After the beautiful weekend we had, who is ready for a full roundup and review of the swimsuits I wore in Saint Lucia? We have some good ones from this trip so get your wallets ready!

Do you notice a one-piece trend here? I think I wore a bikini twice on the trip but never shot it. One-pieces for sure ran the pool on this trip. I used to think one pieces were more for parents (because they always wore them) and children -- always too old or too young for me.
But I was wrong (obviously) and I think over the past few years one pieces are making a strong comeback. It's weird but I almost feel sexier in a one piece than I do in a bikini because they show off all the things I want to highlight, make me slimmer and hide more imperfections.
I know I've recently been sharing a lot of different swimsuits but I wanted to break them down one by one and talk about my likes and dislikes for them individually!

White Off the Shoulder One Piece: (size 6) You might remember this swimsuit in black from my trip to Maui. I loved the black version so much that I had to get it in white! The black was my favorite one piece of all time and what I loved the most was it could be worn so many different ways. I was nervous at first because white swimsuits are usually an oxymoron but this was really well lined and even had an extra liner around the bottom half. I loved how stark white it was but compared to the black, it comes in second. I just think the black is the best swimsuit ever (still) and the white can't compare. On it's own, I obviously love it but next to the black, it falls behind.
(P.S. The black version is fully restocked in all sizes) -- (see full post HERE)
Gingham One Piece (currently 20% until tonight!): (size M) Solid & Striped is one of my favorite swimsuit brands and the original one who made me fall in love with one pieces. I own a few different styles from them but you know when I saw this gingham print it had to be mine. I already knew I was going to love it because I have this style of suit already but that just means that I loved it enough to buy more versions of it. It's a really well made suit and you can't go wrong with anything that this brand carries.

J. Crew Striped One Piece (25% off!): (size 6) I was really excited to wear this swimsuit because of the stripes and the cute ruffle it had along the back. But I really didn't love how this pictured. I feel like it almost blended in with my pale skin and the stripes did me NO favors in the chest or stomach area. The swimsuit itself was also a little flimsy because of the halter neckline. Flimsy in the sense that with the other low scoop back swimsuits I have that go over my shoulders, this one felt more loose and that I could pop out at any time. It's less secure is what I'm trying to say. I'm going to keep it and see if I can tone and tan away my problems but I didn't love this as much as I was hoping!
J. Crew Gingham Off The Shoulder One Piece: (size 6) I bought this swimsuit hoping it would be similar to the black off the shoulder I mentioned above. It had all the makings to be! But the structure of it was a lot less sliming and spanx-esque and more just there. So it wasn't as flattering and I don't know that I loved the way this pictured either. Out of all the swimsuits I wore on this trip, this was probably my least favorite and wouldn't totally recommend buying it.
Which was your favorite??
