The Best Aerie Bathing Suits

This post may contain affiliate links. Purchasing through them helps support this website. This post may also contain items gifted for consideration.

On the hunt for the best Aerie Bathing Suits? These Aerie one piece bathing suits (and a couple two pieces) will totally flatter a pear shaped body and they’re an amazing price! Looking for Aerie Bathing Suits? This two piece swim suit has great support and is super flatter on a pear shaped body!

Am I the only one who is totally obsessed with Aerie? Their messaging about real beauty, their decision as a company to not airbrush their models, their use of a variety of body types and skin tones in every ad campaign? Yup, I love it.  And bonus? They make affordable items that actually flatter women with curves (especially us pear shaped ladies).  Aerie one piece bathing suits are some of my favorites, and this year I even grabbed a two piece to try out.  I wanted to share my picks from their current swim collection…..plus a few bonus items that I’m so glad I snagged.

The Best Aerie Bathing Suits (plus a few more items you need to own)

A few tips for any bathing suits for a PEAR SHAPED BODY:

  • you want to draw the eyes towards your narrow upper body….a great neckline, a brighter or lighter color on top, and embellishments will do this perfectly
  • find pieces that fit well and flatter your curves, you want to accentuate that small waist and midsection instead of hiding your body
  • try different fabrics and patterns to see what feels best to you, I’m a fan of bright colors and stripes…..but you may like something different with your skin tone

Shop all Aerie Bathing Suits:

Looking for great Aerie bathing suits? This color blocked bathing suit is absolutely ADORABLE and super flattering!

AERIE PLUNGE COLOR BLOCK ONE PIECE SWIMSUIT (size large): You guys have seen this suit a TON….I bought it a couple months ago.  It’s honestly PERFECT for a pear shape.  I love that it’s darker on the bottom, and draws the eyes upward.  It has built in cups and great support.  This may be my favorite of all my Aerie one piece bathing suits.

On the hunt for a striped bathing suit? This is adorable! // Aerie Bathing Suits

AERIE “THE ONE” PIECE RACERBACK SWIMSUIT (size large): I own this suit in both a striped version and a solid blue one.  I love the stripes, the colors are super vibrant and fun.  It’s definitely a little higher cut, and this is an unlined suit.

Looking for Aerie Bathing Suits? This two piece swim suit has great support and is super flatter on a pear shaped body!

AERIE LONGLINE BANDEAU BIKINI TOP (size medium): Yes, I even tried a two piece this time!  And I have to say, I loved this cut.  The bandeau top offered great support with the straps, and the bottom was a way more flattering cut than I expected.  I even got a super cute matching kimono coverup  that I’ll get a TON of use out of this summer.  So yes ladies, wear the two piece!

Other Aerie Items:

While they aren’t bathing suits, there are a couple of other Aerie items that I absolutely LOVE. Looking for athleisure wear? These workout leggings are the BEST!

AERIE MOVE COLOR BLOCK 7/8 LEGGING (size large): These Aerie 7/8 leggings are my go to work out pants.  They’re comfortable, hold up REALLY well over time, and are perfectly high waisted.  As a pear shaped body type, one of my pet peeves is that my larger hips push down leggings as I run.  I HATE having to tug at my pants mid race as they slowly migrate south.  These? High waisted enough to stay in place.

Looking for athleisure wear? These workout leggings are the BEST!

AERIE CHILL HIGH WAISTED TIE DYE LEGGING (size large): These high waisted leggings are a softer fabric, and they’re perfect for travel days or lounging around the house.  I also love them for yoga or pilates classes.  They come in a ton of fun colors, and I just ordered them in a second color.  I wore them with a matching sports bra to an event recently and got a TON of compliments.

AERIE HAPPY CAMPER SWEATSHIRT (size medium): BEST sweatshirt ever.  This sweatshirt is super soft, comfy and the perfect length.

Have you tried any of these Aerie Bathing Suits? What are your favs?

📣What conversations with your kids are you gear 📣What conversations with your kids are you gearing up to have? 📣⠀
📣Let’s be honest......there are conversation topics that as parents we all know we need to bring up. From body changes to the birds and the bees to underage drinking.....as our kids get older, we’ve got a lot to tackle. And I get it, unless you happen to be a 15 years in the classroom teacher like me....this probably isn’t something you have experience with (plus, trust me....it’s a whole other ball game with your OWN kids). ⠀
⠀
📣I’m excited to team up with my friends at Responsibility.org to talk to YOU about having those talks with your family. This month is Alcohol Responsibility Month, and it’s the PERFECT time to start an ongoing dialog around underage drinking.⠀
⠀
📣 A few tips for having those ongoing conversations with your kids:⠀
⠀
📢Be human. It’s ok to not know all the answers. Your job? To lead with love and openness, and to use resources and experts to find the answers.⠀
⠀
📢Know that these are ongoing conversations. Hard topics aren’t a one and done type of dialog. As your children grow up, and have new experiences, you’ll have more conversations.⠀
⠀
📢Facts and Data are more effective than scare tactics. For discussions about Underage Drinking, I love Ask, Listen, Learn as a resource for parents and teachers. It addresses brain development, and has some REALLY cool videos and interactive tools for kids in grades 4-7.⠀
⠀
📣I’m sharing more tips and resources over on the blog today.

🌴These happy faces? Are because we spent the day lounging by the pool instead of hiding from loud machines.  If you follow along on our stories, you know that we came home from a trip to Bass Lake and Yosemite LAST week to…..WATER EVERYWHERE.  It’s all still being sorted out, but…..in the meantime there are some very big and loud machines starting the process of removing the water from our floors / cabinets and downstairs area. ⠀
⠀
🌴So when we had the chance to do a little staycation at the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach after our Touch of Disney day…….CLEARLY it was a YES.  This was my first time to this property, and it won’t be the last.  Three pools, super close to a ton of fun activities (18 miles from Disneyland, and an 8 minute drive from the Lido Marina Village), plus they’ve got a GREAT dinner option and a coffee shop in the morning.  This was JUST what we needed,  now I’m just busy plotting ways to stay longer.⠀
⠀
🌴Have you done an emergency home renovation? Did you stay? Because, I’m about to vote for us just taking up residence at the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach until all work is done.  You support this choice, right? ⠀
