ttF Fashion Staple: Gold Hoops
Beach cover-ups can be incredibly pricy. And unless you’re a jet setter, really how often do you wear flowy tunics over bikinis? That’s why I like using tops as beach cover-ups. You’ve already seen my fave chiffon one from Forever 21 and a steal I scored from Chico’s over the summer. This is actually a plus-size top that I wear as a tunic. It was my ex-boyfriend’s mother’s and I can tuck it into jean shorts or wear as is over a bathing suit. Since we were stopping by a pool party today, I added gold accents with a simple pair of hoops and metallic flip-flops.

As for the bathing suit, I tried The Fit Specialist at Swimspot. They help you select bathings suits according to your shape and sense of style. My girlie self ended up with this adorable ruffled two piece in olive, which makes the flirty details more sophisticated. (more…)

Memorial Day weekend marks the official start of summer—and it’s when most of realize we need to whip our body in shape ASAP for bathing suit season. One of the biggest questions on everyone’s mind is always, What looks good on my body type? So, I’ve asked the experts over SwimSpot to share some of their tips on figure-flattering suits. Check out their guest post below, and then come back tomorrow for my video that shows trendy suits for all body types.

SwimSpot guest blogging here. Your one and only source to the latest news, tips, and tricks for being part of the beach bombshell elite.

First things first, a common faux pas for fashion is not dressing for your body type. Growing up during those awkward pre-teen years (you’re a saint if you didn’t), we thought we could pull off any cool trend and just throw it on. Baggy overalls, platform sneakers, two size too small, you name it. Result: bad news where your flaws are intensified with must- burn-now polaroids.
