I love when I find a new book to add to my reread list. What was the last one you added? 🔁

Over 50 Swimsuits For Every Body Type

Why should swimsuit season be dreaded? It should be celebrated!

The steps to getting a bikini body, you may ask?

ONE. Have a body

TWO. Put a bikini on it

Truly, it should be that simple. I understand why it isn’t, however. Over the years, media and the world have trained a woman’s mind to think that she’s less beautiful with cellulite, stretch marks, jiggly tummies, small boobs, flat butts, etc. To this day, I still have a hard time accepting myself in swimwear.  Brands that I adore (Aerie, Target, Adore Me – to name a few) have begun to share women of all sizes, colors, and shapes, without editing in their swimwear campaigns. It brings my heart so much joy when I recognize someone of a similar body shape, rocking a cute ‘kini. It makes me realize that I can rock one too. It’s about making a conscious choice to believe in your own bangin’ bod (no matter how many dimples or lack of curves it may have) and just enjoy the summer sun.

A couple of years ago I pledged to never retouch any of my swimsuit photos on Instagram or my blog. I’ve held true to that promise and will continue to do so through the rest of my blogging career.  I’m a small, curve-less lady with cellulite and stretch marks to boot, but I’ll never make myself look like anything else to fit the “Instagram model” mold. I will, however, find swimsuits that flatter myself and every body type!


Outfit Details
“Cadence” swimsuit c/o Adore Me | sunglasses | similar bag | phone case c/o Nunuco Design | similar necklace

Take a look at this fantastic line-up of swimsuits from Adore Me.

This cream, high-waisted crochet bikini (called the Lionna) is a best seller, and one I picked up last year. It was also the first one I put in my suitcase for my trip to Florida – and the only one I ended up wearing. It’s the most flattering swimsuit I’ve ever owned!

I think everyone needs a little black bikini, so that’s why I added this one (Gardenia) to my collection last year. I bought it at the end of the summer, so I’m looking forward to wearing it again this year.

I’m super particular about my bikini bottoms, so when I found out this set (Leilah) offered a pair with a little more coverage, I jumped for joy! Also, the print couldn’t be much cuter!

On to the pieces I picked up particularly for this summer! I sure do love a feminine floral, so this set (called the Cadence) was perfect to rock on the days I’m feeling especially girly.

Baywatch much? I’ll be honest, I’m still on the fence about this one (Haven). It’s classic but fits a bit oddly for my long-torso build. I don’t hate it, but it’s probably not one I’ll wear all the time.

Just casually transferring my crochet crush into this season. With a tan I think the color of this itty bitty bikini (called the Kalua) would be especially spectacular!

I have the same style in another print and completely adore it! For years, I couldn’t find a one piece that fit my long torso and didn’t give me the worst wedgie of all time.  However, this one (Soila) totally rocks my socks off!

This one (called the Emillia) is such a classic, retro style that I may end up getting it in the other prints. You just can’t go wrong with a high-waisted bikini!

I spent way too much time looking at these suits haha. I am a swimsuit fanatic because I spend all day every day in summer in bikinis. This year I bought a couple of one piece swimsuits but I know I’ll want more because I got a family membership to the local outdoor pool in my borough so I’ll definitely be there every day and bikinis might not be the best option at a family pool! I thrive in the sun and really do NOT thrive in winter so as much sun on my body as I can get in the warmer months is key! (especially here in Montreal)

I’ve had frustrations buying bathing suits in the past, mostly because I’m bigger up top and it can be difficult to find cute bikinis that actually give support too. One thing I found is companies that sell their bikini tops by actual bra size rather than S/M/L makes a big difference!

I love how many different styles of swimsuits they are these days! When I was younger I swear all that existed were too-revealing bikinis (which is great for those who want to wear them, but I did NOT feel comfortable wearing!), or ugly one pieces, but now there are so many beautiful designs in lots of different shapes! I’m really glad the fashion industry is widening its selection so that more people can feel included and comfortable in the things they wear.

I love these picks soooo much! I just got my first aerie one-piece and I’m OBSESSED. It’s buttery soft and fits so well. I also never knew I’d like high-waisted bikinis until I tried one and I’m in love. Definitely going to stock up on a few more swimsuits because of this post haha

Are you planning any rereads this year? 🔁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rereading is something that I absolutely love to do. While there are countless new releases to get excited about, there’s something incredibly comforting about revisiting my favorite books. 🥹
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my favorite series to reread is SHADES OF MAGIC. Nothing gets me quite as excited and emotional as those opening words: “Kell wore a very peculiar coat…” 🙌🏼 AH! Just writing that makes me anxious to pick up this comfort series again this year. 🙈

Have you read this phenomenal series? 📚
