Blake Lively Just Wore the Swimsuit Trend That's Never Going Away

As much as it pains me to admit it, I don't have any spring break plans this year—it's quite a bit harder to schedule a getaway in adulthood than it was in my college days. Blake Lively, however, is living her best vacation life right now. And thankfully, I can live vicariously through her Instagram photos, which racked up nearly 5 million likes in less than 48 hours. 

In one photo, Lively posed poolside wearing an ab-baring cutout swimsuit by Solid & Striped. Her exact swimsuit is sold out in nearly all sizes, but I found an excellent $80 alternative that's fully stocked in a range of sizes (XXS to 4X) and even has special sizes for those with long torsos. Genius. The cutout trend shows no signs of slowing down, so it's a smart purchase in my mind. Scroll down to shop for similar black one-piece swimsuits.

This ab-baring swimsuit is a foolproof purchase. 

This Madewell version is also available in sizes 1X to 4X. 

Be sure to use code SPRING to nab 50% off this suit until April 10. 

I absolutely love this one-shoulder silhouette. 

This exceptionally chic suit is bound to sell out at Anthropologie. 

You'll definitely be the best dressed person at the beach in this Versace number.  

If you're ready to splurge on a designer swimsuit, this one is incredibly cool.
