Little Black Maillot
I don’t know about you but I cannot live without the perfect black maillot. To me, it’s equivalent to the little black dress…a timeless, versatile and universally flattering staple. Instantly slimming and perpetually chic, this piece will always be fool proof. While I love a good bargain, I’m a firm believer that when it comes to swim suits, quality and fit are the top priorities. So, I don’t mind splurging on one every few years. Recently, I’ve been wearing a J.Crew version which I love but truthfully, I’m growing a bit restless and I’m currently feeling the need to switch things up. I’ve had my eye on this Tory Burch one shoulder number for quite some time as well as the high neck style by Muryx (I mean, have you seen the back? To.Die.For) . I’m curious….are you a fan of the black maillot? If so, which style would you choose?

Yes I am a fan. I love ruching, as it is so forgiving, so 2 is probably my favourite. That said my eye is also drawn to 4…impeccably chic!

Absolutely love these suits- so chic! I’m over the bikini…a deep plunge and high-cut thigh is where it’s at!

I love these black maillots! I have never been able to wear one pieces because they never fit, but if I could, I would pick #2. It has such gorgeous classic lines and I love the cross cross back!

Hi, I’m new to your blog and I love it. I love a good maillot, black or otherwise. Out of your choices above, I love number 2, the Seafolly one. Keep up the great blog.

I’m totally with you on the classic black one piece…every girl needs one! I have a favorite halter style that I got at Old Navy years back and it’s great! This year I got a b+w striped retro one piece from Mod Cloth, breaking out of my comfort zone!

What pretty suits!! Not sure I could pull it off because I’m so pale. Maybe a navy one for me?! hehe. Great finds!
