The swim lines are out, and there has never been more selection in plus-size two pieces. About this time, two years ago the lovely Gabi Gregg
dared to go on vacation and flaunt her curves in a two-piece from
Simply Be, bringing to the forefront on a national level (hello,
Today Show segments) the topic of fat shaming but also the choice as a double digit diva to wear something other than a tankini or one-piece.
One of my favorite bloggers,
The Militant Baker has a great recap of some of the great bikinis out there available in double digit sizes and I am in love with the suits at
Forever 21 (see pic above),
ModCloth (this gingham!!),
Monif C (more on the AWESOME launch party soon) and of course the second super cute,
super fast selling line by Gabi Gregg for
SwimsuitsforAll.

While we still have a long way to go, in people accepting their bodies (including myself) but what I really love is the versatility afforded me by the new interest by fashion brands in girls my size and larger. I can wear a one-piece one day, a retro bikini the next, and a midkini the next (see
Gabi Fresh's ADORABLE suit below) and feel confident and beautiful the whole time!
Are you planning to rock a bikini this summer?
I just came across your blog and would love to have you involved in my 101 bikini/fatkini babes post. All the information is here.....http://fatshionpeepshow.blogspot.ca/2014/06/keep-calm-and-bikini-at-any-size.html
