Helping women love what they wear on a budget

The Perfect Mom One-Piece Bathing Suit

August 21, 2017 by Katie Haller

I know that summer vacation is coming to an end for most people and fall fashion is on the brain, but here in Las Vegas we still have a few more months of summer weather left.  That’s why I felt like now would be a good time to talk about bathing suits.  Unlike most people who typically buy bathing suits early in the season, I like to wait until August to do my bathing suit shopping.   You can usually find some really great prices on bathing suits in late summer.  

This summer, I spent a lot of time looking for the right bathing suit, for the right price.  I wanted to find something different this summer that was a little more conservative than my other suits.  I only own 2 piece bikini’s, but now that I’m a mom, I wanted to find something that was a little more practical.  I browsed all my favorite stores this summer, looking for a one-piece that I could easily wear while swimming with Jack, but also wouldn’t make me look like an old lady, but I could not find anything.  
After no luck in the stores, I decided I had to look online.  I don’t shop online very often, but sometimes it can be very convenient for a working mom.  After searching for lots of online stores, I ended up going with Amazon.  I always underestimate shopping on Amazon for clothes.  We buy a lot of things from Amazon, but I always forget that you can buy almost anything there, including bathing suits.  I found that Amazon had the best selection and the best prices.
I ended up buying2 bathing suits for under $30 for both.  Today, I’m focusing on this black scalloped halter one-piece bathing suit. (I’ll save the other bathing suit for a later post.)  This suit was everything I was looking for in a one-piece.  It’s conservative, yet youthful.  I love the scallop look and I went with black because it’s always a safe color choice.  I like how this bathing suit has a high neckline because that was a problem I was running into with my other bathing suits.  Jack was always pulling at my top.  

So far I’m happy with my purchase.  It had been so long since I last wore a one-piece, that I forgot how much I liked them.  Now I feel like I’m all ready to enjoy the rest of our pool season!

If you’re looking for a new mom-friendly bathing suit, but you don’t want to spend a lot of money, I’ve rounded up 12 great bathing suits for you.  All of them are under $30!  I wish that I could buy them all!

    What darling suits! It's so hard to find good "mom suits" that are actually cute. These look like they would pass the help-a-kid-without-accidentally-flashing-anyone test and are so pretty! I'll have to check them out!

    Bathing suit shopping is always so tricky. I always go for a bit more conservative look (I've had too many suits that liked to pop off because I get pretty active in the pool lol), so I tend to go for tankinis. These one pieces look great, though!

    So many fun suits! Yours is darling. I wish I could find a great one piece but I have a long torso and usually the only ones that come longer are not as cute, haha.

    I agree! The suits that I found in the stores were either too old lady or too skimpy. I was happy to find something in between. 🙂

    Tankinis are nice, because you can mix and match them. The other bathing suit I bought was a high waisted suit. I like that option too!

    Thanks! I could see that being a problem when shopping for one pieces.

They aren't sick enough to be sick, but feel yucky enough to be whiny and clingy. Hopefully it will pass soon. For now, my lap is the most popular seat in the house.
