Now that it’s officially summer, a fact made undeniable with the heatwave us New Yorkers are experiencing, I thought I would put together the best of swimwear. This selection is from ShopBop, my fav destination for online shopping.
The Classic Bikini: This may look like a simple two-piece bathing suit, but the punch of color and detailing will set you apart from the mass of black bikini’s on the beach. The turquoise hue is bold yet subtle and looks great any any skin tone. The halter meets bandeau top is unique and with the button detailing you can easily wear this underneath a dress. And let’s not forget the sexy ruffle detailing on the bum. No matter what angle people are looking at, if you’re wearing this bikini-you will get noticed!

The Sexy One-Piece: For the more demure person, a one-piece is a perfect option. But just because it’s a one piece doesn’t mean it can’t be sexy! The metallic sheen and cut outs on the side makes this one-piece sexier than the rest. It’s 80′s chic meets va-va-voom.
