Sea Creatures

I've been working, working, working... NONSTOP! That's the reason for my absence in my beloved blog. I kind of tried to relax on a trip to Cancun with my parents and my friend Cecilia but it seems I'm lazy but not the relaxing type. I even had some spa time, delicious, but even then I couldn't. I was writing this post in my mind while getting a hot-stone-massage.

Anyway, I had a great time and got to wear my new turtle swimsuit. You probably already know how much I love creatures on my clothes and this was the ultimate finding. I'm not sure if I look like a little girl or just a crazy-manrepeller-wannabe-grown-woman, but I love, love, love it. Maybe I'm over bikinis. Maybe not.

*Español:
No he podido escribir, lo odio pero he tenido muchísimo trabajo y me he enfermado cientos de veces. Pero bueno, me pude ir unos días a Cancún con mis papás y Ceci, mi amiga. Traté de disfrutar (lo logré) y relajarme (no tanto) al máximo, pero me di cuenta que para ser una persona considerada floja no soy muy buena para eso de la relajación... Mi papá incluso me invitó dos horas en el spa y mientras me daban un masaje de piedras calientes pensaba en como iba a escribir este post. 
Lo mejor creo que fue por fin poder usar mi traje de baño de tortugas. Lo amo con locura como cualquier tipo de prenda con animalitos. No sé si parece que traigo un traje de niña, pero qué más da. Repito que lo amo. ¿Será que dejaré los bikinis para siempre? Habrá que ver.  

What I Want Today: High Waisted Bikinis

I love retro clothes, and I don't really like the sun. Which means... I've been trying a very vintage/retro approach to going to the beach, think hats and huge sunglasses. But with the swimwear options available, it's not easy. Recently I've seen more one-piece swimsuits in magazines (like this one), but what I'm really liking is high-waisted bikins. I think they're super cute and a great alternative to looking different. And not naked.

My mom is coming to Savannah next week (yay!), so I'll try to find one for her to get me... Or maybe I'll look for one on my trip to NYC (I'm so excited about that, too!). Meanwhile, these are my favorites.

My favorite! Perfection ar Anthropologie.

Mismatched at Urban Outfitters.

 Floral at Urban Outfitters.

Psychedelic at ShopBop.

So now you know, you'll never see me at the beach without a hat, huge sunglasses, a maxi dress and SPF 50 because I'm terrified of skin cancer. But with these vintage inspired two-pieces, I could make an exception. And maybe next time I got to the beach I'll take off my dress.
