Hey gals! Its Jillian Rosado from the Jillian Rosado Blog back again this month with a post about something we’ve all been trying to put off, but inevitably it’s here and we need to face it together – bathing suit season! Or, as I call them… mom suits!
So, Summer…
It’s my fave season! I love heading down the shore every weekend or heading over to our neighborhood pool for some sun, fun and relaxation HOWEVER there always comes the point where I have to put a bathing suit on. Then all the guilt trickles in:
“I should’ve worked out this winter!”
“I shouldn’t have eaten those donuts!”
“Man, I need to shave my legs!”
“Ugghhh could I be any paler??”
At some point, I pull myself out of that self-loathing that us women have been brainwashed into our whole lives (I won’t get on my soapbox now tho) and just say, this is my body, this is what I look like and I’m just gonna rock that suit!
Well, I’m very happy to report that one-pieces are SO in right now and in so many different shapes and silhouettes! I’m also happy to share that high-rise bikini bottoms are also still in so my mom belly will be well hidden all summer! Again, I could go into a long post about how to love the skin you’re in, how you don’t need to conform to anyone’s opinion of what you should look like or what society dictates but let’s be honest, I’m the fashion gal around here and I save the preaching for my hubs on Sundays!
Instead, I’m rounding up a bunch of mom-friendly suits that you’ll feel good in, are super cute AND won’t break the bank!
I am LOVING one-pieces lately whether they be one-shouldered, ruffled-top or cutout, they’re all just TOO cute while providing good coverage! A few I really love are this palm-print one, a simple tank suit with cutouts or this striped one with a geniusly placed tie sash in front!
I still don’t feel old enough to never rock a bikini again, but when I do, I opt for a high-waisted bottom bc, at 37 years-old, my abs are NOT what they used to be! I loooooove this mix-match ruffled top one, this floral number and this boho black and white combo (top | bottoms)!
Coverups have come a LONG way and now its sometimes even hard to differentiate between what’s a dress/romper and what’s a coverup! I’m loving this chambray stripe one, this white lace one and this crocheted one totally has my heart!
Thinking to yourself, ‘I just throw on a worn out old cotton tank and shorts and have no time to look cute’ – well stop that gal! Again, just bc you’re a mom doesn’t mean you can’t look cute! You DESERVE to look good and to take a few extra moments to do it! I’m styling my new fave coverup two ways for you here so whether you like a one-piece or a bikini and if you’re more casual/boho or glam, you can rock either look and its SO easy!
Grab this black/white bikini combo – top | bottoms – (so slimming!), add a cute little beaded bracelet (it means “balance” – love that!), some comfy but cute pool slides, a hat and the coverup and BAM! Cute and casual, but put together look for the pool!
OR
Grab this SUPER cute strapless black one piece (only $27!!), add these chic shades and a pop of color with these ah-mazing statement earrings (super lightweight) and again, the hat and coverup and you’re set for a day at the beach with your guy and sans kids!
So I hope you enjoyed this post and it will help push you outside the box in what you think moms should wear to the beach, pool or lake! If you grab any of these suits, be sure to let me know by DM’ing me or tagging me on Instagram or leave a comment below!
