while it may not feel like summer quite yet (at least in chicago), memorial day is a couple weeks away which means beaches, boats and bikinis are also right around the corner. swimsuits are just about the only thing i don't enjoy shopping for, so i haven't bought a new one in a year or two. i'm thinking about adding a chic one piece to my beach bag this year, like the anthropologie white one-piece (waiting/hoping/wishing for it to hit the sale racks). 

i also love mixing separates to come up with lots of different bikini options on the cheap. an orange bottom seems like a good buy - paired with anything from navy tribal print to white crochet... or maybe bright pink polka dots... endless possibilities!
