It's August Already and summer is still in full swing. It is the season of sunshine, vibrant colors, swimwear, and resort wear. It's also time to make those last-minute vacations happen, as we gear up to get back at it while these kiddos get back to school. Whether you're heading to a tropical island or simply lounging by the pool, having the right outfits for sultry summer nights and shimmering days is a must. Here's what you need to know about summer swim and resort wear.

Swimwear trends for this summer include bold prints, ruffles, and high-waisted bottoms. Animal prints such as leopard or snakeskin are all the rage, while floral and paisley designs are also a hit. Ruffles add feminine flair to simple one-piece or bikini designs. And high-waisted bottoms are not only flattering, but they also provide added coverage for those who aren't comfortable showing too much skin. In terms of colors, pastels are a popular choice, as well as bright neon hues. Classic black and white swimsuits are also a great choice that never goes out of style.

Our resort wear is all about relaxed, breezy styles for hot summer days. Maxi dresses, wide-leg pants, and rompers are three popular styles that are both comfortable and stylish. Choose lightweight fabrics such as cotton, linen, or silk to help keep you cool. Bold and bright colors such as vibrant yellows, oranges, and pinks are perfect for resort wear. Alternatively, you can opt for more muted colors such as ivory, beige, or navy, which can be dressed up with colorful accessories such as scarves or statement jewelry. When it comes to accessories, sunglasses, wide-brimmed hats, and straw tote bags are the perfect accompaniment to summer resort wear. Wedges or sandals are also a must-have for a chic and comfortable look.

So basically summer swim and resort wear are all about feeling confident, comfortable, and stylish. No matter your summer plans, choosing the right swimwear and resort wear will help you look and feel your best. Remember to choose styles and colors that are flattering to your body type and personal taste, and don't be afraid to experiment with bold prints and colors to create a unique look. Happy what's left of summer!
