Modest Florida Summer Fashion

As the heat is kicking in down here in Florida, I am reminded that I have NOTHING to wear.  The Florida heat in the summer is like a toasty day that wraps around your body like a hot steamy blanket.  Somehow I managed to get by in Oklahoma with jeans and capri pants in the summer, but that doesn't cut it here.  Most people where cheekers bikinis and whimsical short sundresses each and everyday but that won't cut it for LDS standards.
How's a Mormon Girl to survive!  Knee length shorts are a fashion buzz kill that I find intolerable.  Skirts, while fashionably acceptable, can be binding and accidentally indecent when dealing with a two year old all day.
All I can think to do is invent/design something for me to wear.  If anyone has any suggestions on clothing or websites to keep me modest, comfortable and fashionable at the beach this summer please leave a comment. 
Otherwise I will keep you posted on what I come up with.
