Information about Uglies Dolfin:
Who You Callin’ Ugly?
About 10 years ago, what later became America’s most popular practice suit was nothing more than a group of wacky promotional prints that Dolfin struggled to get rid of every year. Little did we all know, they were slowly creating a name for themselves.
Before long, the Dolfin design team realized that these loud, crazy prints were actually desirable as training suits. Now uniquely designed with youthful swimmers in mind, Dolfin Uglies are nearly impossible to keep on the shelves!
With their long lasting polyester blend fabric and fun, unique prints with contrast binding and liners, Dolfin Uglies have well surpassed their competitors. Now Dolfin has even introduced Urban Uglies – practice suits with an edge! These suits really round out the collection, giving any individual the opportunity to show off her unique personality while she trains.
Spring 2011 dolfin uglies swimsuits range:
Uglies Jive V-2 back Uglies Scrabelle V-2 back
Uglies Frizzle V-2 back Uglies Lulu V-2 back
Limited Edition Uglies swim costumes for Valentine’s Day 2011:
Tie Dye ltd edition 2011 Uglies Candy Hearts ltd edition 2011 Uglies
Holly and I have 4 of the Uglies new range already…Palma, Peony, Valentina and Rhapsody.
Palma Uglies Dolfin baggy/drag shorts Peony Uglies Dolfin baggy/drag shorts
Rhapsody Uglies Dolfin baggy/drag shorts Valentina Uglies Dolfin baggy/drag shorts

Meet the tangle teezer. For me it is the best invention ever! You may of seen it on Dragons Den the TV show, if your hair is long or gets really knotted after swimming and it is a struggle getting a brush through your hair, then this is the product you need. Speaking from experience it is excellent the way it can detangling the hair very easy whether your hair is curly or straight. You can buy it on the Tangle Teezer website, Ebay or Amazon, or at a hairdressers.
