Oooh, that’s hot! And we’re not just talking about the temperature. Summer is in full swing, and everyone is jonesing for a chance to hit the beach, or for time to lounge by the pool. In nothing less than the cutest swimwear, of course! Which means a bit of shopping is in order. The fun part? There is a whole array of really cool local brands you can choose from, whether you are a maillot or a bikini girlie.
Before we get into it, let’s break swimsuit shopping down a little bit. Us girlies come in all shapes and sizes, with some a little curvier, some a little leaner. Maybe some are petite, or maybe some are just looking for something a bit more modest. These brands have ticked all those boxes, without holding back on the style and coolness factor — with cute accents like resin rings, bows and cute prints. Pick out a reversible one, and you suddenly have several looks for the price of one bikini! Even the trendier pieces come in sizes up to 4XL for some — with photos to show you how it'll look across body types. Which will always be beautiful! Once you see the one that sparks joy, snap it up, because now is your time to bask in the sunshine!
BLACKBOUGH Swim just screams main character energy with its cool boho vibe, fun colors and sexy cuts. Beach babes can check out their new styles at their Powerplant Mall pop-up until the end of May.
NEKID Swimwear is a popular choice not only for their trendy designs, comfortable wear, and variety of styles, but also for their wide range of sizes, some of which go up to 4XL.
