Disclosure: Thank you to Nordstrom and Shopstyle Collective for sponsoring today’s post. All products were selected, worn, and loved by yours truly.
Between being in Florida and sailing the seas on our recent cruise, I’m starting to forget what wearing “normal” clothes feels like. I never saw myself saying that I’m living in swimsuits in the middle of February, but here are and I am not mad about it [minus the difficulty disguising late-night Gouda and cheese puff indulgences]. While swimsuit shopping can be one of the least enjoyable tasks on the planet [WHY can’t we have a little boob and booty coverage from time to time?!] I *think* I’ve made some good progress in figuring out brands and styles that work for my DD chest [thanks mama for that gift].
I used to spend as little as possible on swimsuits with one goal in mind: wear it for a season and be done. I’m done with those days as I quickly realized that when you spend a little bit more on swimwear that you actually feel awesome in [and that will last for several seasons] it is worth every extra penny. My go-to destination for high-quality swimsuits that I can rely on? Nordstrom. They have a HUGE selection of swimsuits and coverups [3806 to be exact, but who’s counting ;)]. A few of my favorite brands that I’ve tried and love:
To make your job easier when it comes to shopping online for swimsuits and coverups, I thought I’d share some recent finds that I’d recommend to my best friend [that includes you!] One tip when it comes to shopping online for swimwear – order multiple sizes. Thanks to Nordstrom’s free shipping and returns, you can have peace of mind knowing that you’ll be able to find the perfect fit the first time around! Everything you see below I recently wore on our cruise and can stand by the fit, quality, and comfort level! Lather up the sunscreen, grab a cocktail of choice, and go soak up some sun! These suits are ready!
