Few things are as miserable as shopping for a bathing suit when it’s still 30 degrees outside.

Though wearing a bathing suit right now would be one of them.

You’ll have plenty of time to banish your pasty complexion once that Caribbean vacation rolls around. For now, ease the pain with a trip to Wish Splash. Sister to the Charles Street clothing boutique Wish, it’s the freshest thing to hit that block all year.

About the size of a poolside cabana, the shop brims with colorful little numbers by Milly Cabana, Shoshanna, and La Blanca, as well as matching wraps; straw hats; and big, flirty sunglasses. And though the teeny bikini rules, there’s a solid selection for those who prefer the extra coverage of a boy short or one-piece.

We can’t guarantee a totally pain-free experience.

But you’re sure to come out a few degrees hotter.

Wish Splash, 15 Charles Street, Beacon Hill (617-228-0225).
