Happy Memorial Day! Swim Away!

Off the Shoulder tank
If you live anywhere remotely near the Midwest right now, then you are likely trying to beat the heat.  It is incredibly hot, not the best weather to be out gardening, walking the dogs or other activities.  If you are lucky enough to own or visit a pool, then happy swimming.  Here are a couple of my favorite bathing suits by J. Crew.

Lomellina CrissCross Bandeau tank
I love the Jersey Lomellina CrissCross bandeau tank in earthy colors which are just sumptuous for the beach.  If you are lucky, then grab the garden floral tunic which is 30% off its markdown price of $69.99.  I love this tunic because it can go as a swim coverup to just a pretty blouse.

Skirted Twist Bandeau Tank
Tulle French Twist Top
The Off the shoulder tank is gorgeous.   It has that kind of 50's retro feel with coverage in all the right places while still feeling sexy.  Part of this is because of the ruching along the body. I am a big fan of the belvedere red (so pretty for Memorial and 4th of July!), but there is also a great range of other colors as well.  I also like this Signature swimwear because it dries quickly and doesn't lose its color.  The nylon/Lycra/spandex blend is a fav for sure.

From prints, to polka dots and solids galore, J. Crew continues to be my favorite place to grab suits.  They are all relatively flattering regardless of body type so it makes it easy to pick.

Cheers!
