Okay, which one spoke to your heart more?!

Which plus size bikinis can you see yourself playing in? These are only a few of the fancy numbers coming out and I mean… gorge right? I already have a growing swim wardrobe/ stash for this year! Listen, I am going to be at someone’s pool and beach this year. I already KNOW this. I can speak it into existence, right?

What I appreciate about these options is that there are so many more styles and options, to address, enhance, of camouflage areas we love and are insecure about! Like, I love my legs, not the biggest fan of my crotch area being all exposed (just my personal hang up) and I got a little belly. SO a few of these numbers speak to my life right now!

You have to love the options that plus size fashion is giving us, especially with plus size swimwear. We now have options that speak to our budget, personal taste and style!

Are you going to be donning a two piece this swim season?

With this year’s theme being OWN IT, why not? I know that I will be stepping out there! Why don’t you join me!?!
