Get Your Goddess On
By Skirt.com, Tuesday, June 7, 2011, 3 commentsBless the new breed of swimsuit designers who help us hide our (real or imagined) physical flaws: breasts that are too small, tummies that are too big, and the ironically named love handles. This one-shoulder ruched suit is the beachwear equivalent of a Greek Goddess toga, created from Italian-made Lomellina® that feels like a second skin.
It looks so good I hate to get it wet.

Ode To Trying On Bathing Suits and Other Summer Fun
By FranneS, Tuesday, June 7, 2011Ahh the dog days of summer. Lounging at the pool in my new bikini. Baby oil mixed with iodine to give me the "coppertone" tan. Lemon juice in my hair to make it blonder. Bottles of coke stashed in my pool bag cause no glass allowed at the pool. Lifeguards with zinc oxide on their noses.
NOT
That's not how my summers went growing up.
Sizzling Suits
By Skirt.com, Friday, June 3, 2011As the weather heats up, we all want to cool down and relax by the pool, which means donning a swimsuit. But, never fear, this year you don’t have to go on a crash diet or cover up with an oversized shirt or sarong. This summer, less isn’t more. Trade that string bikini for a sexy and fun Vintage Bathing Suit that fits your personality and maintains modesty. The ‘50s inspired looks are fabulous on any shape or size, and the wide variety of styles lets you pick how much skin to show.
Last chance for the little skirt
By ktelega, Tuesday, September 7, 2010There it hangs in my closet, tags dangling: a reminder of the many times I talked myself out of going to the pool or lying out in the sun. The one-piece bathing suit looks pretty good on me, but it has an unfortunate flaw: somebody put a little skirt on it.
hello bathing suit
By Kittyboy, Wednesday, July 14, 2010, 2 commentsMy last blog post was entitled “bye bye bathing suit” and here is a quote from it: “I have now totally abandoned the swimsuit search …”
Two days after making that statement I purchased a new bikini.
But, you see, I really had abandoned looking for a swimsuit. Finding one that flattered me (as much as a couple of postage stamps held together with string can flatter) was pure chance.
bye bye bathing suit
By Kittyboy, Sunday, July 11, 2010, 3 comments#1 on my summer semi-sabbatical “to-do” list was “Start Walking” because I am woefully out of shape and need to exercise. And I’ve actually been doing this. I walk about 4 miles twice a week in the 90+ degree Louisiana heat—so it’s a good, toxin-releasing workout.
Granted, I don’t think I now look GREAT {naked}, but I’m getting toned and trim and I look BETTER.
Or so I thought.
It's Tankini Time!
By skirtySteph, Tuesday, June 29, 2010, 7 commentsI've decided that the difference between the old me and the new me is that the new me wears a Tankini.
And not a hot, skimpy Tankini like the ones they show in the Victoria Secret catalogue.
But one that really covers. The kind that pregnant women wear. Only I'm not pregnant.
