It was a beautiful day in Miami, warm, spacious, breezy beaches, children digging for seashells, people flying kites, people getting tans, and people getting drunk. I was a bit of the latter, I wanted a tan; but I wanted some peace and quiet. I wanted the experience of Florida’s southern beaches, but not the rowdiness and recent strict curfews of South Beach itself……so where did I go? Bal Harbour. It’s upscale, it’s an Orthodox Jewish haven, it’s a ritzy getaway for families……lots of families. So I needed something that wasn’t too raunchy, but also something refined and that accentuated my curves; (and cleverly tucked-in some of that pesky Covid-flab). A high-waisted bikini set was the idea I was going for, and for enough to show my tummy, still get the tan, (and still look my age), a strappy bandeau. I am huge on sustainability (as one may have read in my bio or previous posts), this concern equally applies towards my apparel choice for swimwear. After much research, I grew interest in Frankie’s Bikinis and Mara Hoffman both brands indulge themselves in promoting the use of recycled nylon and polyester by the name of “Repreve,” (you can read a bit about the science behind it here: https://unifi.com/repreve). After heading over to one of my signature go-to’s “Everything But Water,” I spotted this adorable white two-piece reminiscent of old starlet photos through Hollywood’s golden era. The white swimsuit was a trend…as you can see by the likes of Ava Gardner, Rita Hayworth and of course Marilyn. Coincidentally, it happens to mirror my own selection for the outing.
