swim wear

I forgot to mention that over the weekend I did find a swimming combination that will work pretty well, I think. My old binder, the black neoprene brace, topped with the tadpole, and then a thin grey shirt. I'm such a fag, because my swim shorts are black, the shirt is a gray ringer with black trim, so I match superwell. I found that wearing the smaller shirt (size M vs. size L) looks better, and even though there's obviously going to be clinging when wet (I did jump in the shower to see how I looked!), it doesn't look all stretched out with water weight. I also think wearing more fitted shirts makes me look more trim -- like wearing baggy clothes emphasizes my size. Sort of odd, but whatever works.

I also decided on what dress shirt to bring. I'm going to throw in a tie, and decided to add a sweater vest, because it just makes the whole outfit look better, even if it is summer time. It's a thin, fitted vest, not a bulky one. I'm just too high waisted to get away with a plain shirt and tie. I'm going to be quite the dapper boy at Cape Cod this weekend!
