check me out: ready for summer

Have you noticed? One piece swimwear is back in a big way. So despite my fear of vintage swimwear I absolutely had to own this suit!

I usually sport 2 pieces, but this print is so ridiculously flattering that even though it’s pretty demure, it feels sexier than even the itsy bitsiest of the teeny weeniest.

  1. I too normally opt for a sexy bikini, but your hot one piece has inspired me to broaden my swimwear horizons. Love the sunglasses too

  3. Thanks Ladies!
    Yes, I was sorta sweating over posting this, but I just love it SO much!
    Terren, yes, Olivia is closing Olipom, but that just means that Bows & Arrows will be getting even BETTER. We went flea market shopping for Bows & Arrows last week so keep checking back!

  7. I get skeptical about buying thrifted bathing suits, but I always find adorable ones ready for the picking. This one is especially sweet, I love the patterns!

  8. Wow. That is a stunner! Almost makes a swim-a-phobe like me want to splash around a bit.
