Each year I usually buy 2-3 new suits and Target is almost always my go-to. I like that I can mix-and-match the tops and bottoms and usually put together different colors and patterns, too.
I like the bandeau style tops best on me and usually try to look for that style. This year I wanted to find some with a little ruffle because I feel like that trend is super stylish right now and it also adds a little "umpf" in that area if you know what I mean. (wink, wink ;-))
Last year I bought bottoms that had a little skirt on it and I really loved it. It covers just a tad more than a regular bikini bottom, but still is super stylish.
Before you start thinking it's all grandma looking, let me assure you, it is really cute on. So, I knew I wanted to try to find another suit with a similar style and I ended up with THIS top and THIS bottom both in navy and love it! The crochet material is feminine and so pretty with the ruffle details.
I'm a girly-girl and I love swimsuits with some ruffle or sparkle so the other one I got this year is this sparkle bandeau top and chevron bottoms. The hint of sparkle is so pretty and I felt like it would be my fun suit for summer!
One last style of suit that I love is a swimdress. Yes, a swimsuit and a dress in one. Whoever came up with this is a genius!
As for the kids, my girls are kind of like me...they are all about the ruffles and sparkle. They prefer two-piece suits and since the day they were potty trained I did, too. No one likes using the restroom and having to pull up a wet bathing suit. I found some really cute ones for them at Target and Kohl's this year.
i LOVE your suit choices. And clearly i missed the boat on the linkup! Oops! I Maybe I should link it, i just stated what we do at the beach.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that sparkly coral bandeau top!!
ReplyDeleteI totally got a black swim dress just like that at target last week and it is darling! I felt 2 suits weren't enough this year as I hope to be spending a lot more time at the pool!
ReplyDeleteI have a halter swim dress from Juicy and I totally love it. It feels so retro and fun! I used to care more about a stomach tan but as I get older I care less about that and really only about my legs getting a tan! Sun, stay away from my face #nomorefrecklesplease. Loved your roundup, great suit choices!!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree! those Juicy suits are the best! And I'm also with you on keeping the sun away from my face!!! I try everything I can to keep it away and prevent more wrinkles!!!
