It’s the best time of the year — summertime! I may be biased because it’s when my birthday falls, but July is by far the greatest month. Nothing beats fun in the sun, relaxing on the beach and, most of all, sporting the cutest swimwear. The Coast enjoys summer weather most of the year, so having a great swimsuit or two in our wardrobe that’s perfect for every occasion is a must. 

While shopping, I’ve noticed that high-waisted swimwear is everywhere. From Target to Zara, brands are now giving us what we want and need. Not only do high-waisted bottoms have a vintage feel and flatter most body types, but they offer support and coverage you won’t get from something stringy and skimpy.

As a midsize girl, I tend to fall in an in-between area. I can wear a bikini, but I may not be fully comfortable, or I could put on a one-piece suit and feel at ease. Now that high-waisted suits are trending, and hopefully here to stay, I can have the best of both worlds.

That’s not to say high-waisted suits are anything new. Stars like Marilyn Monroe made them iconic decades ago. The style dominated throughout the 1960s and ‘70s. 

Barely-there bikinis have had their moment, too, but now that this super chic alternative is on the rise, it’s time to snap up several for your collection. High-waisted suits come in so many styles and colors that complement many different figures. And whether you have a designer budget or a lower price point, you can easily find a suit that fits your unique style. 

This trend truly is perfect for anyone and every size. We all deserve to feel comfortable as we stroll in the sand or lounge by the pool. This summer, let’s show up and show out, feeling confident in our swimwear!
