I love summer more than any other season. This probably has something to do with the fact that I was born and raised in Oregon, so summer is really only 2 months. Every year I start looking at tons of website starting around January to figure out which bikini I will buy that year. I will only buy one full priced swim suit a year.

Because I start my research so early I know who has what pretty quickly. I also stick to a few key brand because they work for women with all body types. Currently I have to find suits that have either supported cups or cups with underwire. Below I included some brands that are good and work for a variety of body types.

 

Swimwear from Victoria’s Secret

I will always stand strongly behind Victoria’s Secret Swimwear for the following reasons

Well Organized Website

Large selection of styles, coverage, and colors.

Tops that can be ordered by bra size, like 36D.

Competitive prices for the VS brand.

Even if you do not order a suit from Victorias Secret its a great site to look at in order to figure out what you want to get, and how much you want to spend. The selection is nice when you are just browsing.

This bikini will make anyone’s boobs look great. $66

This suit provides lots of support and still looks great. $80

Crazy patterns are fun, and because a bikini is so tiny the pattern isn’t overwhelming. $110

This top has medium support and is very comfortable. $40

For all of us who love tie dye. $40.

This monokini looks classy and sexy for women who don’t want to show their tummy. $98.

Tankinis are also great if you aren’t fond of your tummy. $78.

 

Swimwear from Roxy

Roxy is cute swim suits that are meant to be worn by women who surf, so they will last a long time.

This pattern will help show off a tan. $78.

For those who want to get noticed. $78.

This tie dye reminds me of tropical beaches. $78.

Beautiful black and white flowers. $72.

 

Swimwear by Vix

Vix is on the expensive end. The swimsuits are really good quality, double lined and quality construction. Nordstrom sells Vix swimwear, which I always take as a good sign because Nordstrom stands behind their products and will do full refunds. Vix has really unique patterns each year. The tops are  supportive and thick enough fabric that you won’t nip.

This is the classiz Vix Bikini. $154.

Stripes are always fun. $100.

The ties on this bikini make it very unique. $160.

 

Swimwear by Raisins

I love Raisins because of their patterns. The suits are also put together really well.

This brand makes the greatest summer patterns.

Reversible bikinis are always nice to have.

Brushstrokes look so pretty in multi colors.

I love all shades of green.

This reminds me of the sun sparkling on the rocks when snorkeling.

Bold color combos are always fun in the summer.

 

Swimwear by ChynnaDolls

ChynnaDolls.com is the site you won’t to go to if you want a itsy bisty teeny weeny bikini. They also carry bikinis with lace detail which is becoming more popular. The suits are made for curvy women so even if you are a full D cup the string tops will work, I know I’ve tried one on.

This brand makes smaller than average bottoms. This pattern is $80.

This is the littest bottom they offer besides a thong. $50.

I think this large poka dot pattern is too cute. $56.

This site also has super cute crocheted bikinis. $90.

Crochet patterns are so pretty to me. $90.

 

The next time you get down about the cold weather, go online window shopping for bikinis. I hope you enjoy the pictures and all the sites.
