Sofía Vergara’s Sexy Swimsuit Featured This Ultra-Flattering, Plunging Detail

I’m headed to the Southern California desert this weekend to celebrate my bestie’s bachelorette party (someone queue Man! I Feel Like a Woman!). Temperatures are predicted to reach a sweltering 105 degrees, so it’s only natural for me to fantasize about taking a dip in the pool. Though, a below-average bikini just won’t do—and luckily for me, I stumbled upon a recent Sofía Vergara Instagram post that solidified my swimsuit dreams.

Vergara rarely shies away from a good swimsuit moment, calling on sexy numbers to enhance her summers—and her latest one-piece didn’t disappoint. She wore a nearly sold-out swimmie from her self named label, Sofia by Sofía Vergara, including a super sexy detail: a plunging, lace-up front.

I’m no stranger to this ultra-flattering look, as my mom has been rocking the criss-cross style for years; what can I say? She’s not like a regular mom, she’s a cool mom. Better yet, I recently snagged my own version, falling in love with the security the strappy design offers. Whether you have a larger or smaller chest, you’ll stay in place all day without fear of something accidentally popping out, which is essential for summer activities like beach volleyball, wave diving, and waterslide riding.

If you opt for a self-tying option like Vergara, the look is surprisingly customizable as well. Pull the strings tight for a cinching effect that creates an hourglass figure and lifts the bust, or leave them relaxed for an open, skin-baring style

Those who prefer a modest option but still want something a bit risqué will be pleased with this look, too. While most picks include an open back (similar to this ribbed Becca find) the stomach and booty regions are well concealed, making it a great choice for family trips and romantic getaways alike. Not to mention, the covered one-piece looks great with shorts, sarongs, and knit cover ups, never leaving you feeling overexposed.

Be prepared for all of your summer gatherings (Fourth of July pool party, anyone?) by shopping for a sexy lace-up swimsuit or two, below. Don’t be surprised if friends start asking to twin with you
