SWIMSUITS FOR WOMEN OVER 40

Hi friends! This may be my first post dedicated to women over 40 and I’m hoping that it serves a helpful guide or resource when shopping for swimsuits. Searching for the right swimsuit to wear for women over 40 can be somewhat challenging and at times no fun at all. I have to admit that in recent years, it’s been a sore spot for me. I’ve even tried to avoid shopping for swimsuits in the past until I lost weight this year. Now, I had to buy new swimsuits that fit. So what was I looking for this year when purchasing a new swimsuit? A swimsuit that’s stylish and supports the girls.

Why Specifically Swimsuits For Women Over 40?

As I said before, it can be challenging finding a swimsuit that makes you feel confident by offering enough support and coverage. Many women in their 40’s can wear whatever they want, however, there are some women, myself included, who need that extra support which is not always available in the style we’re looking for. I searched high and low to share the perfect swimsuits that are super stylish and modern. Swimsuits that will stand out in a crowd and help you look beautiful and feel confident while lounging by the pool or at the beach. Some of these swimsuits are also perfect for women with a small bust and all of them have free shipping!

What These Suits Have

I also made it a point to look for swimsuits that are lined and have removable pads. In shopping for swimsuits this summer, I realized that these key factors were something I reached for again and again when picking out the swimsuits I wore this season. Many women love solid color swimsuits as well as light and bright prints, so I made sure to include swimsuits in that category as well. I added black swimsuits here, because wearing black tends to create a slimming effect.

The Selection

I tried to choose swimsuits that are not going to age us. I chose swimsuits that will make us feel young and vibrant. Sometimes super supportive swimsuits with lots of thick fabric can make us feel and look older. If you are like me, I don’t mind looking my age, but I do not want to look older. I still want to wear a swimsuit that’s flattering and lightweight.

Below, I linked all the swimsuits that are featured above and why I love them and think they are perfect for women over 40. Each style is unique and offers a style sense that if perfect for a fun day in the sun. Whether you are on vacation or hanging out in your backyard pool. Just add water!
