Five Friday Favorites – Affordable Bathing Suits from Amazon

Lifestyle· Self Love

24 Jul

The summer heat is raging.  It’s been well into the 90s for weeks now and we’ve definitely been feeling the heat in our old house.  B and I have been joking about putting a pool in instead of some other things we’ve got going on but we continue to hold out.  We’ve been fortunate enough to spend some time out on the boat which is almost better than a pool if you ask me.

All this summer heat and joking about pools got me thinking about bathing suits.  It’s hard to find bathing suits that cover enough while still looking cute that are also comfortable and quality.  My curves also mean finding suits that fit everywhere is difficult too.

A couple years ago when we started planning multiple trips to DE with the boat each summer, I knew it was time to find some bathing suits that could hold up to more than just sunbathing on the beach or around a pool.  I needed suits that were comfortable, covered enough that I wasn’t hanging out everywhere and that held up to being fairly active on the boat.

Well today I’m sharing a few of my favorite (and affordable) bathing suits that I found on Amazon; ones I actually wear and a few I have my eye on.  Here’s my five friday favorites:

All opinions are my own and I thank you for supporting the products and brands that support my blog.

Option 1:  Navy Blue Handkerchief print 

True to size.  Because I have a larger chest and bum, I ordered one size larger than I’d normally wear and I didn’t need to.  

Option 2:  Gray and Pink Two Piece Tankini: 

 Like the navy blue one, I sized up one and I would not have needed to.  Take note that this suit is sold as separates where the others are sold together.

Find the top here.

Find the bottoms here.

Option 3:  Tankinki – my favorite

This affordable bathing suit is my favorite and is definitely true to size.  I like it because I can throw on a pair of shorts with it and feel comfortable running errands in it and not necessarily look like I’m wearing a bathing suit. I get compliments when I wear it all the time and people are shocked that it was less than $40 for both pieces.  

Options 4 and 5:  Two options I have my eye on:

You can find bathing suit 4 here.

You can find bathing suit 5 here.

Similar to the first two, these are sold as the full suit.  The styles are similar so if I try either of these, I will order my usual size instead of sizing up.

Have you found any great bathing suits this summer on Amazon that you love?

5 Ways to Transition Your Decor from Fall to Christmas (Without Feeling Rushed)

There’s something about a cottage-inspired home that instantly feels welcoming. Maybe it’s the layers of soft fabrics, the warm glow of a lamp in the corner, or the way everyday items are displayed with charm. To me, “cozy” doesn’t mean cluttered — it means creating a space where you can truly relax and enjoy the simple beauty of home. Over the years, I’ve discovered a few essentials that always make our home feel inviting and comfortable. These cozy touches are timeless, affordable, and easy to add no matter the size or style of your home. 🛋️ Soft Layers & Textiles Nothing says cozy like a stack of pillows and a throw draped over the sofa. I love mixing neutral tones with subtle patterns — florals, stripes, or checks — to create that layered, collected look. In bedrooms, a quilt or coverlet at the foot of the bed adds both charm and warmth. Image Suggestion: Wide shot of your living room sofa with throws and pillows layered. Pin-worthy vertical image. 🕯️ Warm Lighting Overhead lighting can feel harsh, so I rely on lamps, sconces, and even candles to create a warm glow. A cottage-inspired home shines with layered lighting — the soft glow of a lamp in the evening makes a room instantly more inviting. Image Suggestion: Close-up of a side table with a lamp, book stack, and candle burning. 🌿 Natural Elements Fresh flowers in simple vases, a basket by the door, a vintage wooden bowl — natural elements bring warmth and texture to a cottage home. Even faux greenery works if you mix it thoughtfully. Image Suggestion: Seasonal arrangement on your entryway table or kitchen counter (sunflowers, hydrangeas, or eucalyptus in fall). 📚 Personal Touches Books, artwork, and vintage finds tell your story. A stack of well-loved novels, a thrifted oil painting, or a collection of blue-and-white dishes make a space feel lived in and personal. Cozy isn’t about buying new — it’s about surrounding yourself with what you love. Image Suggestion: Styled bookcase or coffee table vignette with books + art + personal accents. 🧺 Comfort Underfoot Rugs are one of the easiest ways to add coziness to a room. I love mixing a natural jute or sisal rug with a smaller patterned rug layered on top. It adds instant warmth and that collected, cottage feel. Image Suggestion: Angle of your living room or bedroom showing layered rugs. 🍵 Kitchen Comforts A cozy home isn’t complete without the kitchen. For me, it’s having a favorite mug for my morning coffee, simple linen towels, and a candle flickering while I cook dinner. These small details make the everyday feel special. Image Suggestion: Coffee setup with mugs + candle + linen towel. Conclusion At the end of the day, creating a cozy cottage-inspired home isn’t about following strict rules. It’s about layering soft textures, adding warm light, and filling your rooms with pieces that feel personal and meaningful. These cozy essentials are what make our house feel like home — and I hope they inspire you to create the same in your space.
