It’s officially SUMMER in the great ATX. We have arguably one of the best cities to *summer* (as a verb) in. Between Barton Springs, Amy’s Ice Cream, and all the cool hotel pools in the city...this is the best place to enjoy the heat.
I know I am a boudoir photographer, and you’ll mostly see blog posts sharing lingerie ideas with you. But gosh I love a good swim suit. I own too many. And I’ll always buy another.
So here are 3 of my top suggestions of where to buy swimwear for your best Austin Summer!
H&M. Always a solid choice. They have a large array of options, and even offer cup/band sizes in some of their tops for a better fit. They are very reasonably priced, and I usually buy 1-2 from them each year.
2. Jolyn. Unless you are somewhat involved in the sports world, you probably haven’t heard of Jolyn. And you should because they’re amazing. I first heard about them back in my club coaching job, and as a former swimmer they are all I swim in now. They are sexy & cute, but also stay in place so you can be a little more active. Perfect for stand-up paddle boarding, or if you are going to be in your suit all day and want a little more support. They run very small, so size up 2 or 3 times.
3. Zaful (available on Amazon). To be fair, I’ve only bought one with them, but I’m obsessed. It was this one, and it was so flattering even when I was just a month or two post-partum. And the material is quality. I’ll definitely try them again - they’ve got lots of cute options.
