Swimwear doesn't seem to change much from childhood to adulthood. There's a lot of florals and ruffles and bows and polka dots and the always-faithful solid one-piece. Shay Todd adds a bad girl edge to the beach look, and it's now available in her new Melrose boutique. Naturally, the store opened with a flashy party out on the patio, with racks full of the designer's swimwear, cover-ups, jewelry, bags, resortwear and more. You'll find distressed, punk-inspired one- and two-pieces, studded cuff bracelets, neon coverups and more with a distinct 80's appeal—a sharp contrast to the natural, white decor.

But the luxury doesn't just stop with the clothing—the store will eventually feature sunless tanning, spa treatments and even a cafe by the fall. Truly a one-stop shop to get you ready for a long day in the sand or by the pool.
