Tueday Swimming Suit Blues Gone!

If you've got the swimming suit blues, don't fear - So What If is here! I've found some super cute and super slimming suits just for girls like us. I love a suit that will provide nice coverage, but without making me feel like I'm wearing something made for my grandmother's grandmother. I'm here to tell you - you don't have to feel like a great grandmother any longer!

Before I divulge some of my favorite online suit shops, I want to take an informal poll. What do you like in a swimsuit? Are you a one or two piece kind of gal? Do you like the boy shorts, traditional swimsuit bottoms or are you more of a skirt person. Let me know what you like and what you'd like to see!

Okay, here are a few of my favorite new suits this season...more to come later...

I think this one is too cute, of course, I'm all about the swimskirt this season. This is from Swimsuits for all and is by Liz Claiborne. This is one I'm considering.


Here is another great one. This one is from Lane Bryant and now through 7/31/07 they are offering a coupon for 25% off any $75 order! Yippee! I would probably wear this one with this cute little cover up also from Lane Bryant.


Well, there are a few of my picks for starters. Let me know what you think and any to die for suits that you guys happen to find! Of course, you can always find a full listing of our best swimsuit deals and pics here at the So What If swim shop.

Memorial Day Shopping & Savings

Don't forget to spend some time online this holiday weekend! Lots of our favorite retail places will be having BIG sales! Make sure you check out some of the sales and be sure to comment with some of your best finds - we're always on the lookout for a GREAT deal!

I know where I'll be this weekend - spending some time looking for the perfect wedding guest dresses. I don't know about you guys, but this time of year always equals wedding for me. Whether I'm a bridesmaid (never a bride) or a wedding guest, I am always looking for cute summer dresses. Of course you know Sydney's Closet has great choices for dressy wedding guest dresses, but we're not totally biased, we also found some great choices at Alight. If you're looking for something a little more casual than Sydney's Closet can offer or maybe you need the perfect summer picnic number, check 'em out. I personally love the garden contrast dress:


Can't you just see yourself at a summer outing in this cute little number?

It's officially live!

Well, after much preparation and design, we've FINALLY launched our new look. Those of you loyal to sowhatif.com are probably a little shocked by the new look!
