGLY…not fashionable at all. However SPF Addict approached me to review some items from their line and I have to say they are breaking the mold for sun protective gear:
Just look how adorable my daughter looks in the SPF Addict California Breeze Jacket. This lightweight utilitarian jacket is certainly fashion forward, cute enough to pair with summer dresses but with sun coverage enough to wear to the first big football games. I love that it has a UPF 50+ with a vented back panel, high collar with snap buttons for extra sun protection during the day, belted waist. The back open vent allows for breathability.
I am wearing the SPF Addict Donna’s Perfect Dress. I can’t rave about this dress enough. I can see myself wearing this poolside over a bathing suit. As well, I can pair it with heels and hat, and then spend a whole day shopping outside downtown without fear of burning. The bonus is that I don’t have to worry about sticky sunscreens!
The sun doesn’t take a day off and neither should your sun protection
My daughter and I realize that even though we live in Michigan, there is no day off from protecting your skin. That’s why SPF addict is not a seasonal line. Harmful UV rays still exist during the fall and winter months and on cloudy days in the spring and summer. While we will still need to wear sunglasses, hats, and use some sunscreen, we realize that SPF addict can offer us sun protection in our daily wear.

I would like to buy my boyfriend the black diamond. He has a muscle disease that means he cannot be in the sun and the protection from these shirts could be a game changer for him.
Donna’s Perfect Dress because I love stripes
I like the Cruzin Hoodie. Will look so cute with leggings for the fall months.
I would love the “free” tshirt since it has all the birds all over it! fun!
I like the Swing Tee! It looks so comfortable. I would wear doing my yard work.
I would like the dressup slimdown leggings. I really need a pair of black leggings and if they were high SPF also that would be a bonus!!
I love the SUZIEQ long sleeve shirt and Rock Your Soul shirt. I’ve been looking for stylish spf clothes that I’d actually like wearing for a while and found a lot of pieces here that I love. I don’t do well in the sun, no matter how much sunscreen and how high the spf, I still blister and burn.
I like Julie’s Wrap
becasue it is pretty.
I would love the swing tee shirt because it looks so comfortable and is not tight fitting.
I’m lovin’ the California Dreamin’ Poncho. One size fits all! I can wear it anywhere.
I like the Dressup Slimdown legging.
I like the Marina Cardigan because it would be great for home and work.
I would buy the girl on the go skirt, I didn’t know there was such a wide availability of SPF clothes and skin cancer runs in my familu
I would love to have the Marina Cardigan! Looks warm and comfy!
I really like the Cruzin Hoodie. It’s so cute! I’m a huge hoodie fan when it becomes fall/winter time. I live in them practically!
My favorite would be california dream poncho. I like how versatile it is and comfortable it looks.
I wear a LOT of black, it’s just what usually appeals to me. When I checked out their website, the first item that jumped out at me was the ‘Rosie Top’! It’s a nicely fitted, solid black long sleeve top & I just know I’d wear it a lot if I had one! 🙂
I like the Neva Caftan. I’m a fan of the sleeves
I like their Swing Tee! Nice cut…and nice colors!
julies wrap is pretty
