bye bye, bikini

okay, maybe that title is a little dramatic. but one piece swimsuits are going to be a big trend this year and i am really excited. no matter how good of a body you have, bikinis have the keen ability to make you feel self-conscious. i mean, it makes sense - it's like wearing underwear in public. except sometimes more revealing.

in my opinion, one pieces are far more flattering too, in addition to being more comfortable. and cliff jumping in a one-piece > cliff jumping in a bikini. here are some of my favorite one-piece suits out there:

i can't help it, i love this suit from volcom. they had a similar one out last year but i almost like the eccentric pattern of this one better. it's just weird enough to be cool.

this suit is so pin-up chic! i don't know if the hip covering would be flattering on everyone, but it could be worth a try.

i'm not sure quite how i feel about "swim dresses" but i kind of like this one...

nordstrom.com

if i had a ton of money, i would get this suit. in the meanwhile, i'd love to see some knockoffs. the crochet is so demure!

that's a little sampling - modcloth and target both have solid collections of pretty suits. i know it won't be swim suit weather for awhile, but i can't help planning ahead...

bisoux!
