It's undeniable, the most dreaded of all the seasons is here, whether you're ready or not. Swimsuit season. I'll admit I'm a little better prepared this year than years previous. Even so, it's daunting. And in my opinion swimsuit shopping is up there with shopping for jeans and bras. Not too fun. You can literally try on 50 things, and maybe 2 or 3 actually look good and fit right. There's also the issue with fitting rooms. They honestly have THE most unflattering light imaginable, so you look crappy, no matter what. You also can't get a really good look at yourself either, from different angles and distances. Because trust me, when you're at the pool or beach, people aren't just going to be looking at you straight on, when you're slightly sucking in your tummy, and have your leg positioned just so. Don't deny it, because we all do it. So you need to take a good long look at yourself from every angle, because other people are going to be too. I, personally now completely forgo trying swimsuits on in fitting rooms. Instead, I've taken to ordering online, in several different styles, colors and sizes, and then enjoy being able to try them on in the comfort of my own home. It works for me, but if you enjoy the full in-store shopping experience, by all means, continue. Here are a few of the suits that have caught my eye this season.
There's nothing I love more than polka dots, especially in this lovely shade of tangerine
Polka dots AND ruffles, even better!
I thought the little rosettes were sweet, and the straps are removable, if you want to avoid tan lines
A very bright and fun floral print, perfect for the summer
My mom is going to be so mad I included this suit lol. I wanted to buy it when we went to Hawaii in February, but she said absolutely not, it's not modest. Which is probably true. But I love it nonetheless. I think the cutouts are just so nifty. And I have a thing for cool tan lines. Don't worry mom, I'm not actually considering buying this one!
Happy Monday!
xoxo
