Swimsuit inspiration
We’re back from our fantastic, sunny work-cation in Palm Springs!
I’ve got some photos of the swimsuit I made for the trip that need editing, but in the meantime, I thought I’d share some of the suits that inspired me.
In the end, I went for full support with underwire, a midrise bottom (love the high waist look, but an extreme high waist is not for me), and a really awesome photo print.
I particularly love the Malia Mills suits. They are pricey, but I love that they are sized by cup, mix and match, and include slightly larger cup sizes.
If 2 pieces aren’t your thing, be sure to check out my swim pinterest board, because I rounded up some awesome one-pieces there as well.

Looking forward to related posts. I’m looking for a good, vintage inspired swimsuit as well. Perhaps I will be inspired to make one.

Have to say this is the first time Ive ever anticipated seeing a picture of a woman in a bathing suit. But you have done your job well. I await with baited breath!
