Beach Babes

Vibrant colors, bold prints, and all different styles and shapes, describe the bathing suits that graced the beaches and pools in the 50s and 60s.  Accessories were also worn when going to the beach or pool, such as mod plastic framed sunglasses, oversize hats, swimming caps and cover ups.  Long live summer with these far out photos.
