Swimsuit Special 2016: One Piece

I know that a lot of you prefer one piece swimsuits over bikinis, so I’ve found a range of different styles, from halter necks to togs that are great for swimming laps. Bring on that summer sunshine!

Nothing says summer like nautical, and this suit is screaming out for sunny days and salty seas. I love the sweet 50’s inspired style, the cute print and it also has detachable straps so you can wear it strapless if that’s your jam. Available in sizes 2X-4X (18-22).

Y’all know how I feel about stripes and monochrome, right? When they come together it’s pretty much perfection! I love the plunge neckline on this suit, which comes in sizes 14-22.

Speaking of plunge necklines, how cool is this halterneck number? I feel like the girls would be a lot more secure in this one piece, because there is a bit more coverage, but I’d probably still stick to the pool with this one rather than hitting the surf. Available in sizes 18-28.

I’m really getting in to patterned swimsuits this year (and maybe even a little bit of colour? We’ll see!) and love this crossover style. Available in sizes 16-26.

I’m seriously loving the graphic print on this swimsuit, and I think that the red piping makes a cool addition to this otherwise monochromatic swimsuit. Available in sizes 18-24.

I know a few of you mentioned to me last year that you didn’t want a swimsuit that showed your, er, bits. I’ve seen a few of these swimsuits around this year that fit like a normal pair of togs but then have an overlay panel at the front. Ta-dah! No bits on show. Available in sizes 14-26.

I get lots of people asking about swimsuits that give a bit more coverage at the top, and that are good for swimming actual lengths, and I love this tank style for that. This also has the benefit of being chlorine resistant, so it’s perfect for the pool. Available in US sizes 8-26 (NZ 12-30).

I seem to be very drawn to blue this summer (as you will have guessed from this post and some of my recent outfits!), so you probably won’t be surprised at this cute blue printed number! Available in US sizes 10-24 (NZ 14-28).

I’m very partial to polka dots and love the navy and white combination of this swimsuit.  The twist detail on the bust looks really nice on and the straps are adjustable to help you get a great fit. Available in sizes 18-24.

The sweetheart neckline and adjustable straps make this suit a win for me. Actually, you had me at adjustable straps – I think they’re key to getting a good fit (and helping your boobs sit where you want them to). Available in sizes 16-26.

My friend Rachel is partial a bird print so I’m always keeping an eye out for it. I spied this cute number, which I think has parrots. This swimsuit comes in sizes 14-22 and is suitable for up to an F cup.

I absolutely love the design and print of this swimsuit – if anything says “sipping cocktails by the side of the pool in a glam location”, it would be this! Comes in size 14-22 with dual cup sizes C/D and DD/E.

Tempted to go for something a little more daring? Check out this number – not only does it have an amazing graphic print, the cut out detail is definitely eye catching! Available in sizes 18-26.
