my favorite swimsuits: L*space

After all that talk about swimsuits back at the beginning of the summer, my favorite suits are ones that I have not even shared yet! I love these L*Space bikinis because they are cute, flattering, comfortable, easy to move in (read: hard to flash anything), and the material is high quality. I went for the L*Space Sensual Solids Strap Back top in pistachio and pebble. I love both colors. Both are flattering for my skin tone; and I would say that they are flattering to most skin tones. I got two different style bottoms - in pistachio I got the Estella classic bottom (love the cut outs!). In pebble, I got the Monique bottom (love the ruching on sides and back!). I would have to say that both of these bottoms are a little lighter on the coverage. The fronts are lower rise, and the back is definitely lighter coverage, with the Estella bottom offering a little more coverage than the Monique (click through those links to see the rear coverage). I find the slightly more minimal coverage to be flattering on me, so that was one of the selling points for me about these suits.

As I mentioned, the material is high-quality and feels great. They are very functional; I wear mine to chase Raffa around at the pool. And, they come in a bunch of beautiful colors. I am super happy with the colors I choose, but I also love (and am considering purchasing) the shell (a very pale pink), the black, and paprika (bright orangey-red).
