Spring has sprung!

The days are getting warmer, which means it's time to bask in the sunlight... and dip into the water! It's time to get out the swimsuits! Or if you're like me, time to be on the hunt for a new one for this year.

Since I have unwanted bodily protrusions, namely my belly, I usually go for styles with more coverage, such as one pieces and tankinis. (Maybe one day I'll be able to strut a bikini. <-- Wishful thinking.) However, as cute as tube top one pieces can be, I try to steer clear of them. The last swimsuit I purchased was a tube top one piece, and it was a big mistake. Whenever I wore it, I kept having to pull it up after it had fallen too low on my chest. What an annoyance! So here are my picks for swim attire.


Betsey Johnson - Hot Dot tankini top ($98) & bikini bottom ($66)



Gap - polka dot one piece ($39.50)



Newport - polka dot maillot ($39)



Newport - black crochet tankini ($19.99)



Newport - brown crochet tankini ($29)

I seem to lean towards polka dots and crochet this time.
