Now that the New Year is upon us, it's time to start undoing all of the damage we've done to our figures through the holidays. Before we know it, Spring Break will be here and it will be swimsuit season once again! AAARRRGGGHHH! I used to think that I only had two options when it came to swimwear, one-pieces or bikinis.
Frankly, I don't have the figure to adequately pull off a bikini, and I've always associated a one-piece bathing suit with my grandma, complete with bathing cap. I wish there was a stylish alternative in swimwear that lies somewhere between the one-piece and the bikini. Now, there is!
Trunkettes is a company that has designed a wide variety of swimming trunks just for women. Keep reading to learn much more about the bathing suit which will have you looking terrific just in time for Spring Break!
Feeling Flirty Bathing Suit Top, which retails for $49.99.
TKO Bathing Suit Bottoms, which retail for $54.99.
The thing I really like about Trunkettes is how they've found a stylish alternative to the standard design of women's swimwear bottoms. Now, we can finally wear swim trunks, just like the men do, but with a feminine twist. As soon as I saw the bathing suit in the middle picture above, I just knew that this one would flatter my body in a way that a one-piece or a bikini couldn't. I also loved the pink floral pattern it came in and so I reviewed this exact suit and am happy to say that I am thrilled with what I received.
One of my figure's flaws is definitely my waistline. I've always had a lower belly pooch and love handles no matter how physically fit I am. But, thanks to the Trunkettes TKO swimwear bottoms, these flaws are permanently disguised. The high-waisted band of the TKO bottoms adequately covers my lower stomach as well as my love handles so that my figure looks great!
I also love the feminine accents of pink floral design on the high-waisted drawstring waistband and matching Velcro-closure side pockets. These TKO bottoms are also composed of fast drying Nylon Supplex and even have a built-in bikini bottom inside.
I also really liked how well the Feeling Flirty swimsuit top fit me. I've always preferred the halter style swimwear tops since they tend to enhance and amplify my cleavage. This pink floral Feeling Flirty top has built in softly padded cups and a sewn-in bow on the front. It also ties around the neck and back just like the typical halter top does.
I love the way the Feeling Flirty top and TKO bottoms look together. I am adequately covered, yet still feel stylish and sexy! Want to see some examples of real women wearing varying Trunkettes swimwear styles? Then, just click here.
If you have always wished that there was another swimsuit alternative to the classic bikini and one-piece styles, then I highly recommend the fashionable options from Trunkettes. These swimsuits offer a little more coverage and also help to camouflage common figure flaws too. I really love the TKO bottoms and Feeling Flirty top that I reviewed and am totally excited to sport my new swimsuit this Spring, hopefully in my new post-holiday body!
