Okay, it’s time to get hip, mommas. I don’t know about you but it really perks me up to see moms primp themselves up and be proud of their bodies instead of hiding them under tents and scarves, or whatever. Just because we’ve had babies and gotten ourselves tangled up in all that goo goo ga ga doesn’t me we can’t look downright gorgeous, right?

Portofino Black Lingerie Strap Swimsuit by Badgley Mischka

First, I got to say the Portofino Black Lingerie Strap Swimsuit is one gorgeous piece of sunny wear. The V-neckline accentuates your bust and that shirred bodice so subtly embellished with jewels running down the center minimizes your torso and gives it a slim look. The swimsuit bottom provides modest coverage so you can keep everything nice and tight.

Solid Berry Wide Straped Swimsuit by Badgley Mischka

The Solid Berry Wide Straped Swimsuit features a sweetheart neckline which accentuates the bust and the wider straps give it a nice touch. The shirred crossover design visually slims your torso to give it a more streamlined look. This swimsuit comes in several colors to suit your taste.

Portofino Stone V Neck Swimsuit by Badgley Mischka

I love the simple lines of the Portofino Stone V Neck Swimsuit. The crossover V-neckline accentuates the bust and the shirred empire waist with jewel embellishments visually gives the torso that slimming effect. Got to say the color is pretty unique, love it !
