Totally Crucial Absinthe Bathing Suit

Tracey Duncan — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 16:47:59 +0000

I have a confession to make. I’ve been wearing the same bikini for, like, six years. Maybe more, even, I’m not sure. It isn’t that I don’t have any other bathing suits, I just don’t wear them. Because none of them are as perfect and comfortable as the one that I love. Until now.

Seriously, how adorable is this? It’s modest, it’s sweet, and it has extremely well thought out details like the velvet bow and glass buttons. Oh yeah, and it’s fully lined, in case you actually wanted to wear it in water or something. Available for $140 from La Drama Queen.

Totally Crucial Absinthe Bathing Suit

Marvelous Modcloth

Don’t fall in love with anything on Modcloth.com unless you plan on buying it right then and there. One disastrous click of your mouse on any other page or site could mean you’ve lost that piece forever. That’s how quickly the merchandise on this super-cool vintage site goes out of stock.

Modcloth is pure and innocent happiness — kind of like Saturday morning cartoons. Its quirky, colorful, happy designs make me want to pull a West Side Story Maria and serenade the city about how utterly glorious it is to be a girl.

I will hush up now and let the clothes do the talking. Here are some of my favorite Modcloth pieces of the moment – there’s no doubt in my mind they’ll all be out of stock by the time I post their photos:

Origami Blouse -- $49.99

Zen Garden Two-Piece Swimsuit -- $89.99

Acapulco Dress -- $49.99

Vintage Etienne Aigner Oxfords -- $39.99

Vintage Starburst Clutch -- $29.99

I Love This Swimsuit (4X Only)

Isn’t this swimsuit to die for? Unfortunately, I just found it in the sales section, which means that 4X girls will get some stylish solutions, but not me! This gorgeous halter-top number has some great red straps that arc backwards in a cool design and a dark navy ground to minimize lumps and bumps. I love the fact that the underwire doesn’t make it look like a support garment (small feat right there!), and it even has ruching details. Adore!

The same style is also available in other colors, so have a look and let me know if you’d wear this suit. Sigh. I really feel like I missed my chance with this one.

Spring Break Swim

Are you headed out on a spring vaca or spring break? I found some really cool cover-ups over at Always for Me– they’re simple, but they’re devastatingly hot! I can imagine these worn on a cruise or or right at the pool. You can wear a strapless dress with all your bandeau swimsuits, too: just gorgeous. Available in tons of colors.

Check out Always for Me Sport.
