but then there is the issue of the public pool





What's the deal with all of the cute one-pieces lately? I love it. The problem is, how do I get a tan before I even think of wearing one of these?

When I was younger and I'd say, "I wish I was tanner, " my brother would say, "D.J. Tanner?"

cute suits! Unfortanetly I need a lot more than a tan to look good in a swimsuit :) I need long board shorts.

where is the white one from? that, and the last black one are my favs.

Sarah said...

Do you guys make it to the public pool in the summer? I want to hear about that.

abby said...

Amy, I do not even know what you are talking about. You do not need shorts!

Sarah, the white one is from K Line Swimwear. We actually have never really gone to the public pool here. But last summer Utah had this epidemic of a disease you get when there's feces in the pool. So I'm not sure I want to go.

Love the suits. I've noticed a lot more cute suits this season too. But I have the dilema again that I don't want to NOT wear shorts, and a lot of them don't look cute with shorts. And Abs, you are not even in my league of paleness. I have learned that you just have to accept it though. Laugh at all the other suckers that will eventually look like brown leather when they're in they're 50's and we will look like babies with our smooth, wrinkle-less skin.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the polka dot one! So cute! Also, that's so funny about the DJ Tanner thing because my husband always has little comments like that lol.

I remember that.

oh gosh - those are seriously cute. I'm way lame and wear the same suits every year. I even still wear my "slim-suit" that I bought after my first baby was born - when I was 20 pounds heavier. Those suckers work, by the way. :p Maybe with our next paycheck I'll get a new one. (That is only funny if you know that our "next" paycheck will be in like 2040 when Kyle graduates, right?)

Bon: Pale power.

Hanna: I am feeling your pain. You are way way way closer than us.

These are REALLY cute suits. I really like the polka dot one, but they are all adorable.

We have a neighborhood pool that just opened for the season. I need to go find a cute suit before I make my "inaugural" appearance there.

Okay, I love these suits. I am so into anything retro and 50s-ish. And polka dots? I have much love for the dots of polka. Here in my little corner of the world, these kind of suits do not actually exist. And so I am stuck with my bright red Nike sports monstrosity, as I refuse to buy a tiny bikini or the fugly haiwaiian print/skirt thing. Sigh.

abby said...

kim, they do exist in your corner of the world! it is called urbanoutfitters.com.
