Issues of Importance

The onset of warm weather always causes me to stop and ponder the deeper issues of life.

Today’s issue? Swimwear.

I have spent far too many summers at Folly Beach trying to save the innocent beach-dwellers from seeing a bit too much of what I like to call my “goodies.” So, this season, I’ve decided to invest in a one-piece.

It’s surprising, how, in 2008, there are still a scary number of bathing suits that look like this:

“Moroccan print” by Land’s End, $54.50-$64.50 (also available in red/orange).

However, the extreme glamour of some of these suits blows my MIND.

“Retro Funk” by Pearl Swimwear, $90.

“Gold ring deep-v halter” by J. Crew, $85.

And, finally, my favorite:

“Audrey” by Princesse Tam-Tam, 95 €/ $148.50.

Obviously, I love an elegant black swimsuit, but would also be open to gray, navy, chocolate brown, or a fun color like kelly green or yellow.

Any suggestions?
