Swimwear That’s Eco-friendly and Adorable

The weather where I live, at the top of the Sacramento Valley, in Northern California, is HOT. For example, right now, it’s 105 F, at almost 6pm. Last night, I sent my boyfriend, who lives in Colorado, a text telling him that it was over 90 F, at 10pm.
We spend a lot of time trying to cool off in the water. I’m a fan of the creek, my kids prefer the pool.
I like to wear a sort of mismatched swim suit . A suit with pieces that go together, but are not matchy-matchy. Something like this suit that is currently on sale at Faeries Dance.com.
Ruffle Bikini
On sale for $77.95, regularly $120
It’s made of 90% certified organic cotton, no latex. It has a triangle top, a low-riding, ruffled bottom, and it’s adorable.
This bikini is more Bay’s style. She usually goes with a black triangle top, something skimpy on the bottom.

This bikini top has a little shell charm and the bottoms have circle-ties. I like the photo print on the bottom. It reminds me of an OP suit that I had back in the 80s. This suit is made out of84% Polyster that has been created from a combination of recycled plastic bottles and Spandex.

I’m going to get one of these for my girlfriend as a holiday treat. It’s great how much choice there is out there for Eco-Friendly products these days!
I bet she’s going to love it. There were so many to chose from – it was hard to narrow it down to just a couple for my post.
