REVIEW- Swimsuitsforall: Mommy & Me...a Bathing suit experience!

12:00 AM



Hot weather, poolside & a nice cold drink in your hand, calls for a bathing suit!

I got the opportunity to work with Swimsuitsforall and not only am I blessed and grateful, I am excited because this is a SPECIAL review that includes my mommy!

I found Swimsuitsforall a few years ago and loved everything about them. I loved the swimsuits but most of all, I loved how they celebrated EVERY body type and promote positivity and self-love.

My mom and I come from two different generations. Our tastes are so different yet so the same.  Losing weight has been the same journey but different shoes too. This is a special posts because not only is it showing you two very different women, but two very different takes on swimsuits but with the same message: SELF-LOVE.

Shall we begin?



I got the  Swim Sexy Eclipse Plus Size Fringe (Found HERE)

Being I had lost 100 plus pounds was so scary! I thought, "What did I get myself into? What if I don't feel comfortable? What if I look horrible?" And it came. I unwrapped the package and immediately tried it on. I OWNED it!

SPECIFICS OF THE BATHING SUIT:


    Full powernet tummy control lining smooths and flattens.

    Bandeau neckline with fringe detailing accentuates bust.

    Removable halter strap provides additional bust support and two style options: halter or bandeau.

    Empire waist breaks up torso and visually slims waist.

    Side shirred bodice breaks up torso and visually slims waist.

    High back gives additional bust support

    Soft molded cup bra with plush empire band gives bust support

    Sizes 18-34 fits up to a D/DD cup.

    Sizes 8-16 fits up to a C/D cup.

    Swimsuit fits true to size.


I think I rocked this bathing suit thunder thighs, cellulite and ALL! I loved my body in this bathing suit! It was sexy, fierce, fun, comfortable and lived up to its potential and more! I felt so amazing in this bathing suit. I felt beautiful! Its the perfect bathing suit to feel beautiful in no matter what size!

You can find my bathing suit HERE (Style # 2457)


Now, you will never see my mom in something like this particular bathing suit, in fact, I'm letting my mom take over after I give you the specifics, so she can tell you HER take on her bathing suit.




My momma got  Longitude Maneater Plus Size Tie Front Swimdress  (Found HERE)

I personally think my momma looked FIERCE too! RAWR!

SPECIFICS OF THE BATHING SUIT:

    Powernet tummy control panel smooths and flattens waist. Panel starts just below the bust line and ends at the upper hip line.

    Tie front sweetheart neckline accentuates bust. Designed to resemble the top half of a heart, this tie front accented neckline, draws attention upward to accentuate the bust.

    Empire waist breaks up torso and visually slims waist.

    Soft molded cup bra with plush empire band gives bust support

    Sizes 8-16 fits up to a C/D cup.

    Sizes 18-34 fits up to a D/DD cup.

    Swimdress fits true to size.

    Swimsuit fits true to size but fits well for women with long torso as well.

TAKE IT OVER MA!

I picked this bathing suit not only because I was attracted to it, but as a mature woman, letting myself show so much skin was not an option. After having 3 beautiful children and a 80 pound weight loss, my body isn't what it used to be.  It flattered my figure and made me feel extremely comfortable. I am always worried about straps on bathing suits. Straps can hurt. Not these straps. It left me feeling really comfortable and when you are my age, comfortable is everything. 

You can find her bathing suit HERE (Style # 1307)

As you can see, I am more of a "You got it, flaunt it" type of gal and my momma, not so much! lol. I think we both looked fab though!

It was an exciting experience to walk out the room and let my mom roam Swimsuitsforall.com to come back and see what she chose.

A BIG thank you to Swimsuitsforall for giving me this opportunity!









REVIEW: Dorfman Pacific Scala Collezione V9 Visor

12:00 AM


Summer is approaching and like many, we are all looking for that sun protection! Dorfamn Pacific gives you just that with it's Scala Collezione V9 visor line!

The V49 line of visors from Scala Collezione are made of organic raffia with cotton trim and come in handy when it comes to protecting your eyes from the sun.










Protected my eyes/face from the violent sun rays. L.A is HOT! Okay, hot to us Angelenos is anything above 80's! So don't judge me! Like I said, it sure did protect my eyes and face. The visor also was VERY flexible and light to wear. The adjustable Velcro back-strap makes it VERY easy for ANYONE to use. I even had a big head and it adjusted! So don't worry of you are big headed like me.


This is a great visor to wear for any outdoor activity.

No cons with this item, nothing but pros!


OVERALL:

5 out of 5 stars

Was comfortable, easy to adjust and protected my eyes and face from the sun.
