Hellobee

I don’t know about you, but I was SO ready for winter to be over… it seems like it just ended, but now here we are in May (!!) and just a few short weeks away until pool season official begins! While I (sometimes begrudgingly) sported bikinis pre-kiddo, as a momma, I don’t feel as comfortable in them any more, especially since I spend a lot of time at the pool or beach playing with or swimming with Lil’ CB in the water.

While I’m happy with my body, I feel like I need a bit of extra coverage so nothing pops out or falls off! Thankfully, one-piece suits and higher-waisted and/or more structured bikinis have come back into style with some staying power and some major style upgrades! Here are 25 suits that are stylish and flattering for all the mommas out there!

1) Anthropologie Seafolly Boyleg Maillot: I love the cut of this suit…a little retro, all class.

2) Anthropologie Trina Turk Tropicalia Rash Guard and Bottoms: Why, yes, this print is loud, but it sure is fun! It also comes in a reversible string bikini top if you’d like to wear less of this print.

3) Old Navy Balconette Bikini and Classic Bottoms: This bikini is a little more structured and offers more structure. It also comes in many other prints!

4) Target Center Halter One-Piece: The neckline on this suit is a little different and a nice contrast to the one-piece — a little sexy, if you will!

5) Target Polka Dot Halter One-Piece: The ruching and fun, classic polka dot print on this suit, make it perfect for hanging out with your littles at the pool!

6) Target Push-up Halter Bikini Top and Bottom: I bought this suit last year and I love it. I feel much more secure in it than in other bikini tops because there is no part that is tied together, and therefore there is no part that can be easily untied or loosened.

7) J. Crew Pinup Bikini Brief and Gathered Halter Underwire Bikini Top: I think that sometimes, high-waist bikini bottoms can be difficult to wear. But the ruching details on these bottoms make them more flattering, and, when paired with a simple top, it looks classic and vintage.

8) J. Crew Cutout Halter: The cut-outs on this one-piece are subtle enough to be eye-catching, but not over-the-top!

9) J. Crew Ruched Femme One-piece: I love the deep-V on the neckline of this suit. It’s incredibly polished looking!

10) Robin Piccone Penelope Crochet Overlay One-piece: I have such a crush on this suit. The crochet details over the bikini-like suit are sexy, but not overtly so.

11) La Blanca Twist Bandeau One-Piece: I love this suit so much, I have it in two colors. It’s incredibly flattering and comfortable! I’ve turned several friends on to it!

12) La Blanca Glamour Tankini and Hipster Bikini Bottoms: I sometimes have a hard time with tankini tops because rather than flattering my mid-section, they seem to accentuate it. However, the ruching on this top won’t make that a problem!

13) Down for a Dip One-Piece: The criss-cross detail around the waist on this suit make is extra flattering.

14) Set the Serene One-Piece: I love the unusual pattern and detail on this suit…the top looks like the bodice of a gorgeous sundress!

15) Wade a Minute Swim Dress: The skirt on this suit is absolutely darling!

16) Love is Wading One-Piece: I adore the clean lines on this suit and the white belt that draws the eyes to the smallest part of your torso.

17) Bathing Beauty Two-Piece Swimsuit: Is it weird that this suit reminds me a little bit of the Little Mermaid? Regardless, it really is beautiful!

18) Dream Calm True Top and Bottom: The colors in this floral print are just dreamy and I love the peplum detail on the top.

19) Sunkissed Bikini Top and Bottom: It’s like the itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny yellow polka-dot bikini, except it’s not sure itsy-bitsy or teeny-weeny! Instead, it’s adorably retro and classy!

20) Gidget Swimsuit: I love the splash of pink at the waist on this fun suit!

21) Icon Swimsuit: The one-shoulder detail on this suit is swoon-worthy and very similar to last year’s J. Crew suit that was super Hellobee popular!

22) Top Shop Plunge Scallop Swimsuit: I’m obsessed with scallop hems and necklines this season, and this suit makes me feel like the Emoji with the heart eyes!

23) Victoria’s Secret The Forever One-piece: The gold details on the straps of this suit add a little extra dreaminess to this already dreamy suit.

24) Victoria’s Secret The Getaway Halter and Knockout Bikini Bottoms: Again with the scallop details — swoon! I love that the top comes down a little lower, too.

25) Victoria’s Secret The Angel Convertible and Skirted Bikini Bottoms: This top can be worn three ways and I love it paired with this skirted bottom!

What will you be wearing at the beach or pool this summer?
