Chichanella Bella Vintage Swimwear - Review & #Giveaway


 
Chichanella Bella Swimwear


A Vintage Inspired Swimwear Company for babies and children.
This whimsical swimwear line is reminiscent of a simpler time. Influences from the 20s to the 50s show throughout creating a nostalgic feel. Soft ruffles, hand rolled flowers, adorable bows, polka dots, and stripes accompany swimsuit names like Pink Taffy, Lifeguard Lu Lu, Cotton Candy, and Seaside Sweetheart.







This one piece silhouette features a soft pink palette of dotted and striped fabrics. Ruffle detail and bows create a feminine feel which is made complete by the attached swing skirt for extra cuteness! Matching bonnet has an off center bow placed on top of a ruffle that circles the soft elastic opening with a double ruffle brim.




 My Thoughts

I live in the Victorian town of Cape May. A place where houses were built in doll house style with gingerbread trims and there's a good chance you'll get stuck behind a horse and buggy on your way to work. Since more often than not, there are period actors traipsing the boardwalk in vintage style clothing, I knew my daughter would fit right in wearing the beautiful Sugary Sweetness Swimwear from Chichanella Bella. This gorgeous style brings you right back to the days when you had to have your swimsuit measured before you stepped on the beach. You wouldn't want to show too much knee!



 The Chichanella Bella swimsuit is beautifully designed and very well made. The suit is one piece and slides on easily. There are no uncomfortable snaps or buckles that might come undone. It will stay in place even in rough waves. The extra coverage also means less sunblock to apply which is always a plus. The bonnet really finishes off this old-world look. The elastic holds it in place and you can tuck their hair up inside of it to prevent it getting wet. My daughter loved the design and she feels like a Victorian princess when she's wearing it. Both pieces are extremely well made so you can expect to get lots of wear out of them and probably pass them down when your child outgrows them.  I can't wait until it's warm enough to hit the beaches. I know my daughter be the hit of Cape May this summer thanks to Chichanella Bella.
