Today is all about swimwear and getting ready for vacation! Even with a baby on board, I love going to the beach or spending time at the pool with the family. I like to keep things as comfortable as possible, so today I’ve linked everything from cover-ups to stylish one-pieces and a high waist bikini.
SinceI got the sweetest DM from a reader who requested some tips for shopping for swimwear for her upcoming girls trip, I compiled some fail-safe tips for choosing the most flattering style for your body—read along!
1. For curvier types,opt for color blocking, retro suits (embrace the high waist) and stripes! I’m loving this high waisted suit from DVF // this one in peach crochet // stripe high waist // or pink with tassels!
2. For a small bust, opt for a deep V, bold prints and ruffles. I have this in white and its super flattering and gives shape to a smaller bust size. One pieces can be really flattering and I love the scallop detail.

3. As for a large bust, go for molded cups and higher backs for support.
4. For athletic frames,opt for tops and bottoms with bold prints, cutout one-piece suits, gingham, and one-shoulder for that flattering look.
When in doubt, go for a black one-piece suit. It’s an overall flattering cut and color for almost any shape and size.

P.S. Don’t forget the swim cover!

Personally, I’ve been stumped with what swimsuit to buy at 27 weeks! I wore one to a friends pool and it was downright embarrassing. It was a non-maternity one piece that my belly was pulling down and I kept pulling up during insecure conversations and I told myself, I need to find a suit, stat! So I did some research and found some ones worth sharing. Whether you’re a one or two-piece girl, I’ve got you covered. No pun intended! I still have a J-crew one piece from 2013 that still fits so good. I wear it to swim lessons with the kids. Any excuse to get in the water and relieve my back you know?
