You Would Have the Worst Tan Lines…

Tomorrow evening I will be heading up to Cape Cod to spend the holiday weekend with my family and there are only two words on my mind – sun and swim. After getting back in the pool over Memorial Day I am eager to swim laps outdoors again and when the exercise is over I will be worshiping the sun with proper SPF. Sure, sure, there will be family game nights, delicious food, and lots of laugh but sun and swim are on my mind. I will be brining one pieces from my old swimming days and bikinis to layout.

While packing it got me thinking of all of the strange bathing suits I have been seeing lately, suits that if you wore to the beach or the pool – or in the case of my friends and I, in the park or on your roof – you would have the weirdest tan lines. I didn’t think about making it a post until I saw an absolutely ridiculous one piece at Bloomgindale’s and thus, a blog post.

I was shocked at how many options there were – almost 100 suits that would give you weird tan lines but these are my favorites. All of the beach shots are from Victoria’s Secret and honestly, even Candice Swanepoel would have odd tan lines if she was in those suits for more than 15 minutes. Plus, if your body does not look like the South African bombshell’s (and whose does?) these suits would most likely not be flattering. Here are my top 17:

Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy Cutout Triangle Top with Cutout Hipkini
Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy High-Neck Halter Top


DKNY Solid One Shoulder Asymmetrical Cut Out One Piece Swimsuit
Lauren Ralph Lauren Ava Crochet Strapless One Piece Swimsuit


Victoria’s Secret Forever Sexy One-Shoulder Monokini
Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy Mesh Cutout One-Piece

Agent Provocateur Mazzy Cutout Swimsuit


Free People Mikoh Swimwear Strappy Racer Back Top
Urban Outfitters Kovey String-Back One-Piece Swimsuit


Forever 21 Beaded Fringed Monokini

Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy Crisscross-Strap Bandeau with High-Waist Bottom


Victoria’s Secret Beach Sexy Bandeau and Strappy Bottom
77 Superman Bodice One Teaspoon


Mauritius Colour Block Swimsuit
ASOS Cupped Cut Out Trim Bandeau Swimsuit

Putting together this collection I noticed two things – the first is that these pieces or suits tended to be more expensive than their “normal” counterparts and the majority were on sale – I wonder why!

Would you ever wear one of these?
