How To Get A Bikini Body, Step One: Put on a plus size bikini

I’m wearing a plus size bikini, y’all! I’m obsessed with this retro-feeling halter neck bikini top from Avenue and these ruched, high-waisted swim bottoms! When I tried this adorable suit on, I was feeling so great, I headed straight out the door and hit the beach here in Chicago. So, how do you get a bikini body? All you have to do is PUT ON A BIKINI!

Plus Size Bikini: Blue Always for Me Swimsuit

When I was planning for my trip to New York City for Full Figured Fashion Week and the Golden Confidence Pool Party, I absolutely could not decide which swimsuit I wanted to bring. So what’s a girl to do when she can’t decide? She takes all 3 and has a few outfit changes during the event! This Always For Me Sundance Plus Size Bikini was one of my favorites, and I had to give it its due at the pool party!

Swim Diva! Rue 107 Plus Size Swim Suit

When I was planning my poolside outfit for this year’s Golden Confidence Plus Size Pool Party, I could NOT decide which one of my swim suits to bring! I wanted something dramatic and unique…and I didn’t to show up in something that another fabulous curvy lady was wearing! I ended up finding the perfect DIVA-RIFFIC two piece swimsuit at Rue 107.

This Rue 107 Miami Bikini Top comes in the most lovely purple-pink color and has these amazing sheer mermaid sleeves. So different and so dramatic! And the bikini bottoms are navy and white stripe with a luscious fruit and foliage motif. I love the way they paired together. So unexpected!

Plus Size Swimsuit: Swim Sexy

So many sexy plus size swimsuits have flooded the market! Five years ago, there were ZERO bikinis for plus sizes, and extremely limited choices in a range dull colors. How times have changed!! Colorful, fun, sexy and trendy plus size swimsuits are EVERYWHERE now! And have you seen the ad campaigns related to them? The recent Swimsuits For All Swim Sexy campaign featuring Ashley Graham, Nicola Griffin, and Philomena Kwao was groundbreaking (see it here), and I seriously almost cried when I saw those beautiful, diverse bodies represented on a national scale. As a Fullbeauty.com Ambassador, I was thrilled that Swimsuits For All is one of their partner brands and I knew I had to have one. As soon as I saw it, I fell in love with this red hot polka dot bikini! It’s actually called the Swim Sexy Diva White Dot High Waist Bikini and you can find it on Fullbeauty.com.

The halter top and highwaisted bottoms in this fun dot print made me feel like a retro pinup girl from the 50s. Swim Sexy suits run small, so definitely order one size up and it’ll fit perfectly! 
I wore this plus size bikini during my recent trip to Iceland when I visited the Fontana Geothermal Baths as part of my “Warm Baths, Cool Lights” Tour that I booked with IcelandAir. The scenery was spectacular, and the chance to experience the geothermal baths like the locals was amazing. And OMG if you go, you have to taste the bread that’s made there — they bake it in underground ovens with the natural heat from the earth. AMAZING.
