Summer Lovin’

Bikini Top & Bottom {ASOS} *on sale!* identical top for my smaller chested ladies | Cover Up {Old Navy} | Hat {Target} *on sale online only* | Sunnies {Karen Walker} | Sandals {Zara} | Bag {market find} in love with this one | Manicure {OPI Strawberry Margarita}

So I debated not posting these pictures at all, until I coincidentally came across IFB’s ‘Guide to Fearless Blogging’ while staring at the publish button.

My hesitation isn’t because I am self conscious about my body. Instead,  I questioned whether posting pictures of me in a bathing suit on the blog was appropriate. Then I realized I have something I want to share (will get to that in a moment) and it’s my blog and I’ll post if I want to.

So let’s get to the point I want to make…

We all know about my love for ASOS’ dresses but I never really explored elsewhere on their site. Then one day there was a killer summer sale and I stumbled into the swimwear section. There it was, multiple options for “fuller chested” gals. I almost fainted. No… really.

I have been struggling with finding bathing suits that actually fit for as long as I can remember. Being a girl with a larger bust and smaller back ensures that buying an XXL top, and tying a suit that actually clasps into a knot, is my only option. This in-turn left my neck and back in pain after only one hour, because the suit was not actually cut for my odd size.

All in all, ASOS’ options of affordable bathing suits for all sizes have been a game changer for me, starting with this polka dot bikini.

Talk about summer lovin’.

ASOS has not asked me to write about their swimsuits. I just found something that works for me and had to share.

Open

Dress {c/o Mango for JCP} | Sandals {Zara} |  Monogram Necklace {Max & Chloe} | Long Chain Necklaces {c/o Christina M Boutique} | Watch {Michael Kors} | Bracelet {Yurman} | Spike Bracelet {F21} very similar |  Sunnies {House of Harlow 1960} |  Lipstick {NARS – Heat Wave} | Manicure {OPI Strawberry Margarita}

This is the last look of my JCPenney finds (see the first here and second here). My love for this dress knows no bounds. The perfect length, my favorite color to wear and an unpredictable element of surprise… the stunning back!

I am once again shocked I found this dress at a JCPenney and I am pretty sure this dress will be a go-to for years to come.
