A new swimsuit. I’m just like you. Pre MM, the thought of figuring out new swimsuits for the summer made me break out in hives. I’d order the newest trend one piece, have it delivered to my office, and dread the walk to the single stall to try it on…inevitably having to text one of my coworkers between meetings to assure me it looked flattering (it didn’t). Another summer I didn’t feel my best in skintight white jeans and a cutout one piece. I digress.
It’s just always a category that needs finessing. Even now, in our third year of swim, the first time I put on a new swimsuit is a little jaunting. The thought of taking photos in a swimsuit to show to literally one other human…is…something I grapple with every year. But it’s worth it. I’m not a sample size and you’re most likely not either. I love, love our swim.
There is so much gimmicky marketing around swimwear. I read it all the time and roll my eyes. Crazy claims about fabric content, stretch ability, flattening powers, ect. But ladies, this is the truth. It must have full backside coverage and it HAS. TO. BE. LINED. Two layers of fabric is the principal difference between looking great on a supermodel and looking great on everyone. This year, we’re offering both new and beloved styles. New colors, new silhouettes. All flattering and absolutely nothing to be afraid of.
No, I’m never making a white swimsuit. You agree. I know you do.
Happy Holiday weekend all. Xx
The towel you lay on is as important an accessory as any. I also love these on mass in a single color.
I’ve really been enjoying fresh watermelon juice cocktails this summer. Tequila or vodka can easily be swapped. Refreshing and a beautiful color.
Let’s take it one step further. This is the ice machine I have on our wet bar at home and it pairs perfectly with a watermelon cocktail.
