The swimsuits I see popping up in department stores remind me of the tulips and crocuses rearing their heads in the garden. They’re reminders that the summer sun will soon be shining down in all its glory. But for many women, this explosion of color spells dread. After all, the last thing most women look forward to is the hunt for a new swimsuit. But fortunately, retro suits are all the rage this year. So why not give an authentic vintage version a chance? There are a variety of great vintage bathing suit styles available to suit any figure. And each decade offers its own special allure - from itsy bitsy bikinis to boy-cut wonders to classic 1940s glam. Just click SEE SLIDESHOW for some inspiration.
So you spend a good few months working on that beach bod, finally find an awesome swimsuit to show off all of that hard work, and then what… throw on that ratty old cover-up that’s been sitting in your closet for so many years that you can trace its beginnings to a time when Roxy made boardshorts and nothing else? Not if the designers over at Insight have anything to say about it! We first caught sight of the 80’s-inspired Australian label when select pieces (most notably the panda bum bikini and shorts) popped up at Urban Outfitters and promptly sold out. The super affordable tops, dresses, and shorts all have that “Where did you find that?!” quality that we secretly aim for every time we get dressed.
