Joan Blondell Retro Swimsuits Photo of the Day

I can’t believe that autumn is almost here. The summer really flew by! August 15 was Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. day on Turner Classic Movies, and one of the featured films was Union Depot starring Fairbanks and Joan Blondell. In honor of that movie, this pinup style magazine cover of Joan Blondell is our “Photo of the Day.”

August is a great time to look for late summer swimwear sales! Retro swimsuits are hot and this is the time to hunt for bargains. Here are a few stylish swimsuits I like:
