Best Fitting One Pieces

August 4, 2020

With school start dates being pushed back, it looks like we are getting a few bonus weeks of summer; so why not buy a new suit or two? If you don’t yet have a one pice, now is the time! I was a slow adopter to this trend but have to say that now I am obsessed. The key here is the cut. The right cut can make your body look long and lean and the wrong cut can be disastrous. While it seems counter intuitive, I swear to you, less fabric on your buns make them look smaller. Access fabric adds extra bulk and who in the world wants that?!
In the name of fashion, I tried on several suits and here are my top picks:

I am 9 wears into this suit and loving it more every time. The cut on this Becca one-piece is perfect on the leg and buns. I chase after my kids on the beach all day and everything stays right where it should.  

Okay, this one is more for looking insanely chic while lounging poolside than hanging with the kids. The lux fabric and ring detail on this Aqua one piece make it look much more expensive than it’s $85 price tag. 

The strategic ruching on this Sea Level suit shaves off inches instantly. Pair that with the hidden power mesh and you’ve just lost that quarantine 15. This suit is also great for bigger busts with its adjustable power straps.

Another winner from Becca that hugs you in all the right places. The crochet overlay is super on trend and the panel inlays are insta-slimmers. Available in a neon version as well that looks gorgeous on sun kissed skin.

I was skeptical about the one size fits most Mara suit by BOUND by Bond-Eye but have to say several of my friends have it, all with different body types and swear by it. The material is made from magic as it sucks you and stretches at the same time.

Don’t be scared by the high cut on this Dolce Vita Stella suit. The higher cut elongates your legs and is super flattering. A word of advice, order one size up so you don’t sacrifice any coverage with this cut.

This L*SpaceL*Lockheart suit is pretty enough to wear around town (however there is not enough White Claw in the world to give me the confidence to do so). The belt hits at your natural waist which cinches you in but is also removable.

A simple cover up is all you need to make these ready to go. I love high waisted denim cut off shorts – these Good American’s that fit like a glove or a chic white over sized blouse like this Rails Ellis cotton shirt

Spring is the perfect time for new beginnings in a Spring is the perfect time for new beginnings in all things, including your face 😆
I took the plunge and did some lasers and I’m so thrilled with the results. I visited BeYouthful Aesthetics, @beyouthful_sd and saw the lovely Deana Buan. As a woman who struggles with both aging skin and acne yet still too nervous to start injecting anything into my face, lasers seemed to be my best bet.  I opted for a 1-2 🥊and did an IPL and Fraxel laser combo. IPL helps with discoloration and the Fraxel helps bump up collagen production- and Deana’s secret numbing cream helps makes it all tolerable. Head to my stories for a detailed breakdown. 👩‍🔬
Swimming into this beautiful Saturday! I am hard o Swimming into this beautiful Saturday! I am hard on bathing suits with constant dips into the pool, ocean and lake so don’t like to break the bank on swimwear. I prefer to buy a handful of cute trend bathing suits like this from @targetstyle and have one for every day of the week. Bonus- these suits are sold as separates since not too many of us ladies are the same size on top and bottom.
