Fun in the Sun #9: Hapari Swimwear {$96 Gift Certificate Giveaway}

{This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations, Tiffany LaCourse!}

When it comes to summer, one item of clothing that we just can't ignore is swimwear.

Unless you happen to be a supermodel, swimsuit shopping most likely isn't on your list of Top 10 Enjoyable Things, as everything from the lighting to the non-flattering options found in stores have the ability to send anyone's self esteem plummeting.

Seeing as my body has changed drastically in the years since having children, I'm extremely picky about the swimwear that I choose, as I want it to be just the right combination of style and looks while still keeping me covered... and hopefully with at least a small amount of confidence left.

Fortunately, this summer I was introduced to Hapari.com and their unique selection of flattering and stylish swimsuits for women of all shapes and sizes who want to hit the beach or pool in a trendy, fashionable way.

On a mission to allow every woman to feel beautiful and confident in a swimsuit, Hapari designs their swimwear to enhance the curves you love and hide the curves you don't. And, while you're feeling good about yourself, they also offer swimwear for girls, boys, and men as well, so the entire family can enjoy fun in the sun with Hapari!

There have been times in the past when I browsed online swimwear sites and felt as though they were aimed at one particular style. However, at Hapari I was immediately impressed with the extensive collection of patterns, colors, and designs of high quality swimsuits for everyone.

I was drawn right away to their tankini swimwear and the ability to keep things fashionable while still being modestly covered (a must-have when you're running around with kids). Even better, Hapari's swimsuits are extremely versatile, giving you the ability to wear many of their tankini tops as a halter, crisscross or tank style:

Or, if you prefer a little more or a little less coverage, Hapari offers a great selection of colorful bikinis to show off your body or classic one-piece swimsuits to keep a little bit more hidden:

As well as the colorful tops offered, one of my favorite aspects about Hapari is the ability to mix and match the various types of bottoms that they sell. Not only do you get a custom fit, but you can choose between regular, Tummy Tuk (higher waist) or Hot Short bottoms...

...and then complete your swimwear look with a Swim Skirt, Straight Skirt, Swimwear Skirt or Shorts!

When it comes to swimwear, I appreciate any company that makes it possible to personalize your purchase to ensure the most flattering and comfortable result. With sizes available from small up to plus sized, your next vacation or poolside adventure is sure to be improved with Hapari's modest swimwear and figure-enhancing looks.

And, thanks to their generosity, one person will be able to look and feel great this summer in a high quality swimsuit, because...

One lucky person will win a $96 gift certificate to Hapari!
