Glamazons,
It’s that time of year again: swim season! I always get apprehensive about wearing swimwear (because you’re practically naked) but thanks to my #FabFit challenge and ’50s style bikinis, I’m a little bit more comfortable showing some skin on the beach.

About ’50s style bikinis, that’s all I ever wear.
Here’s me in Barbados in Peter Pilotto for Target and H&M swim!
Here’s me in Tobago mixing and matching Nasty Gal swim pieces.
In fact, I should have been born in the ’50s because it’s my favorite era of fashion. It’s just so feminine with full dresses, cinched waists, swing skirts, pompadours and the list goes on. For swim, it was all about high-waisted briefs and halter tops.
My friend thinks men hate high-waisted briefs (she says they look like diapers) but if they’re cut high on the bottom, they’re actually very sexy. They nip in your waist and enhance your curves, which is why everyone loves them.
And by everyone, I mean the Knowles sisters! I swear by it so when I was in Bahamas for our #CaribbeanCrawl, I mixed H&M high-waisted briefs with a Peter Pilotto for Target printed top. It’s feminine and flirty but still leaves something to the imagination which is totally my style.
It’s all about finding what best compliments your frame and makes you comfortable. Some people prefer daring one-piece cut-out swimsuits, string bikinis or the recent trend of long-sleeved swimwear. I’m all for whatever will make you feel most confident on beach day. When you have an afternoon just to enjoy the sun, water and sand, the last thing you want to worry about is being self-conscious about your swimsuit.
That said, I want to know what your go-to swimwear is. Are you into one-piece swimsuits? Obsessed with triangle tops? Link up with us for #FabFriday and show us your pics!
Can’t wait to see all your cool swimwear. Happy summer!
Kisses,
Glamazon Jessica
