If Only We Had More Topless Beaches In Seattle
Amy is right, in the land of swimwear everything is ugly or so outrageously expensive that it begs the question, why do these cost more than pants?
I have managed to find some cute suits at prices that will allow you to go swimming (or sunning as the case may be) and pay rent.
Topshop has great basic separates in colors that don't make you cringe. Why the Brits, who have such uninviting beaches, make such great suits is beyond me, but the price is so great that I won't ask questions; most pieces are under eight pounds which translates to about 13 dollars. Buying a suit online is a bit daunting, but at under $30 and with a generous return policy the risk is small and the payoff great. 
Roxy also makes cute suits although they will cost a tad more. Try the Crystal Cove bikini; it will run you around $85 depending on which separates you choose, but this one is reversible so you really are buying four swimsuits with all the different combinations you can do. 
Although most of the suits on figleaves.com are fairly bland, this one will make you a silverscreen starlet faster than you can say, "Daaahling, would you be a dear and get me another drink?"
