    Marilyn Monroe Rose Cross Back Swimdre ss, $88, in sizes 18 to 24.

    out that Yours Clothing cartoon-print dress before I got one.)

    I dont have many f ashion rules I hold to . Actually I probably have none except f or this one: never buy a white

    swimsuit if you plan on gett ing it wet. My mom had a super hip white swimsuit back in the day that was way

    awesome until she hit t he ocean and then it became a litt le, uh, transparent. Now if you are looking f or a

    transparent swimsuit, rage on, badass you! But I am not. Generally speaking.

    Nows the part where I throw that rule right out the window because LOOK AT THIS SUIT:

    ARE YOU DYING LIKE I AM? Itscalled the Marilyn Monroe Rose

    Cross Back Swimdress and the only

    way I would love it more is if the

    leafy bits were actually green, but

    whatever. On the up s ide, it has one

    negative review that says, There is

    a sheer like material underneath that

    does no thing but let t he f at jiggle,

    and I am all up in here going YEAH

    THE FAT JIGGLIN.

    And, yes, I know most people on

    earth hate swimdresses BUT I LIKE

    THEM, especially when theyre

    adorable and retro-y like this one.

    WHICH I have already ordered as my

    swimwear f or t his year, so as to not

    repeat t he cartoon-print heartbreak

    of my last f atshion post. Heres

    hoping the rose suit is lined enough

    that transparency is not a problem.

    SPEAKING OF SWIMDRESSES:

    I know. I can sense your horror. But

    WAIT: ask yourself , is this s uit

    ACTUALLY horrif ying, o r are the

    narrow limitations imposed upon

    your mind by an awesomeness-

    oppressive culture only making you

    THINK it is horrif ying? Because I

    think it is GREAT and also t hat I ama STYLE GENUIS for thinking so.

    You have to admire it. This is a suit

    that leaves no sto ne unturned -- a

    one-shouldered leopard-print

    flowered bandeau sheath shirred

    has no reviews, probably because

    everyone whos bought it has t ried it

    on and been immediately assumed

    into the special FABULOUS HEAVEN.

    SPEAKING OF ONE-SHOULDERED

    SUITS:

    Big ups to f atshion bloggerAmanda of Fashion Love and

    Martinis f or buying this ombre one-

    shoulder tank hotness and putt ing it

    on Instagram so I knew it existed. I

    am not usually an ombre f an but f or

    some reason I really love this suit --

    I just wish it wasnt a one-shoulder

    deal because I always f eel weirdly

    of f -balance in them. Like I'm carrying

    an invisible messenger bag that isf illed with my whole body.

    Right now youre probably thinking

    DUDE WHERE ARE THE BIKINIS?

    OKAY IM DOING IT.

    Monif C kills at swimwear every

    f reaking year and this year is no

    exception. Her s tylized-peacock-

    print bikini separates come in

    orange and turquoise and arecurrently on sale, so if youre f ence

    sitting, you might want to move f ast

    before they sell out. The halter tops

    and high-waistedbottoms are sold

    separately so you can get a

    gorgeous f it.

    And bonus? THAT TOP HAS AN

    Monif C Sao Paulo Swim Separate s, in size s 16W to 24W

    like a bra, so o stensibly if you know

    youre down with a certain Lane

    Bryant bra size then getting one of

    these to f it should be an easy

    effort.

    I know not all of you are on the

    f atkini train, and Im here to assure

    you that s T OTALLY OK. Maybe youneed an interval suit to get there, or

    maybe youre just more a tankini

    person. I spent a couple summers

    trying to be a tankini person myself

    -- mos tly because they seem like

    theyd be easier to go f or a pee in --

    but I never could quite get there.

    Maybe its my long and f leshy torso

    but I was yanking that shit down ALL

    DAY LONG like f reaking Captain

    Picard.

    Nevertheless, I have shopped for

    tankinis f or you EVEN THOUGH I

    WILL NEVER WEAR ONE. Like this

    vintage-y, only-slightly-grandma-ish

    floral tankini top from Lands End:

    Okay, so it's sorta reminiscent o f a

    bedspread, but I like the

    uxtapos ition. On the other hand, it

    has an underwire in it! And given that

    Lands End legitimately makes t he

    best swimwear in the universe this

    is a prett y sure bet. Many of my

    Gab iFresh for s 4a Yog a Bikini, $68, in sizes 10-24

    f avorite suits over the years in

    terms o f f it have come f rom Lands

    End -- I just wish their suits were,

    yknow, cuter? A litt le more diverse in

    st yle? And generally more

    obnoxious?

    Torrid has a couple of more trendy

    tankini options as well, like this

    obligatory but nevertheless

    adorable cherry-print keyhole top:

    Or this pink mesh top, which needs

    to GET OUT with that ruf f le:

    And a variety of bot toms to pair

    them with. Heh, bot toms.

    For t he old-f ashioned tank-lovers

    among us, finding a non-fumpy

    one-piece suit is almost as hard as

    finding a swimdress that doesnt

    suck (hey does anyone remember

    SPARKLEBOOBS?). But a little-

    known FASHION SECRET is that

    you can put polka dots on pretty

    much anything and I will instantly

    want t o wear it. WITNESS:

    Exhibit A:ASOS red and white po lka

    dot wide-st rap belted tank. In any

    other print t his s tyle would look

    to tally unappealing to me, but thepolka dots make it.

    Exhibit B: This navy polka-dot ted

    ruched tank. I know navy is like

    barely a step up f rom black so f ar

    as swimsuit colors are concerned,

    and I vowed years ago never to buy

    another black swimsuit. But I still

    Joe Browns Striped Bikini Set, $58, in sizes 8 to 28

    Exhibit C: THIS WILL NEVER FIT ME

    because it's junior plus sized, but it

    is seriously so freaking adorable.

    Somebody else should buy it. It's

    pretty cheap too .

    At t his po int I am pret ty sure t hat

    Ive included just about every cuteplus size swimsuit on THE WHOLE

    INTERNET. Im actually sick o f

    looking at them, which I wouldnt

    have thought possible. What do you

    think? Do you like any of them?

    Have I lost my mind? Also why am I

    so inexplicably drawn to one-

    shouldered suits right now? Tell me

    all your swimwear-related hopes

    and dreams in comments.

    Special note to those who wear

    extended sizes, A.K.A. greatbigfats!

    Several of the above suits go up to a

    26 or 28, but if you need bigger,

    allow me to point you atLove Your

    Peaches, which makes gorgeous

    swimwear up to a 6x, and also back

    to Swimwear For Allagain, which has

    suits up to a 34 and can be sorted

    by size.
