Hi loves! Today, I’m taking you on my favorite swimsuit fashion finds! Bikini season is here. For some of us, that’s amazing! You’ve worked hard for your “summer body” and can’t wait to show it off. For others it’s just straight up confidence in their bodies and loving themselves no matter their size or shape. Then there are some of us who unfortunately dread this time of month.
It can be for a number of reasons: insecurities in ourselves, can’t find the right bathing suit, etc. I can relate. I’m very insecure in bathing suits. Sometimes I feel confident if my body is in the right shape for me, other times I just want to hide and stay away from the beach. We can’t let that stop us from living our best life.
Try Em On
Today, I’ll be showing you all my swimsuit fashion finds. Now I do take the time to go into the stores and try on each suit before I buy it. I think sometimes we think something will look good and then we actually wear it and it’s the complete opposite. So don’t be afraid of trying on swimsuits before you buy if possible. Don’t be afraid to try something outside of your comfort zone.
You’re in the privacy of that dressing room and it’s just you and the mirror. So try things you normally wouldn’t and give it a chance. Maybe, it won’t look good but maybe you find a new sense of confidence. You’re your own worst critic, just remember to be happy in your body.

Be Confident
Swimsuit can be tricky, but truly you have to find your confidence to fault it. Just look at Sports Illustrated Swim, they are shattering perceptions and making every woman feel confident. The models come in so many different shapes and sizes and they ALL look sexy, confident and empowered.
SI even shows different kinds of swim suits. This year they showed Halima Aden in a burkini. She BROKE barriers, it’s about finding what you find sexy. It can be a bikini, a thong, a one-piece, a two piece, high waisted, and even a burkini.
It never what you wear. IT’S HOW YOU WEAR IT. You are the model in your swimsuit. You can control if people see you insecure in the swimsuit or confident and happy. Find the right suit for you by trying it on first. What looks good on someone else may not look great on you.
It’s okay just move onto the next one. Try it on and shop at stores you’re comfortable in. Be mindful of the prices in swimwear. I’ve shared some of my favorite swimsuit fashion finds today and hope to have inspired you to go find yours! Find the suit you feel the most confident in and have fun at the beach this summer.
XOXO
