Eeenie Meenie Cherry Print Bikini!

April 28, 2013 · 46 Comments

Swimwear – Esther Williams

I have just got back from a wonderful holiday at the beach! To make the most of this beautiful April weather we booked a hotel and did absolutely nothing for a few days. Most of our time was spent at the beach, lying in the hot sun and swimming. The waves were perfect and refreshingly cool, and by some miracle I even managed to avoid getting burned!

    Oh what a perfect bikini! These photos makes me want to invest in a cute pair (despite my lack of confidence when sporting bathers haha)

    The holiday sounds so relaxing, I envy you!

    So jealous! The sunshine here today is amazing, I half did think swimming could be an option if only I was closer to the ocean and didn't have a sinus infection.

    I love that bikini! Nothing like a good cherry print 🙂

    I love your bikini and your wonderful figure! Also I'm jealous of you going to the beach; the weather here is still nowhere near warm enough for me to go without a coat most days, never mind wear a bikini on the beach!

    How cute are you!? Seriously!!! I can't handle it! I don't think I've told you, but I adore your hair cut! It always looks so marvelous and adorable.

    And this swimsuit is perfection and looks darling on your! I've had an insane time finding a two-piece that I like lately, that I turned to one pieces for the first time in years. I wish I'd looked at this set! The bottoms on these are just precious.

    This looks like a vintage editorial from Vogue! You are just stunning, and remind me so much of Marilyn Monroe. I'm craving a beach visit right now, just to take pictures like yours.
    I just wanted to say that it is also a pleasure visiting your blog whenever a new post is up! Your outfits are consistently beautiful and you have such a classic beauty about you that is just so rare nowadays. 🙂

    Your holidays sounds wonderful, glad you had a good time. You look absolutely picture perfect with that umbrella, bikini, and lipstick on the beach. You have the best figure for 50's style clothes and swimwear. Gorgeous images, love the last one.

    Ahhhh so beautiful! You're stunning in that gorgeous vintage style bikini, so very Marilyn yet again, but so very you too 🙂 Those are some lovely beach poses, and thanks so much from all us white skinned gals for making porcelain skin look so seductive on the beach. Glad you had a great holiday my dear.

    Esther Williams swimwear is the best!!! I have that same bikini in another print. You have an amazing body! Good job at avoiding sunburn! I went canoeing in a river last weekend (didn't wear any glamorous swimsuits lol) and I kept my pale skin in tact as well, except for my hairline. Booo
