okay- so i've ordered my swimsuit for my trip in april... PLEASE let it get here on time and fit me and/or have enough time for an exchange


now... i need a hat. now i know it might not be the most stylish thing but i dont like tanning... at all. my arms are a completely different shade than my legs because i wear pants so often

so, i need a beach hat. i want something big and floppy but my problem now is color... i'm wearing (hopefully) a white one piece (i know... should i just order a black one? its my skin tone i want it to look best with...)

white with white?


darker...

black-
they're all from the same site, luxurydivas.com

theres are reds which i might like.. might be bolder... but do i WANT to be bold? i like the white one, its sweet i think. they have ... pretty much all sorts of colors- i'm just so unsure as to what would look the best, i'm already going to be nervous about wearing a swimsuit in front of these gorgeous (and skinny) girls

oh- the swimsuit i hope to have is this


in white... unless you think i should reorder in a different color

http://www.amoeba.com/dynamic-images...postcard--.jpg refer to this pic and I think you'll see why white is great!

oh i know! now if only i could magically look like THAT!

It's good for your self esteem to pretend...That's what I do lol!

haha you made me laugh, i'll keep telling myself that

I think the swimsuit you chose is perfect, and I bet it looks great in white! It's got a really flattering cut that looks like it can emphasize your best parts and hide any tiny flaws.

I would definitely go with the white hat. I think it's the cutest of the bunch! Also, if you end up wearing the hat elsewhere, white goes with everything.

You'll look awesome in April!

I LOVE that swimsuit! I've been searching for one like it for the longest time!!! Where is it from?

I like the white hat as well.

Agreed on the white suit with the white hat. Especially because you could always throw some colour in there by way of a beach wrap, sari, or cover up, or fabulous accessories! Marilyn, watch out!

yay! i'm glad my taste isnt completely off

the swimsuit is from esther-williams.com its the sheath in white. they have lots of different patterns but no pictures of them erm... wth? the website is... depressing really i would never have bought it based on those pictures/info but i found out its the same swimsuit i'd seen with actual pictures of the different angles etc on different websites

the pictures they have there are just - not good. but that picture is from modcloth, where they renamed the swimsuit the 'bathing beauty' i also found it on various retro/rockabilly boutiques and found out that the swimsuit is from, guess where? esther williams. so i was like hmmm go to the source. so i did, and not only is it cheaper, i could actually buy it (most other shops sold out and i would have to wait on restock)

oooers! loves all but especially the polka dot one. it would look so glamorous. just add red lipstick and white sunglasses....rwoar.

psshh i have got red lipstick woman! i am obsessed with retro looks i just am so afraid i cant pull them off so i dont wear things like that often, but i've got the pin up style make up complete with lipstick!

i could never look like marilyn but i figure with my dark features i could eventually go for a bettie page =D

Marilyn is overdone anyways...Bettie Page is sooooo hawt right now

I say white hat with super colorful accessories. Have fun shopping!!
