Sporti Groovy Zodiac Swimwear and Swim CapsSporti Groovy Zodiac Taurus Brief Swimsuit (26-40)

When I first saw this series I actually had flashbacks to long forgotten curtains, wallpapers and bedspreads of my childhood. The Aries in particular is spot on with its bold shapes and combination of earth tones with bright colors. I ended up buying six out of twelve, mostly because the patterns capture an era that is mostly forgotten, which happens to be that of schooldays swim classes! Of the other six, five struck me as more 1980's (which was not a favorite era for me), think 1984 LA Olympics, while the Libras seem more 1960's, think Yellow Submarine, with their kaleidoscope of bright colors. As swimwear these are exactly what you expect; the choice of sizes is great and I maybe wish that the patterns lined up at the seams, but they are super-affordable, and the groovyness of the designs that made these an essential purchase for me.
