Many weeks ago, I posted about what I thought would turn out to be the holy girl of my swimsuit coverup searches. Here it is.
It just looks so absolutely glamorous, I was sure it would fulfill all my fantasies. Whatever fantasies one might have about swim coverups… I t looks plush, chic and fashionably “I don’t care what I wear, but I still look like a complete knockout”
UPDATE: I bought the coverup. I actually called multiple stores anticipating its exact arrival date and sent my husband and daughter to purchase it for me as soon as possible. What a waste a good errand. It was $24.50 I believe, and I should have known better. I just must have had an optimistic moment. Either way, the photographer that took the photo above is absolutely gifted, because what it looks like outside of Caribbean water on a person that doesn’t look anorexic is a weird old lady robe. Cheap and ill-fitting. The ties hit the wrong place on my relatively average frame. This coverup is for a person that is at least 5’10″. Lucky you.
If I had to describe it in one word: J.U.N.K.
I continue to seek out the perfect swimsuit coverup. I have yet to find it. I think I like the idea of something like the photo below, but I have no idea where to find it. I think I need to increase my budget when it comes to swim coverup shopping, because clearly, so far in my experience, you get what you pay for.
