currently loving: neon wetsuits

we discovered these very cool wetsuits a while back and I {sammy} have been lusting after them ever since.

neon are a small local company with origins similar to ours and we love founder Elsie's blog post explaining how she wanted to do things her own way.
we love the simplicity of the designs and the fact that you can create your own colour combinations, and that all the wetsuits are handmade to order in their studio in Cornwall.

aren't they beautiful ..... I've worked out my favourites.
I seem to be drawn to the greys, pinks & blues.
