Most people that know me know that I grew up on the coast with beach access at the tip of my fingers. Now I live in a city that only offers water to rich people with yachts on a man-made lake, so I feel pretty deprived whenever the warmer weather comes around. This brings me to swimwear and my picky love of what to wear in the sun and sand.
It seems that animal prints, patriotic colors, one shoulder looks, and boho/ethnic inspiration are in this year. I've also seen a couple of tie-dye and geometric prints, as well as lots of sheer swim covers over at Victoria's Secret website. These trends don't really seem so outstanding to me compared to last year. We've had the boho trend, as much as I love it, for quite some time now. The patriotic colors will no doubt tie in with the fifties trend of last year. I can work with both of these, but the animal prints is what I'm really tired of. If I see another leopard print bikini, and I don't care what color it's in, I'm going to retreat back to the city for the rest of the summer.
