Target and Amazon Swimsuit Haul!
Many boxes arrived from two of my favorite places to find affordable swimsuits! I got myself a spray tan and started snapping some pics. Only sharing the best of the best here! Target has free shipping and returns and almost all pieces from Amazon ship prime!
If I wear sunglasses, can I forget that I am totally taking pics of myself in swimsuits in front of all of you? haha! Let me start off with a *full disclaimer. I am not a swimsuit model, nor do I claim to be. I am a 40 year old Mom to two boys. I enjoy going to the gym and eating healthy but I also enjoy beer and sweets. ;) LOL. If you are in the market to see swimsuits on a regular sized gal like myself, look no further!! I typically wear size 10 in pants, M in tops, and I size up to L in swimsuits and jackets. I am 5’7”. When I comment TTS, that just means that the garment fit me True to Size in my usual swimsuit size L, so I can help you with sizing and ordering. All details and links to shop will be below each pic. Please be sure to follow me on Facebook to get more fashion ideas and to ask any questions you may have! I hope you are getting excited for a trip or summer break! Now let’s get to the fun part!
Where can I start with this beauty of a suit, the pattern is just gorgeous and the tank style has a bit of a Baywatch vibe! This little tie front sarong is an affordable little coverup to give you just enough coverage for hanging poolside or at the beach! Accessories can really take your swim look up a notch. Don’t forget to add a few pieces you love! I usually add a pretty necklace and this star one is perfect for summer!
You can shop all these pieces here:
Swimsuit - Fits me TTS in my normal swimsuit size L.
Sarong Skirt - Fits me TTS in L. Mine is the black sheer.
Shoes options: Size up if in between in these. Mine have crystals but are limited stock so I listed some similar options below.
The animal print trend is still going strong and I am TOTALLY on board!! This swimsuit has the cutest details including the side ties and the back. My hat is new and such a deal!! Throw it on after a day at the beach along with this little tie front coverup and you will be ready for beach side cocktails!
You can shop all these pieces here:
Swimsuit - I’d size down if in betweeen on this one. I am in the L with a little room, so the M may have worked too.
Cover up - TTS. I’m in L.
Hat - Mine is khaki.
My shoes - Sand patent. Size up if in between. You can also find them here.
The colors in this gorgeous suit are even more stunning in person. The details on the back are unique and sexy. This is my pick of the Target suits! I added the little tie front sarong here as well to have a cover up option!

One trend that I think is the BEST is the high waist bikini bottom. I carry my weight around my middle. It’s the first place I gain and the last place I lose. I never felt comfortable in a two piece till I discovered the amazing-ness that is the high waisted bottom! If you are on the fence, give it a whirl! This suit is the cutest with all the details and comes in other color combos if leopard isn’t your jam. This long dress is a great coverup, is super soft, and has pockets! Perfect for after a day in the sun!

I actually bought this one last year from Target and it is in and out of stock so I really wanted to share it as the colors are just gorgeous! The lace front detail in the front gives a little sexy vibe too! This initial necklace gives it a little sparkle pool side too!

Coverup - TTS. I’m in an L, but the M would have been fine, just shorter.

It’s good to have a black suit available!! I ordered both of these from Amazon and they are both available in other colors too! The one on the left looks beautiful for the pic, BUT I only recommend it for those that are on the shorter side or have short torsos. I am 5’7” and this one is pulling on me as it is just too short. The one on the right is super comfy and the mesh detail is a sexy little surprise!
You can shop all these pieces here:
Suit on left - I only recommend this for the shorter ladies or ladies with short torsos. I am 5’7” and it was NOT long enough for me. I am in the size L here for reference. It is adorable though!
Suit on right - Fits me TTS in my normal swimsuit size L.
Flip Flops - Size up for half sizes.
I’m all about a fun coverup and these are both so damn sassy!! They are in and out of stock in the leopard prints but are available in other colors and prints as well!
You can shop all these pieces here:
Coverup on the left - I’m TTS in the M. I would have ordered the L for add’l length but it was outta stock. So I snagged it in the M!
Coverup on the right - In in the L here and have plenty of room. M would have been fine too. TTS.
Hat - Mine is khaki.
Flip Flops - Size up for half sizes.
Phew…that was a long one ladies!! But it is nice to keep all the swim ideas together I think!! I wanted to also post a few options that I bought last year that are back in stock this year and I highly recommend!
Cover up - Highly recommend. I own in slit white.
Off shoulder swimsuit - Size up. It’s adorable!
