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!
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.

If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen pictures from my recent trip to Iceland (if you don’t, follow me here!). I completely fell in love with this country and it’s temperamental beauty (which I can totally relate to). A highlight of my trip included a morning at the Blue Lagoon Geothermal Spa, right outside of Reykjavik. It’s one of the 25 Wonders of the World and it is breathtaking and magical! So what do you wear to one of the most beautiful places in the world? A fabulous swimsuit with tiered ruffles in shades of blue from Avenue Plus*!
From the mystical steam to the bright blue water — I felt like I was in another world! The water in the Blue Lagoon is blue from the Silica, Algae and Minerals that exist naturally in this geothermal pool. The water is about 100 degrees — so warm and delightful!

Forever 21 Plus has really stepped up their plus size fashion game lately. Not only did they debut a plus size activewear line recently, but they are continuing to put out some of the absolute MOST DARLING plus size swimsuits on the market right now. I bought my first “fatkini” at Forever 21 last year, and it’s still one of my absolute favorites (see the post here). This year, I was all set to buy another 2-piece, but as soon as I laid eyes on this ADORABLE Forever 21 Plus Size Lemon/Leaf One-Piece, I had to have it!

It’s still cold here in Chicago (it was only 42 degrees when we did this shoot!!), but I’m already dreaming of how and when and where I’m going to wear this swimsuit this season!
