Swimsuit season

While I am so not a beach person (too many bad lobster-like sunburns in my youth), I find myself drawn to all the new swimsuits every spring. I especially like fun, pin-up, vintage looking ones. I've rocked two basic black tankinis for a while now, liking that they keep me mostly covered up while showing off my best - ahem - assets. But last year I finally decided that I liked my round tummy and bought a bikini. Still basic black, however.

You can also see my hair just-barely-grown-out from shaving it last summer.

But, when I saw this cute vintage-y polka dot top on sale at Target I fell in love.


However, due to a lack of bottoms in my size, I opted to leave it. But now I find myself pining. It also comes in green and black and has plenty of availability online.

So, cute but ultimately impractical? Should I go back and try other colors and see if I can find some britches that cover me bum?
