I just always assumed they’d be suffocatingly tight and unstylish like the ones we wore for meets.
Turns out I was wrong.
One-piece suits can be cute and totally wearable.
There is a bit of mesh around the hips, which adds some flair.
Secretly, I think it just reminded her of suits when she was young.
Oh, and the stripes are surprisingly really flattering.
I love the low scoop back, and hidden seams make it so everything lies nice and smooth.
Plus, it fits perfectly and comes in a variety of flattering colors.
While I certainly didn’t lifeguard in this suit, I probably could have.
The cups, lining, and super adjustable straps at both ends of thesuitmake this a sturdy choice.
