Stop Staring’s Dottie Retro Swimsuit

You may remember us raving about Stop Staring when we tried their dresses last year; full of retro-inspired chic, Stop Staring are one of our favourite online shops, so we were delighted to have spotted Dottie!

Dottie is an adorable retro swimsuit with ruffles and cute polka dots; it’s made of stretch poplin cotton to hold you in and give you the curvy figure you’ve always dreamed of! The swimsuit $92, comes in US sizes S to 2XL and is available from Get Go Retro.

Paradise Cove Garbo Bikini at Get Go Retro

Another stunner is this Garbo Bikini by Paradise Cove, a label created by a Canadian born designer now living in California with her two daughters, who are part of the family-run business. Paradise Cove’s own site isn’t up yet, however the gorgeous swimwear is available at Get Go Retro; sizes range from an S-L and the Garbo is priced at $125.

We also love the Sailor Jane suit, $110, by Barrie.

Oli Fusion by Jasmine Guinness

Jasmine Guinness, the gorgeous Irish-born model has a range of beautifully retro-inspired, cute swimsuits, which we love!

The Jasmine Bow Swimsuit comes in at only £22 right now and is available up to UK size 22. For tummy coverage, why not give the Jasmine Guinness Spot Swimsuit £28 a go?

We’re hoping Jasmine keeps up the swimsuit designing as we love the prints, prices and realistic sizing.
Jasmine Guinness Oli Fusion Swimsuits are available at Oli.co.uk

As always, Fleur T has managed to capture absolute femininity with this collection – this time with a hint of retro. Big knickers a la Bridget Jones may leave many cold, but when they’re made of silk and given a dose of 50’s styling, the big knicker is sizzling hot! The vintage-inspired, high waisted shortie £49 from this collection is not only beautiful, the silk panel at the front makes them wonderfully flattering, the delicate lace wondrously sexy.

The matching pieces are equally gorgeous; well-fitting bras up to a G cup mean it’s not just the smaller-boobed amongst us who are able to enjoy this elegant lingerie. We love Fleur T for creating pieces that can be mixed and still matched, whether you’re looking for a soft triangle bra suitable for an A-C cup, a plunge bra for those up to a DD cup, or the aforementioned Fleurtatious bra from a D-G cup – and for those who are still looking for something blue on their wedding day or night, why not go for the Baby Blue Camisole and Shorties or the ultra sexy Lace Kimono and Skirted Suspender Brief!
