Good morning Knuckles!
It's pretty obvious that I love to shop; I find it both fun and relaxing. I can't really relate to women who don't like to shop, except on one occasion: SHOPPING FOR SWIMSUITS. Shopping for swimsuits is stressful. It is even more stressful when you haven't bought a swimsuit in over 10 years, and since then you've had two kids.
Knowing the beach/pool are in my future this summer, I headed to Macy's to find a suit.
The only thing worse about swimsuit shopping is when you walk into the section and a middle-aged salesman walks over and says, "Hello Miss! Are you looking for something in particular?" It is so embarrassing when old men say "Hello Miss!"
I didn't want to openly cringe because he was genuinely trying to be helpful. In fact, he started pointing to different styles, asking "Are you looking for a one-piece? Two-piece? Padded? Cups?" He pulled out a bunch of suits that I would never wear in a million years, and I could just feel the blood rush to my face and droplets of pure BO stream out of my pits.
Anyhow, after an uncomfortable hour or so, I ended up buying the swimsuit below. It's exactly what I was looking for, and it was on sale!

I really love the rest of this outfit, particularly the turban. And aren't the sneakers adorable?
I just realized this is my 100th post! Wow. Thanks for reading, everyone!
Have a great weekend!
Sometimes I feel that buying a swimsuit is more of a hassle than anything else lol. I like the one you picked and I love those sunglasses!
ReplyDeleteBuying swimsuits definitely can be stressful! Especially since there are SO many different styles to choose from. I really like the one you bought though! I am a new follower from the aloha hop by the way :)

I just went through almost the same thing. I have not bought a swimsuit since High School, until last week.
