Ice cream Swim






I've blogged about this bikini before but I got a lot of DM's about it on IG so I decided to make a new one so it could be easy to find. 

I bought this swim at mod cloth last Fourth of July sale. I absolutely love everything about it. It's very retro but it's cute at the same time. I'm not usually comfortable in overly sexy pieces but I absolutely adore this one because of the print and Ruffles. 

It's almost true to size but I find the top runs slightly tight. I'm a true 34 b and I feel like it slightly squishes my boobs. But I do feel like a 36 b would hang off. So I would suggest going a cup size up or the equivalent of the next size up. (remember that going up doesn't mean increasing the band) 

I looked for the link but it doesn't appear to be on the site. I remember finding this swim last January when it was sold out and it appeared back for sale around spring. They have a habit of selling things that are in demand. I have however made a few links for other swim suits that are similar in print, style or have a retro vibe. :) 

FYI you don't have to be super skinny to wear a high waist bikini! I personally think any body type can rock this type of swim suit. So don't be afraid to try it.
