beach fashions by nina leen, 1950
i simply refuse to bathe anywhere that does not provide benches to match my bathing suit!

silent film stars love to hang out at the beach, it seems.
here we have agnes franey and myrna loy (of the thin man fame) in 1929
dorothy sebastian and joan crawford
my favourite, ukuleles and the beach!

These pictures are amazing!
Love this! I absolutely ADORE beachwear (and Clara Bow is also wearing my dream romper ;]) but detest the beach. Haha. Unless I can be on a deckchair, under an umbrella, on a really big blanket so that I don't have to touch any sand. But I like the idea of the beach. Hehe.

beautiful photos.
Oh, Louise isn't having a tea party on the beach - she's drinking gin from a tea cup.
yes!!! I have struggled finding classic style suits- and i feel as though i have hunted far and wide (thrifting, mall, etc). I fear i may have to resort to internet shopping- i'm hesitant since a swimsuit is something that really should have a good fit.
I really enjoyed this post- wonderful photos!
