wine by the color

Saturday, February 21, 2009

First, there was the bikini. Then the tankini. Now, the monokini. Or, as I'll be calling it, the what.the.fuck-ini:





















This does not look comfortable or functional. Or good. It is unflattering, even to a model who probably weighs 120 pounds and is a size 2 and certainly did not have wine and cheese doodles for dinner last night. But enough about me.

And really, what's with the boogie board? As if. She'll be lucky to walk four feet in that get-up without a wardrobe malfunction. She is not engaging in any water sports dressed that way.

    No lie--she can't even stand up straight in that thing lest the groceries come tumbling out of the store. I wonder if it would be more slimming in black...

    Actually, there is a functional aspect - in a moment of looming romance (OK, romance is certainly the wrong word to describe this particular moment) you can grab that front piece and tear the whole thing off in one motion.

    Btw, Kelly-Girl, I live outside A2 and absolutely died laughing at your Beaver post. You need to write more.

    Wouldn't gravity do its thing pretty damn quick here in the real world? I mean, think about the physics of a swimsuit's fabric. This one is just totally at odds with itself. With our luck, it'll be like Uggs and NEVER GO AWAY.

    Jim, fair point.

    Uggs. If there is a more appropriately named fashion item, I don't know what it is...
