Friday Distractions: One Piece Wonders

Friday Distractions: One Piece Wonders

Sunrise One Piece

For years one-piece bathing suits were all function. They were relegated to the swim team uniform and were not the first choice for those who wanted to have a little flair at the beach. But it’s 2019 now, and nobody is gonna put our one-pieces in a corner. We have a broad range of styles and cuts, all of them totally adorable, functional, and -- dare we say it -- sexy. So many of our one piece swimsuits have expanded chest sizes (hurray!) and fit a range of different figures and sizes. We’re super excited about our one-piece line up this summer… so excited that we might even declare this the Summer of the One-Piece bathing suit.


If you’ve been a lifelong bikini lover (Raises hand! We know how you feel), we suggest dipping your toes into the one-piece pool with the Villa One Piece. This cheeky low-back one-piece is great for lounging in the sunshine, taking a relaxing swim, or even doing some low impact water sports. Order it in black and pair it with a wide-brimmed hat for a classy poolside look or check it out in cinnamon shimmer for a sexier summer vibe.


The Waikiki One Piece also boasts a low, sexy back. The adjustable t-strap in the back is both functional and stylish, and helps you adjust the suit so it fits perfectly. This simple suit has medium coverage on the top and the bottom, and is a great fit for casual fun in the sun. The Largo pattern is especially sunny for summertime and would be a perfect addition to your swimsuit collection.


Both the Beacon Full Piece and the Inverness One Piece are provide full coverage up top. These two suits come in the expanded sizes, so they’ll not only be flattering but also supportive and comfortable for those with a fuller bust (yay!). These are the bathing suits that will take you from the beach volleyball court, to the SUP, and back again. They both come in multiple adorable patterns and have criss-crossed straps in the back. If you’re looking for an active summer suit, these two will be your go-to options.


One reason you may want to pick up a one-piece this season is additional sun coverage. Sometimes we just need a little bit more protection than a bikini can provide, but you may not want to wear a rash guard all the time. Enter the Sunrise One Piece. This suit is the perfect mid-point between a tank suit and a rash guard. This unique and adorable short sleeved one piece provides the necessary extra sun coverage but doesn’t sacrifice on styling. Fun fact: this suit runs a little long in the torso, so tall girls, this one's for you!


Whether you’re looking for a suit that’s sexy or functional or all of the above, our one-piece collection this year will have your back. Who says bikinis get to have all the fun? Certainly not us.

Friday Distractions Playlist
We've picked the perfect tune to welcome the month of May and all the warm summer months ahead. This month, we selected Still Woozy featuring ODIE "Lucy". Woozy has been masterfully churning out vibrant indie electronic records and we hope he doesn’t stop. It feels like he’s going for a psychedelic soundscape but is able to add an electronic touch. The feature from bay area vocalist ODIE rounds out the track nicely, and it’s refreshing to see two rising artists collaborating.
