Essential Swimwear Review and $50 G/C Giveaway 5/6 CLOSED

I have been searching for a super cute swimsuit.  I first need to say that I am the mom of 2 and that I was looking for a swimsuit that is appropriate for a mom to wear.  My problem has been I didn't want to wear my a swimsuit that looked like something my grandma would wear.  (Sorry Gram)

I was browsing through the selection from Essential Swimwear and loved the suits.  I first want to say that they are really cute and stylish.  However, they are modest enough that they cover you well enough.  They offer a variety of swim tops and bottoms.  I really love the idea that you can get your top and bottom separately.  This is important because not everyone wears the same size on top and bottom.  I also like the idea that you can pick your own suit and make it unique this way too.  If you choose a specific top there might be a few choices you have for bottoms.  Essential Swimwear also offers some really cute one piece suits, swim skirts and board shorts too.

I chose a 2 piece suit, but it is not your traditional bikini.  I'm getting too old to wear that kind of swimsuit.  I chose a top that is more like a fitted tank.  I chose the Watermelon Dots Halter Top.  It's really cute.  I love this swimsuit top for a number of reasons.  The best thing about it is that it fits perfect.  It fits very true to size.  I also love that it is not too short.  I have seen swimsuit tops that are tank style, but they still show half your tummy.  It is adorable.  I love the color of this swim tank.  I chose to go with the watermelon high waisted bottoms.  I am so glad that I did.  They are really cute, but what I love is that they seemed to help flatten my tummy a little.  Overall, Essential Swimwear makes a quality swimsuit that is adorable.

If you want to  purchase your own swimsuit from Essential Swimwear you can do so right from their website. It really is fun to be able to pick out your own unique suit by mixing and matching tops and bottoms.  Essential Swimwear is also providing my readers a 10% off code.  Use FRUGALMOMMIE10 at the checkout to take advantage of this!
