Best Confidence-Boosting Bathing Suits
Bathing suits can be a real hit or miss situation. You may find one that you think is beautiful, but by the middle of the day you’ve spent most of your time at the pool pulling… and adjusting… and re-adjusting… you get the idea. You may find one that’s super functional, but you feel like you’re back in high school, racing in the swim unit of gym class. Could it really be that out-of-reach, the bathing suit that gives you optimum confidence and style? The beach can and should be our runway. No need to fret for your next vacation, our contributors picked their favorite suits and shared them with us…
Rachel, Helen Olivia Flowers: After being targeted by about a million Instagram ads, I caved and bought a Summersalt bathing suit. I'm a big fan of the Sidestroke style, which I own in five colors. It's super comfortable, chic with a one-shoulder design, and perfect for chasing kids down the beach.
Adrien, Alexandria Wellness: I love red, everyone looks good in red. This suit gives me a full range of motion, which is needed because I love to play frisbee with my daughter, Rachel. We are very active beachgoers. When I'm wearing this bathing suit, I feel confident chasing frisbees, playing volleyball, and running sprints... it stays on perfectly!
Christina, Alexandria Stylebook: I love all things flirty, floral, and feminine, yet I found it difficult to find a bathing suit that met each criterion with the addition of being wardrobe-malfunction proof. Then entered For Love & Lemons. Their bathing suits are classic and fun, and actually stay on while enjoying the beach or the pool. If you're excited about the Barbie movie and want to feel like her on your upcoming vacations, check out For Love & Lemons!
