Well Suited

What's the worse thing to shop for?  Bathing suits of course!

With only 2 days until I leave for one glorious week in the Florida Keys, I was still without bathing suit.  Oh sure, I had that ratty years-old suit with the stretched out straps and the see through bum.  So. Not. Acceptable.  But previous shopping trips had proved fruitless.

Until my lunch hour today!  Would you believe I found the absolutely perfect retro maillot during a 35 minute race against time?  That never happens!

My new suit makes me feel like a 60's sex goddess/movie star.  It's simple, elegant and retro in the best kind of way. 

I'm not a bikini gal and it's impossible to find cute one-pieces.  They are always so matronly, with outdated prints and miles of painful wires and layers of material.  I picked up this saucy little number at Swimwear Etc. , the price wasn't ridiculous AND it has UPF +50 sun protection!

This is how I imagine I look in it...

I cannot wait to frolic in the ocean in my fabulous new suit.  Thank you shopping gods!

I'd love to hear about your oh-so-perfect shopping find...

Written with love,
