Studio Finds

Nope. Not yet. Or maybe just never?

That’s how I feel whenever someone mentions “bikini season”.

So much has to happen first, like getting the perfect abs, tanning, making a routine of shaving my legs…
(Current routine: zero.)

The winter was so long, I never thought it would end, and now summer is just here.
So, I’ve been scrambling to shave, tan and do at least five sit-ups every damn day. Oh, and get a new swimsuit.
But nothing – and I mean nada had been appealing to me. (I’m a tough critic since I grew up on the beach in Sydney and lived in a swimsuit.)

Then enter Ward Whillis. Basically the answer to my bikini prayers. Simple, thoughtful design that makes for chic (and still fun) swimwear. But the best part is that all of their swimsuits are reversible, so you basically get a two-for-one! Perfect for a weekend at the beach, right? And this bikini is my favorite… 

Do you stress over the idea of a new swimsuit? Or have you found one recently that you love?

Swimsuit, Ward Whillas.

  • I have a favorite from last year I only used once – I work way too much! (Maybe luckily!)

  • For years I thought I should go the string bikini route—less material=less squeezing, right? Really, really not true, at least not for me. Finally, this year, I ordered hipster bottoms and a French bikini top in bright turquoise from J. Crew and everything fits and I feel amazing. Lesson, as always: you do you.

    Thanks for the intro to Ward Whillas, Neada—what a cool brand!

  • I confess that I too detest sporting a swimsuit and am secretly hoping for it to be fashionable (and feasible) to wear a tracksuit into the water. Until then, it’s a one piece with as much coverage as possible to hide the jiggly bits. This Ward Whillas is a beauty though…I’ll wear it my next life when I am fit and firm…

    370 $ ?!
    I just bought a nearly identical model- black retro bra and mini bottoms in H&M. Both for 10 euros. Enough for those 14 days, that I will be wearing them …..

  • Ah this is lovely but I can’t wear a matched set size wise–I’m a 34C on top and while I wear dresses no problem e.g. 1 size always fits me top and bottom for a piece of cltohing, for my bikini top I always need a medium and for my bikini bottom always an XS. I get so disappointed when a suit I love is sold as a set and not in separate pieces–they would get more customers if they sold top and bottom separately!
