2018 Summer Swimsuit Guide

I ran into a friend who complimented my blogging venture and said she had a topic idea...swimsuits that fit the average woman/mom without breaking the bank.  What a great idea, I thought!  Holy moly tho, it's not an easy task.  However, I was excited to take on the challenge and see if I could find a few options that would work for most friends.

When wearing swimwear, you want to feel confident.  And you don't want to "pull and tug" all afternoon when you're at the pool or on the beach.  Whether you're in your 20's, 30's, 40's, a mom, and no matter your body-type, I think I just might have found at least one bathing suit that you might love this season.

This Black One-Piece is darling!  The cutout detail in the front is super cute and the back has dainty details that jazz it up a bit from a regular LBS (little black swimsuit).  Online, it says the fit runs small and to order one size up.  While I don't think it has full support in the bust area, the back looks like it would be full coverage which is definitely something I'm looking for.  This suit is less than $60 which is awesome!

This One Shoulder Scalloped Swimsuit is too cute and priced at only $19.98 with free returns, I definitely think it's worth a shot to try it on.  And, it comes in red.  Trying to decide which one I want to try.  It looks super cute and "mom friendly" for pool days with your kiddos but also fun and flirty if you're going on a fun vacation.

I'm SO obsessed with this Rose Crochet Suit from Everything But Water.  It also comes in "midnight" which looks like a navy color.  I love this one because it looks like it has great coverage but yet, it's trendy and fun!  The price is $123 which isn't too expensive, especially if it's good quality and durable.

This super cute Grey Bikini got awesome reviews on romwe.com.  Some people are nervous about ordering from romwe.com but my advice would be to read the reviews, see if there are photos of "real women" wearing the item, and typically order a size up.

Check out this cute Crochet Trim One-Piece from Target.  It also comes in a black and white stripe version which is super cute as well.  You guys, Target is a great place to find super cute and flattering swimsuits at a fraction of the cost of other retailers.  And right now, they're running a BOGO 50% off women's swimsuits.  Be sure to read reviews and size up if needed.  This one received 4 out of 5 stars which I think is pretty great!

And lastly, another boutique that sells swimwear is Hazel and Olive.  I just ordered a two piece from this website and it is so stinking cute! I'll let you know how I like it when it arrives.

With all of this warm weather we've been having lately, it makes me SO ready for summer!  Because summer = sunshine, warm weather, cocktails (finally!!) and DRIVING!!!  I hate to rush through life but I'm ready for this phase of life (no driving and no wine) to be done.  Fingers crossed the weeks continue to fly by.  Have a great week, friends!
