Promising review: "Loved this suit! I went to Mexico on vacation and was concerned with getting too much sun. The top was perfect and I was expecting to hate the bottoms but they fit and looked great for my frame! Not only was this functional but super cute and I received a lot of compliments. I also did not get sunburned laying on the beach all day." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I bought this dress on a whim and was a little skeptical about it, but I have never received so many compliments on a dress before! I wore it on a trip, and I honestly couldn't get through a day without someone stopping me every few minutes to ask where I got my dress or to tell me how gorgeous it was. It flowed beautifully on that windy day. I'm so obsessed with it, I even bought two more in different colors. I highly recommend!!!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This is the perfect blanket. The size is big enough for two adults and two kids to fit on for sure. It is waterproof and sand proof. We use this a lot whenever we go to parks.

Promising review: "I bought this for a beach trip, I hate sand but love the beach. This blanket is large enough for our beach bags, a cooler, my husband and I to lay, and plenty of room to spare! He stayed on his side, I stayed on mine and sand never touched my body! If any sand happened to get on my side, I just lifted the corner and let it fall off. Amazing!" —Janna23

Promising review: "Very lightweight and flowy fabric, kind of like a light gauze. It looks great worn down and tied up in the front as in some of the pics. These have NO stretch, so make sure to get a size that's quite roomy. I absolutely love this shirt; I have it in three colors." —Customer

Promising review: "I really like this bathing suit. It's well-made, thick, and very soft. The bottom does not slip and slide, but it is on the cheekier side. Because it's high-waisted, it accentuates me in all the right places. I would recommend this bathing suit; it's my favorite one I’ve ordered off of Amazon. Just bought one in another color." —peyton

Promising review: "I’ve lived in Florida for 22 years and have spent too much time and money on bags that didn’t offer half of what this one does. I love all the outside pockets and large inner zippered pocket (holds car keys, two cell phones, pool/beach pass, hair ties, and money). It’s lightweight, very roomy, and so far seems well made. It’s been to the beach four times now and carried four beach towels, sunblock, reading materials, hats, lunch, etc. with room to spare. No more digging for items on the bottom of a heavy, sandy bag." —Beach Bum

Promising review: "Finding long board shorts that fit and are actually comfortable has been a huge challenge, but these shorts are amazing. They're super lightweight and cool but not clingy, and the fabric is stretchy so they don’t dig in when you sit in your beach chair. So I immediately bought a second pair in a different color. I’m even considering wearing them off the beach as well." —merrimac83

Promising review: "OBSESSED! I cannot say enough good things about Wild Isles! I bought this suit on a whim and OH MY GOSH it is incredible. I honestly don't think I've ever felt comfortable or sexy in a swimsuit, but this one did the impossible! It is amazing quality, sexy, but still modest. It holds the girls in and feels like I could jump around and do flips without the dreaded "nip slip". Wild Isles, you guys totally know what you are doing!" —Madeline

I carry most of my weight in my stomach and boobs, and I normally stick with black bottoms, but I’m so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone. This is the first time I’ve written a review on Amazon, that’s how much I love this! I just bought it in another color!" —Christiana

Promising review: "These were perfect for my trip to Kauai. The beach we were near had hidden rocks in the sand — big volcanic rocks that hurt to step on, except for me in my fancy shoes. I wore them almost constantly for a week and they held up great under all kinds of stress. I'd totally buy them again. I only wish I had ordered them for everyone in my group." —The Vincents
