New Adorable Bathing Suits For Mommies

It’s March, and soon the last of the snow will melt and the flowers will begin to bloom. The weather is warming and to some of us, that means only one thing – its time to think about bathing suit season again. That dreaded prospect is only increased by that last bit of baby weight we can’t lose, or the bulge that we can’t seem to rid while we chase after curious toddlers and crawling babies. The good news – there are more options than ever to not only hide those problem areas, but swimwear that will make us feel good and sexy and yes, even be the hot-mommy at the pool this summer.

One of the favorites that everyone is talking about is the new line of incredible shaping swimsuits by Spanx. The One-Shoulder One Piece ($178) is a flattering, shaping suit that not only holds in the tummy, but smooths the love handles, while still giving a sexy neckline emphasized by some soft ruffles across the one shoulder silhouette. If spending almost $200 on a bathing suit is out of your comfort zone, there are plenty of great options that shape and flatter. Victoria’s Secret’s Very Sexy Retro One Piece ($88) shows off that great cleavage that we’ve acquired now that we’re mommies, while hiding our love handles under stylish side ruching.

Want to show a little more skin but still not sure you’re ready for a full on bikini? Try MARC BY MARC JACOBS “Bow” Bandini Top and Briefs ($107 – $85) . With a cute little bow on the bust, the shoulders have free range to soak up the sun and hold up giggling little ones. The full coverage briefs help us shape that rear while still showing a little leg that seems lengthened with the emphasis of a bow.

Still having a hard time deciding? There are more options than ever to shape, slim and look great for this summer. Emphasize your new curves, hide those bulges and don’t be afraid of your new sexy body! And of course – don’t forget the cover-ups, like this great hooded tunic at Nordstroms ($48).
