The start of summer in the Florida Keys means it’s time for a new bathing suit or five (you can never have enough in South Florida, period). Searching for this summer’s top styles and patterns resulted in three top trends to try: high-neck tops, florals, and sleeves, caplet and/or off the shoulder. And then there’s the convenience of long-sleeve, SPF tops. Hey, no one can argue the convenience of not having to reach for the sunscreen on the sandbar all day long. Try one of these summer styles. Treat yourself.
