Swimwear

I suppose it was only a matter of time until my interest in yard sales, thrift stores, and "old stuff" turned in the direction of fashion.

I've suddenly decided that what I want, what I really want this summer, is a 1950's bathing suit.

So, since I've found this urge to channel my inner Marilyn, I decided to use Polyvore to show you just how fabulous 1950's-style swimwear can be.

You can click through each of the above sets to see where you can buy these suits. Unfortunately, they're a little on the pricy side. Glamour like this doesn't come cheap I guess.

There's also this fabulous suit:



And this one, which I love:



And if you're looking for the real deal, this vintage Jantzen yellow gingham suit is available on eBay right now:



And this vintage red suit is currently available on etsy:



LOVE. IT. ALL.
