I can’t believe it is nearing swimsuit time. While I have finally lost all my baby weight my body ain’t what it used to be. All you mommies know you may lose the weight but your stomach still jiggles and just doesn’t look exactly the same. Since I have had Sterling I have been smitten with one-piece bathing suits. So imagine my delight when I found this Spanx swimsuit at TJmaxx. Retail price $198, what I paid $39.99.


This swimsuit is amazing! Although I should not be surprised as I have several Spanx under garments I absolutely love! I think this bathing suit is cute, sexy, and flattering all in one. I would honestly consider paying full price for another Spanx swim suit that is how fabulous they fit!

My next find was this Marc Jacobs two piece. I have been scouring for a bikini I feel comfortable in since I had Sterling and this one fits the bill. Also from TJMaxx for only $49.99, a steal for a Marc Jacobs Swimsuit. It is strapless but comes with straps if you feel like it. I love the navy color, classic and great with a tan.

Anyone else brave enough to start their swimsuit shopping this early? I think you have to start early to find the best swimsuits and good deals. Especially at TJMaxx they get in great swimsuits, but the cute ones sell out fast!

Have a great weekend! We are having Sterling’s Birthday Party on Saturday, I am so excited to see my family and celebrate. Pictures to come next week!
xoxo

    Oh I hear you on the "jiggles" one suit that I love, but I have never found it at TJ maxx, so I alway pay full price is the Juicy one piece suits. they are strapless, and shirred so they are so flattering. I will be back with the link so you can check it out!!
