Every year I have one date starred on my calendar, and that is Memorial Day Weekend. With Spring coming and going, MDW is always the start of summer, aka the most fun time of the year. Warm weather, sunshine, the beach, and endless happy hours, how could one not look forward to that? Even though this is my first year not having a summer break (corporate world you cruel beast), I am still just as excited to hop into the next few months. If you haven’t heard, it’s also time for “hot girl summer”, which for me, means wearing cute outfits and having some fun adventures this summer with a cocktail in hand… always.
With a new year, why not upgrade my swimwear to match the “hot girl summer” vibes we are all going for. A ton of stores right now are having sales, so it is the perfect time to snag some cute new swimsuits and accessories. I am a big proponent of wanting to feel comfortable and confident while wearing a swimsuit, so below are some of my favorite suits I have seen this season.
One; Two; Three; Four; Five; Six
Basic colored two pieces are a go-to for my staple swimsuits. I love buying a few top and bottoms to swap around and do a color blocking look. Plus, Aerie is having a sale on swim right now!
All three of these bottoms are high waisted and high cut. I love these so much because they elongate your legs and sit right on your waist- super slimming and insanely comfortable as well. Wearing the last suit in my pics-the ribbed material on the green suit is a bit stretchier than the leopard and floral bottoms but all would be TTS.
I always like to pack at least one piece if I am going on vacation for situations like doing higher intensity activities or want to protect myself a bit more from the sun. Also great to pack if you feel a little bloated to provide a bit more comfort 🙂 All of these suits are so cute and I love how they all have some factor of cinching in your waist. Different options for straps, necklines, and cut on the legs. Love them!
OBSESSED with the terry cloth set- definitely a trend you will see this summer. Serves multiple purposes: a cute coverup AND will act as a towel, go off Zara I want this in 5 colors. The skirt is the black version of what I am wearing in my pictures; a total Love Shack Fancy dupe (for like a fifth of the price). Definitely a little short so if you are wearing this as a cover up I would recommend buying some short bike shorts to wear underneath or sizing up.
Loving the straw tote to pack all of your beach/pool necessities in. Zara also has the super cool terry cloth toiletry bag and tote (both waterproof). I don’t want to bring expensive shoes to the beach, so these waterproof Birks and Lulu’s shoes are perfect (and an Hermes slide dupe for $20?? I mean c’mon).
Don’t forget- every body is a bikini body, rock your swimsuit and own your looks, self-love all summer baby!!
