I’m a mom and I am on the hunt for a flattering, cute, and still stylish one piece and coverup to sport at the beach next month. Didn’t think it would be a task to find this, but I despise swimsuit shopping (like most of you I’m sure), so it’s been a bit harder than I first suspected… I have a short torso, petite frame, but my legs aren’t my favorite part of my body so I’ve been eyeing options that divert their attention away from the lower half. Finally I found some I’m loving and some adorable coverup options, too… all budget friendly, which make this savvy shopper smile a little bit bigger. Help!!
I have been on a major hunt for a suit and cover-up as well for an upcoming trip. I have yet to find the perfect one piece, but I did score a new cover-up this week. It's from Dillards (do you have those down South)? I love that it is light weight and okay to get wet and/or spilled on by the kiddos. Yet, the colors are festive and you can't see through it! I hate when cover-ups are so thin that you feel like you are wandering through shops/restaurants baring all. Anyway, I thought I would share.

Im on the same boat. Im a new mom, and I have an upcoming trip to Maui, so Im on the hunt for some perfect swimsuits and cover ups. I love #3, but Im a sucker for pinup looking suits.
Cute options!! Love the orange one, number 6.
You should check out these open front cover ups from Nordstrom! They're super cute and super inexpensive!

These are all such great choices! Admittedly I was drawn to that JCrew Factory coverup tunic as well. I actually ordered it and had it shipped here to Hawaii because we don't have an actual store (the struggle is REAL!!!) and it's not as long as I would have liked. My thighs are not my favorite part of my body so I wanted something that was a bit longer/flowy/etc. These sort of cut my leg off, which was such a let down! In any case, now I'm rambling but I just thought I would share my experience with that one! However, I'm not all doom and gloom–I scored this jumpsuit last year from H&M (different pattern) and I LOVE it! It's airy and light so it's perfect for hot weather and it's flowy enough to be flattering, but fitted enough to make sure you don't look like a sack of potatoes. http://www.hm.com/us/product/70530?article=70530-A
