Hi there! Happy Monday!
Have you tried a bodysuit yet? Are you wondering if you should? If you would like it? Or why you might want to try them? I still vividly remember in 2009 seeing one come through the stockroom at Hollister and being confused as to why a leotard was in the boxes, but jokes on me because I love them. I’ve been wearing bodysuits regularly for a few years now, and today I want to share my favorites with you.
Why I Love Bodysuits
Bodysuits are awesome because they don’t crease if you wear them under blazers or jackets as a tank or t-shirt would, and you don’t have to constantly tuck them in. Yes, it’s true that it does take a bit longer to use the bathroom but I find the tradeoff worth it. I prefer thong bodysuits, which all but one I have tried have been and I think is more common than a cheeky-cut.
My Favorite Bodysuits
I have several bodysuits from Abercrombie, one from Hollister, one from Express, and one from Target. My favorite brand for bodysuits that I have tried is hands-down Abercrombie.
The Best Abercrombie and Fitch Bodysuits
Seamless Rib Fabric Scoopneck Bodysuit in Orange
If you’re only going to get one bodysuit, this is my favorite. I love that it is ribbed because the seamless bodysuits (which I will talk about in a minute) are stunning but the rib is less likely to pill or snag. I got the orange color, which is a beautiful light and I am a neutral gal who thinks that this passes as a neutral.
Double-Layered Seamless Fabric Square Neck Bodysuit
The double-layered seamless bodysuits are incredible. They are so smooth, they hold you in, and I don’t need to wear a bra with them. I do wear nipple covers. I do wash these on delicate in a laundry bag and hang them to dry because I do find them more likely to pill.
Double-Layered Seamless Fabric Corset Bodysuit
One-Shoulder Essential Bodysuit in Brown
I am *here* for the one-shoulder making a comeback (Shoutout to my mom for letting me wear these at 14 which I absolutely rocked to school with a zip-up track jacket over it). This bodysuit is not double-lined, hence the lower price (compared to other Abercrombie bodysuits). I wear it with the best strapless bra ever by Soma.
Long-Sleeve Seamless Mockneck Bodysuit
This is on clearance and in limited sizes but there are other similar ones on their website. It is PERFECT under blazers, and cardigans.
The Best Basic Bodysuit from Express
Body Contour Scoop Neck Bodysuit
If you need one bodysuit that can be worn alone, as a layer, dressed up, and dressed down this is it. It’s beautiful, holds you in while still being comfortable, and comes in so many color ways.
The Best Affordable Bodysuit from Target
If you’re on a budget but want to see if you like the look of a bodysuit, I suggest this one. It doesn’t suck you in as much as the pricier options, but it still offers other benefits of the bodysuit such as avoiding the need to tuck in or flatten out fabric wrinkles. This is a bikini cut bodysuit, and while I prefer a thong cut this isn’t uncomfortable to wear. I love the line A New Day from Target for basic tanks and this bodysuit is no exception.
