Retro One Piece Swimsuits Are Really Making a Splash

I am very sorry for the very corny title. I had to though--once I thought it in my head, I wanted to share. How can you not appreciate that beautiful and witty play on words!?

Anyway, I've been seeing more and more retro style one-piece swimsuits. They are popping up everywhere on beaches and at pools.I've noticed that this trend goes along with the very popular and upcoming Rockabilly style (see my past post about Rockabilly style if you don't know what I am talking about). You can trend this swimsuit out even more with a floral headband and some bright colored lipstick. 

I'll admit after seeing The Notebook, I wanted a swimsuit just like Rachel McAdams had. Heck, I wanted Ryan Gosling just like Rachel McAdams (Allie) had. It was a perfect example of a classic 50's swimsuit that was modest yet adorable. I can't wait to put my usual string bikini far, far in the back of my drawer and try out a retro swimsuit! 

Rockabilly Hair Accessory

Rockabilly fashion is IN. It is trending so fast right now! If you don't know anything about Rockabilly, it is one of the earliest styles of rock and roll music that dates back to the 1950's. Rockabilly is a combination of the words "rock and roll" and "hillbilly". Get it? It's kind of clever! With the Rockabilly style of music, of course it came with a trend in clothing and hairstyles.

A Rockabilly style in fashion includes big bows (such as this one, pictured above) on top of the head, pencil skirts, opened toed heels, polka dots, poofed bangs, flowers in the hair, loose wavy hair, plenty of make up, and of course tattoos. It's a very unique style that seems to be a mix of punk, 50's style, indie, and retro. It's a very fun and up-and-coming style that you will be seeing a lot of in the fashion world!
