#200 - City Magazine - Swimwear

The holidays start when we buy a bathing suit or something, when we would recycle the holidays... It is already June when our thoughts run to the holidays, and we are especially happy when we see that it is beautiful outside.

Slovenians certainly do not need to complain over ideas for June weekend trips, which are a sort of prelude to the multi-week holiday program that will follow in the following months. In fact, geographically everything is quite close to us for this kind of thing summer activities. Of course, a Slovene would not be quite a true Slovene if he did not pack just as many suitcases for a weekend adventure as he packs for a several-week stay in a destination that is definitely not very far away. What's more, buying food and drink at the supermarket just before you leave will be just as big, whether it's for one day or ten. Well new swimwear, new towel, new dress, new sunglasses, new pillow and new sun cream ... By the way, debates about how a colleague, neighbor, friend ... booked a plane ticket to a paradise island, somewhere in the middle of the ocean, and comments, "where did he get the money", and in style , "he/she can afford it", ... are actually completely redundant. To be able to look at things differently or similarly, we just have to look through the prism of our consumer discipline, the principle of which is to ignore the wealth and material goods that are otherwise part of our everyday life, and look for that something in smaller things that, with a little design and our creative veins became bigger in the original sense, and made our lives easier and more interesting. Also, inventing itself constantly forces us to think, which emotionally protects us from boredom, and imagine, maybe our homemade swimwear, sandals, a tent, sports props or a barbecue draw crowds who would like to have them. Therefore, the conclusion that surely follows is that the colleague, neighbor, friend...planned the vacation differently, and I dare say that he/she did not spend a cent more than us, who decided on a significantly shorter one path. Anyway, why wouldn't you? recycled holidays, which, of course, does not exactly mean that we pull grandma's old bathing suit out of mothballs, but we can turn some old ones into new ones with accessories. We will certainly dig out some more from our closet to decorate them lemons and pineapples, let me whisper to you that I already found the pineapple shorts. The barbecue could be decorated with brightly colored flowers, the holes in the lounger could be covered with a sewn-on "flika", and the garden table and chairs refreshed with neon colors. Don't you think this is more fun than shopping? If you have to, then browse our new edition, but at the end, a word of warning, do not order from the Chinese, because it can happen that your dress will become a crop top, the B cup will be the XXS cup of A, and the shorts and knee-length skirt will surprisingly become mini pants and a mini skirt. As they say, if you're young and stupid, that's fine too. ☺ PS: there's always another "piece" for a weekend trip, so that it's not just Maya the Bee, Butterfly the Butterfly, Ladybug and the Dog barking ... even children can tolerate all the nonsense of young or old parents, so why not have a good time Mungo Jerry "In the summertime" or Steve Miller Band “The Joker” or Eddie Cochran's "Summertime Blues" or …
