Summer might be winding down, but there's still plenty of time to catch some rays (responsibly, of course!) and soak up the good vibes. This year, I wanted to make my beachwear choices count, not just for my look but for the planet too. That's why I was so excited to discover Berlook, a brand that's all about sustainable swimwear made with eco-conscious materials.
After drooling over Berlook's sustainable swimwear for what felt like forever and creating a mental wishlist a mile long, I finally took the plunge and ordered two pieces. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint! Here's the lowdown on my Berlook haul:
BERLOOK Haul & Review
I was lucky enough to receive two pairs of swimsuits from Berlook in exchange for a review, and I was so impressed that I ended up purchasing an additional pair!
The swimsuits arrived beautifully packaged and securely sealed. A thoughtful touch was the inclusion of a linen bag instead of plastic – perfect for carrying a spare suit to the beach.
I also couldn't resist adding a Purple Ruched Plus Size Bikini Top to my collection – a bit of extra versatility is always a good thing, especially when there's a sale!
Ruched Floral Plus Size Bikini Top
First up, the Ruched Floral Plus Size Bikini Top (major heart eyes for that name!). This top instantly caught my attention with its vibrant floral print – think juicy pinks and blues blooming across a black base. It's playful, feminine, and perfect for a poolside day with your besties. But the best part? Knowing it's made from recycled materials!
Berlook uses innovative fabrics that look and feel amazing, without sacrificing the environment. Plus, the ruching detail adds a flattering touch, making you feel confident and comfortable all day long.
Floral Plus Size Bikini Bottom
I was blown away by the quality of these swimsuits! The materials are thick and luxurious, not flimsy at all. The prints are crisp and vibrant, showing no signs of fading. But most importantly, these suits have serious structural integrity. They offer amazing support, keeping everything in place without feeling restrictive. I'm officially obsessed!
Red U-Ring Cross Back Plus Size Bikini
My second pick was the Red Ribbed Plus Size Bikini. This is a timeless style that every beach babe needs in their arsenal. The ribbed texture adds a touch of sophistication, and the high-waisted cut offers amazing coverage and support. It pairs perfectly with the floral top, but it would also look incredible with a simple black bandeau for a more minimalist vibe. The color is a showstopper – a fiery red that demands attention (in all the best ways!).
The Cherry on Top:
What truly elevates the Berlook experience is their commitment to sustainability. They're transparent about their sourcing and manufacturing processes, ensuring their swimsuits are kind to the planet. Plus, the quality of the materials is top-notch. Both pieces felt incredibly soft and well-made, the kind of swimwear that will last for seasons to come.
But I couldn't stop at just one red option! Berlook's red ribbed styles were so versatile, I had to snag a couple of tops to complete the look. The Red V-Neck Ribbed Plus Size Tankini Top adds a classic touch with its flattering neckline, while the Red U-Ring Cross Back Plus Size Bikini Top offers a more playful and supportive design. Now I have a whole range of mix-and-match options, letting me create different looks depending on my mood and activity level.
Final Verdict?
Berlook is a total win-win. While on the pricier side (think 30+ euros for tops and bottoms), these swimsuits are undeniably worth the investment. They're not just stylish and sustainable, but also incredibly durable. I've put them through countless swims and beach days, and even after several hand washes, they look as good as new. The quality is exceptional, and I can confidently say these suits will be in my swimwear rotation for years to come.
