I could picture myself lounging every day on the beach this Summer; tanning, laughing, bonfires and barbecues. Those exact words flowed merrily through my mind last weekend when I purchased my new pink and black GUESS bikini. Every morning when I woke up, it was sitting there, still attached to the hanger, just staring at me. Its evilness conveying the words, "You'll have to wear me in two weeks!"
The places my imagination takes me. Scary, I know. Although, not as scary as the thought of how much I paid for it, knowing I'll probably never wear it. Definitely an impulse buy and a remorse purchase, as many of us have had when it comes to swim suits.
Okay, so let's face it; we all don't have bodies like Adriana Lima or Carolina Trentini, (nor should we strive to look like them). Finding a perfect swim suit for this summer is not that easy, let alone finding a perfect bikini. Seriously though, bikinis are so overrated. There are so many body types out there and frankly, there just aren't enough two-pieces to select from. No worries though, with Summer pretty much already here, many designers and labels have been coming out with one-piece swim suits. I know what you're thinking; not those terrible Speedo racer-backs that only competitive swimmers wear. Nope, not at all. From cute to classy, scandalous to coonservative, here are this summer's hottest one-pieces...
Sporty Yet Feminine
Halfway to a bikini, this swim suit by Billabong ($78.00) has a triangular, halter tie-up top that gives it that bikini look. Appropriate for girls with a muscular, athletic body. This swimsuit is perfect for the beach or swimming. The top has adjustable straps and padding, so it is suitable for a good work out in the swimming pool.

who would pay 135.00 for something that they would only wear when
they go to the beach or maybe as that halter top thing they were
talking about. i would buy it if it was less money. but still, it
is cute
