Sixties Swim Style

Hi Guys!
Here is a vintage swimsuit look I wore recently for a friend's pool party. It's completely thrifted- in fact, the swim separates I bought separately because I so didn't love the floral bottom they had- one of those super high 80s cuts. I much prefer the coverage and cut of these little bo peep high-waisted boyshorts and this way it recalls an earlier 1960s vintage look :) linking up at Not Dead Yet Style &  ta-dah Tuesday!




















Outfit details:
Swim top- thrifted
Swim bottoms-thrifted
Vintage sandals- thrifted
Parasol- from an Asian Festival years ago
Patent tote- free (gift)
Do you have any vintage or vintage-inspired bathing suit looks? I'd love to hear about them!

    This is so cute, sexy and stylish. I love it (again!)

    Why don't I have friends with pools?

    Nice, nice. I love the top pattern.....reminds me of sun-dresses from that time.

    If I looked this good in a swimsuit I'd wear them to the grocery store like we use to back in the 60's! I love this look.
    You wearing this at the Thrift Store Runway? I'm going to go check. ;)
