Memorial Day Weekend: Day 2--High Waisted Bikini

Yesterday we saw the teeny string bikini, and today we're focusing on the high waisted bikini.  I love this style because it's a bit more forgiving and looks a little retro at the same time.  Take a look at a few of the favorites from Vogue Magazine.

The Last of the Summer Abs

I can't believe it's August already.  As teachers, we live for summer, only to have them fly by and before you know it we're back to school.  I haven't spent much time by the pool this summer, I admit sadly, but I know some of you are getting your last minute tans on.  With that being said, here's some inspiration for you to get those bikinis on and enjoy the last few weeks of summer.

And, in case you're looking, what better way to enhance that gorgeous stomach then with a silver belly ring?  I'm dying for either of these.  What do you think?
