The dog days of summer have only just begun, which means many more days of fun in the sun are ahead of us all. Btw, if you aren’t 100% sure what the dog days of summer are, click here. I didn’t know the “real” definition until right now.
Swimsuit shopping is probably one of the most dreaded events of a woman’s life. I mean, how many times have you ordered a suit you knew wasn’t going to fit well but you liked it and hoped it was going to be “the one.” Or that buying a new suit was going to solve ALL the problems?!?!?! Well, have no fear, I have rounded up some of the cutest suits out there!!! I either own these or have them on order, in which case I will update this post with my reviews once I get them.
This Jelly Bean Striped One Piece, I have literally been waiting for it to come back in stock. This type of crossover neckline is very flattering on larger chests. It also has adjustable straps which is very helpful. The solid band at the waist makes this suit very flattering. I picture it with a Black Straw Hat and black sandals.
UPDATE: Ok, thought this suit would be my favorite. I ordered it in a L and honestly probably needed an XL. The waist has an extra band in it and its really tight. Plus the stripes expanded. lol. It is going back!
This Blue Ruffle Suit literally screams my name. It’s a shade of blue and has ruffles. For you larger chested women like myself, you must know that ruffles like this in the front tend to make your chest look smaller. One of the many reasons I love ruffles! This suit also has a party in the back which makes it a 10 in my book. I picture it with White Jean Shorts and a cute pair of Earrings.
UPDATE: LOVE this suit!! The party in the back is adorbs and it’s super comfy, even with the kids. I ordered this in a M.
This black two piece is a MUST for everyone! It’s pretty much your LBD. Love me a good scallop and a high waist, plus the top looks uber supportive! I picture wearing this suit a little more casual so some Fun Slides!
UPDATE: Love this for a basic black suit. The scallops make it more fun that is for sure. The fabric feels cheap to me on this suit compared to the others. I ordered a L.
This Red, White, & Blue suit is the absolute PERFECT suit for the Fourth of JULY! I can basically see fireworks coming out of it. These vertical stripes and waistband are sure to make you appear thinner. I will probably wear this with White Jean Shorts too, and a fun pair of Red Earrings. Ok, I confess, I ordered the red earring I just linked while I was linking them…They look like fireworks for real!!!
UPDATE: I have to be honest, I wasn’t sure if this suit would end up fitting me the best. Mostly because of the side ties. Sometimes the chub can squeeze out of them. haha. But I was very happy with this suit! I ordered a L. My Overalls are literally a summer staple. You should snag a pair while you can, they are on SALE!!!
This Rust One Piece makes me drool. Ha! I am OBSESSED With this color lately. Picture it with a pair of Jean Shorts and a Black Straw Hat. Classic and Boho join in this look.
UPDATE: Thought I would love this suit and……I do!!! Ordered a L.
This Striped Suit is the perfect combo of stripes, ruffles, and great seams at the waist. There were millions(ok thats an exaggeration) of great reviews about how flattering this suit is! I feel like this suit needs a pop of color, like a teal, so definitely fun earrings, like these. Especially since the one shoulder is bare. Also, the earrings I just linked are on SALE for $10, from $38. Treat Yourself!
UPDATE: totes love this suit. It’s cheap, from amazon, and it’s super comfy for a day at the pool with the kids!
This Palm Print Suit is so fun! Especially on a trip, I wore it to Mexico this past winter and it was great in the water too. Here are my Sandals and Similar Sunnies.
Where is your favorite place to shop for swim???
Happy Summer Friends!
