Prepping for a much-needed beach trip this summer! A few of my favorite places to shop for affordable yet stylish swimwear are Old Navy (currently 40% off your order!), Target, and Victoria's Secret (also 40% off, and sadly this will be their last season offering swimsuits- better stock up). I can't justify splurging in designer pieces since we rarely get to soak up some sun. Not to mention, kids grow way too fast!

I've already grabbed a few things for the entire family since Old Navy's sale is just too good right now. Naturally, in a very neutral black, white and tan palette. While I've picked up this scalloped two-piece, I feel my best wearing the maillot version. I like being able to swim and play with Natalie without struggling to keep my top in place. I'll save the bikinis for when I tan or lounge by the water.
