Whether swimsuit season makes you laugh or cry (I’m still hovering between both), it’s on the horizon. And with Memorial Day Weekend just 4 weeks away (the official start of Summer, right?), retailers like Target are already working to entice us with deals on swimwear. Whatever your current stage of motherhood is, we’ve spotted a few swimsuits just for you.
Also best news ever: All women’s swimsuits are 30% off at Target this week only!
Here is the perfect swimsuit for your current state of motherhood, thanks to Target…
1. Nursing mom?
We’ve been there: You need a swimsuit that prevents leaks from getting out, but also available for easy access when the time comes. Here are a few finds:
Ruffle shoulder ruched one piece by Kona Sol
Floral short sleeve zipper front by Cupshe
Lightly lined twisted strap bikini by Shade & Shore - we love the absorbent lining for catching light leaks
2. Postpartum mom?
90% of the postpartum mamas we surveyed said a) the'y’d never step foot in a swimsuit again, and then after getting over the shock it might happen, b) said they preferred something with a little front ruching as they heal. We feel that. A few finds:
Neck halter one piece by Kona Sol
Cupshe backless ruched one piece (comes in many sizes and colors!)
Sweetheart neck ombre one piece by Shape + style
3. Toddler mom?
Prep your Summer for a lot of dashing around the pool and/or beach, and you’ll want a suit you can move in. A tankini for the toddler mom might be a safe bet for you, but we here are a few options:
Leopard print keyhole tankini by Kona Sol
Striped twist top bikini by Kona Sol (soooo cute IRL!)
One shoulder tankini by Shade & Shore
4. Carpool queen mom?
Your Summer is already scheduled to the max and your swimsuit ‘fit needs to be flexible from able-to-handle-errands to perfect-for-pool-date. Ideas for you:
Bandeau full coverage from Kona Sol - toss on a light, flowy skirt over top?
V-neck ruffle sleeve by Cupshe - maybe with jean shorts and a Bogg bag
5. No worries mom?
Perhaps your kids are older - or just more self-sufficient at the pool? - and you’re poised for a Summer of reading and relaxing. Go you. You might love these:
