Swimsuit Season

It's December but I'm already dreaming of swimsuits... I'm going to Puerto Rico in two weeks (two weeks!!!) and then off to Miami after that. I found these fun vintage reproduction swimsuits by Esther Williams here. I'd take any one of these swimsuits:





Of course, I'd love a real life version of this one too:

I'm just looking, though-- this girl is POOR! I can't even afford to go to PR and Miami, although both trips are already paid for (or on the credit card), so I'm going! I'm also not much in swimsuit shape-- the holiday season has paid its toll. I'm trying to motivate myself to go get on the treadmill. Hmmm...
