We'd never say "i told you so", but remember last season we wrote a blog about rash guards? you don't? let us refresh your memory (aka, I TOLD YOU SO!)
Looks like they are back this year and with so much more variety than before. A rash guard not only makes you look athletic and cool, it leaves something to the imagination while ensuring that you don’t look like this in 25 years.
So play it safe and cover up. If you didn’t get in on the trend last year, it’s definitely not too late this year. We totally get that it’s not for every body type, but don’t be scared off by the super skinny models – we tried all of these on and they were surprisingly flattering on all of us (our bodies range from “The Kate Moss” to “The Pregnant Lady” (note: if you’re currently “The Pregnant Lady” the only rash guard that will not make you look like ten pounds of sugar in a five pound sack is a cropped Rash Guard. We recommend one for you below) Give it a try!
We promise this is our last post on rash guards. Until next summer. We think this trend is here to stay.
The 6 below are our absolute favorites.
