beat the heat in style:YOUR GUIDE TO SUSTAINABLE SWIM trunks
No matter the weather, every season offers its own way to shop sustainably. Summer is no exception. Whether you’re hitting the beach, lounging by the pool, or tanning on a NYC balcony (like us), you’re sure to need pieces to help you stay and look cool. This summer, let’s all vow to buy pieces that not only make us look good, but feel good!
Here are a few tips for selecting the right swim trunks:
Make sure they hit above the knee. Never go longer! You can go for a higher cut depending on your body type and confidence!
Look for a tapered style that fits your body. Don’t go for boxy or over-sized.
Have fun and play with bright colors and prints.
