Does Trying On A Swimsuit Make You Cringe? If So, Read This.

Does trying on a swimsuit make YOU cringe?  Just the thought of it makes me uneasy.  Finding a flattering swimsuit, is probably the most angst-ridden wardrobe challenge.  Dresses? no problem. Jeans? I’m confident, I’ll find something.  Swimsuit? Oh dear…  If you’re like me (and most women), you probably feel just as nervous and insecure about the prospect of hunting down that swimsuit.  And post-motherhood and entering my 40s has not helped the situation.  Anyone else relate when I scream out of the dressing room, “caftan please?!!”  If so, let me introduce you to a recent fab find – Amoressa Swimwear!

I was recently asked to be one of the influencers to travel with Amoressa to Cancun – see more about the trip and our fabulous hotel here.   And that is how I was first introduced to the swimwear line  Sponsored blogger getaway?  How could I not immediately respond, “YES!” (even if that meant I’d have to gulp down my fear of photographing myself in a bathing suit while there..)  You see, the reason I had never heard of Amoressa before was because I never cared to look at brands outside of the $70 and under category.  I frankly didn’t want to put money into something I felt would ultimately not make me feel so great.  And THEN, Amoressa sent me a couple of styles.  And just like that with the first try – on, I became a convert.  Suddenly, the thought of wearing the swimsuit wasn’t so scary, and suddenly, I had a change of heart!  “Okay…I can do this!”

It may sound silly, but the simple upgrade from cheaper swimsuit to a premium one made all the difference.  And it was all thanks to Amoressa’s quality and magical Lycra powers.  I say magical, because it really changed my whole attitude towards swimsuits and my level of confidence approaching this project.  You know the difference between wearing a body-hugging dress with and then without the help of Spanx?  That little bit of shaping changes everything, right?  Just like that, this swimsuit, managed to smooth everything out, hold me in and give me shape without being too restrictive.

Upon doing some research, I learned that Amoressa’s brand fell under the umbrella brand of MiracleSuits.   You’ve all heard of them, right?  Look like you’ve lost 10lbs in 10 seconds?  Oh my God that statement is for real, folks!  Their bathing suits slim!  Hallelujah!!  I wish a friend had told me this before! So here I am telling YOU!  Here is a shot of all of us influencers in the various lines of swimsuits MiracleSuit owns.  Just look how comfortable and confident everyone looks and feels!  It is so flattering on all body shapes.  And that is what is so amazing about it!

SO worth the investment, this Amoressa line is MiracleSuit’s sexier, sleek line with great styles, colors and patterns to choose from.  I encourage you to check out MiracleSuit’s whole collection here.

Do you appreciate clean, simple and chic lines?  If so, you’ll really love Amoressa!  They’ll be having you say “beach please” too!!

5 Reasons To Vaca At Seadust Cancun

Background

I’ve been a mom for 6 years and have only gone away on my own for a girls’ trip once and that was thanks to MomTrends who asked me to be one of the selected bloggers to participate in the sponsored Manchester outlet trip (recapped here). My husband had to let me take off for an all-expense, paid trip, right?  (Anyone else also have to appeal to the bargain-hunting side of their significant other to get what they want?)  A girls’ getaway is what every mom needs and deserves.  So when MomTrends once again, gave me the opportunity to do another sponsored trip, this time to Cancun and to kickoff Mother’s day week, I couldn’t pass it up.  I had been to Cancun once before, but never with a team of influencers and never to this all-inclusive, family resort, Seadust Cancun.   It was an amazing trip and I’m happy to share my 5 reasons I think you too must check out Seadust Cancun!

1).  It’s All-Inclusive! 
All-inclusive vacations remove vacation planning stress by offering a packaged deal that contains most of what you need for a relaxing vacation (for a set per-person fee).  Have you ever tried one?  Never worry about losing your wallet on the beach, having enough change, or ordering that extra drink!  It’s ALL-INCLUDED, people!  Yes, even all the domestic and imported beverages are included.  Can anyone say, “2nd rounds, please?!”  This new way of living will have you feeling like a millionaire without a care in the world. Seriously.  Top this no-payment system off with their trademark, service, and you’ll never want to leave this doting resort!  Oh how hard it is to go back to reality and have to nickel and dime every little thing lol!

2).  It’s JUST 15 minutes from the Cancun airport!

You know how you travel for hours internationally and cannot wait to dump your bags and stretch your legs in your hotel room?  Remember how it feels to land only to realize that you still have to hunt down and wait for the correct train, find a taxi AND wait an additional 2 more hours to get to your destination?  Vacation buzz killer, right? Not here.  With Seadust Cancun, you’re only a 10-15 minute drive from your beachfront hotel.  AHH now THAT’s a vacation!

Families will really appreciate this close proximity!!  Cut the time you have to field those annoying “are we there yet” questions, cuz boom.  You’re off the plane and you’re there! Easy peasy…now THAT’s PRICELESS!

3).  Beautiful Views and beachfront property

Just look at these pictures.  Need I say more?  One of the main attractions Cancun has to offer is its brilliant Caribbean water and this hotel allows for full enjoyment of it.  This property is right on the beach!!  My mouth dropped the minute I walked into my oceanfront room.  The supersized patio (which included an outdoor whirlpool bath) overlooked the pool, the beach, the water activities and endless crystal waters.  I couldn’t take my eyes off this spectacular view..even the jaded traveler in me was impressed!  The view was also shared by the pools, the outdoor bar, and many restaurants on premise.  Our room felt enormous given the NY standards I’m used to, and I appreciated the giant bathroom, dressing area, wardrobe and vanity.  It was just me in there but it felt so luxurious being able to spread out and feel like a queen!   We took a tour of their hotel and learned that families can opt to have a bunk bed setup situated to fit an additional 3 kids with the parents in an adjacent room and bed!  This is a huge plus for larger families!

4).  Tons of delicious on-site dining

One of the greatest pleasures of being on vacation is exploring the food options, isn’t it (cuz calories don’t count on vacation, right??).  And Seadust Cancun does not disappoint!  With 11 restaurants and 10 bars on site, you might not even be able to eat your way through the whole hotel.  We tried the Food Gallery, Le Maison Du Michelle, Atlantis, and El Maguey and enjoyed everything.

Selection and service were fantastic, atmosphere varied, and the food was yummy!  They even had the most memorable, Instagram-able desserts!  Now you see how they won me over, right?

5).  Lots of family fun! 

When not busy trying to devour all the tasty temptations in sight, you’ll have plenty of activities to work it off or unwind and simply relax (like I wanted to do!).  The fitness minded, will enjoy the modern gym, zip-lining, water aerobics, mini-golf, the rock-climbing wall, tennis courts and water park options.  (Yes, there’s actually a water park on premises!!)

For those looking to unwind, the spa, sauna, steam room AND baby, kids or teen club await you!! (Yes, you can drop off your kids all the way through 11pm if you like!)  Now THAT’s a vacation!

Pin the opening image and save it to your travel files, cuz trust me, this is a place that you AND your family will enjoy!
