The holiday themed candies, the clothing - it's all coming out earlier and earlier so we can start buying NOW and keep buying until the last sale of the end of season happens.<br /> But I have to say there is nothing to go with the swimwear. I just want a big brimmed sunhat and Target, Ross, and Beall's (southern based dept store) are all a bust. I found one groovy 70's print one at an outlet but it's blue and green while my swimsuits are red pink and orange. guess I'll just have to wait for the headgear to catch up with the swimwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278689 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 20:39:49 +0000 RoseandJoan 278689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess inexpensive travel has meant people are willing to travel further for winter sun, hence the cruise collections at this time of year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278684 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 20:35:41 +0000 Julie 278684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two words: Spring Break </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278672 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 20:19:50 +0000 catgirl 278672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To make me realize I need to get in shape NOW, instead of waiting to start in May. Not that there's much swimsuit opportunity here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278654 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 20:05:49 +0000 Bianca 278654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Girls, I have seen the Easter Candy out as of last week. What is the world coming too!! Queen Mom, you are hilarious! Yes, makes me think time to shape up! Kate, I liked your answer too. Wish I had someplace warm to go to! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278182 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 22:55:09 +0000 Louise 278182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Easter eggs will be out anytime soon!!! Perhaps it's a ploy by the shops to make us buy more? x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278175 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 22:52:02 +0000 Kate 278175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had the same thoughts as QM! </p> <p>Plus they're already putting out the spring and summer styles, so why not include the swimsuits too?!</p> <p>And finally, when you buy things before you actually get a chance to wear them, you are more likely to a) forget what you bought and buy duplicates, b) stock up on things you won't actually wear, and c) use your current feeling that you don't have anything (wintery) to wear to shop more, but never change that current feeling because the only things you can buy are for spring/summer, and so you keep shopping to fill that void.</p> <p>I'm a bit of a cynic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278167 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 22:46:13 +0000 DanaLynn 278167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Queen Mum- that's hilarious! I think you might be onto something. </p> <p>I think everyone is right about the winter vacations and cruises. Now that I live in Arizona I appreciate the early season changes. We only have a few months where you can't hang out at the pool- well you could but it would be a tad bit chilly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278163 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 22:41:32 +0000 Queen Mum 278163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always thought it was an alliance of the swimsuit companies and the gyms. The swimsuit companies put out their stuff and we all run to the gym in a panic Then the gyms give the swim wear makers a kickback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278076 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 20:54:27 +0000 Anonymous 278076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, winter vacays! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-278016 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 19:36:57 +0000 chewyspaghetti 278016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are a lot of people who take winter vacations to warm climates. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-is-swimwear-out-now#post-277991 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 19:13:35 +0000 Bianca 277991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe Angie or someone else who is more experienced with retail cycles can answer this question: Why is swimwear out now? It just seems that "resort collections" and summer clothing appears the first week or so into the New Year. Ummm, I just took down my Christmas Tree a few days ago, and we are getting another blizzard in the North East. Does anyone else find this a mystery? </p>
