Norma Kamali at Walmart -- What???


Today, I met my daughter and husband at the pool. My daughter was instructed to bring my bathing suit and pool bag. I arrived at the pool, grabbed the pool bag and proceeded to change into my suit...only, my daughter forgot to pack my bottoms. My husband said, "Is that a big deal?" WHAT, are you kidding me? Yes, that is a huge deal!

I drive home to retrieve the bottoms of my swimsuit only I cannot find them anywhere. I searched everywhere, for the sake of time I grab a black bottom from another suit and drive back to the pool. While driving back I am becoming angry, because that bathing suit fit me really well and I paid more a than usual for the suit.

Eventually, the next day the bottoms appear, hidden under stuffed animals in my daughter's room (don't ask). I had assumed the bottoms would never surface so I started searching the web for Norma Kamali bathing suits hoping to find last year's suit on Ebay or something. In my search results was a link to "Norma Kamali for Walmart". WHAT??? Is this a joke? So, I clicked on the link and to my delight, Norma Kamali created a line for Walmart. Quite nice I might add. I ventured off to my local Walmart to find just a few items from the line. I purchased the black sleeveless dress for $19.99. I am browsing the site to order several pieces on line. Give it a look over, the line is amazing.
