I am counting down the days until we head to Florida and escape Winter in Iowa! So I thought it would be helpful to share some mom friendly swimsuits in case you are headed somewhere warm this winter or on spring break.
The suits I have chosen are modest, yet totally chic. As a mama of 3 littles, I want to be able to swim, jump, & play with my kiddos on the beach, and at the pool, but still look sophisticated & flatters my curves.
For reference my sizing info:
- I’m 5’10”
- Wear a size 6/27-28 pant
- Size small/medium depending on the brand
- I’m currently 5 months postpartum & breast-feeding

Tips for finding your most flattering swimsuit
– When in doubt wear a black suit. If you are looking for something timeless, classic & slimming, a black one piece is your best bet.
-To hide a tummy, look for rouching detail in the midsection. This distracts and disguises that trouble area.
-To elongate your mid-section, (if you are short waisted), look for a V-neck line. This will make you look longer & slimmer (with a 1 piece).
-To elongate your legs, look for higher cut bottoms. Make sure the bottoms that are hitting you above your hip bone (the fullest part of your hips).
-If you are heavier on top ( avoid large ruffles & embellishments (that will just add more bulk to that area).
-If you are larger on the bottom, try a solid color (2 piece) on the bottom & a printed top.
