Lust: DVF Carmen Tropical Swimsuit

[dvf.com]

I'm going to St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands in February to visit a friend (and to escape the cold weather). This Diane von Furstenberg 'Carmen Tropical Swimsuit' from the Cruise/Pre-Spring 2009/2010 'Her Name is Rio' collection is so retro and fabulous.

I love the halter and ruched bodice. Juicy Couture had some suits out this past summer in a similar throw-back silouette. They're very flattering and chic. It's $345 at Bergdorf Goodman.

The collection is inspired by Rio de Janerio, Brazil. On her site, von Furstenberg said, "The freedom to travel lightly, to go through customs...with nothing to declare but colors and optimism..." I like your attitude, Ms. Furstenberg!
