Obsessed with vintage? Fanatical about retro?  So are we.  Popina Swimwear’s Portland Swimwear Boutique has two locations one in beautiful NE Portland, OR the other is a Swimwear Boutique in the Pearl District.  A shop we love is Billygoat Vintage, a store in the Alberta Arts District just east of the Popina store that features a carefully selected collection of vintage clothing.  I was in BillyGoat the other day admiring their unique threads, and I found an amazing book about retro and vintage hairstyling.  Good news? It looked like even I could pull off! Even better news? I didn’t take the last one!  You can pick one up at the Billygoat store or on their website at www.hrstbooks.com. 

Here is a sample page from the book

Ooh…I can just see you now, girl.

Our Walnut Jantzen One Piece, your very own bombshell Marilyn Monroe Hairstyle….

This swimsuit is perfect for that classic, retro look of the 40s and 50s. The front shirring gives beautiful detail and the lower leg feature flatters your gams in that desirable retro look.
