bathing suits
on 6/25/17 6:52 am
The other day I took a chance on buying a new bathing suit from Amazon. I love it. It holds everything together. Great support also.
It is long enough my legs are covered but not like a moo moo.

I ordered two more today. I threw out all of my old bathing suits and bought these.
I think suits like that are SUPER cute and adorable. :D No idea when I'll ever need a swim suit again since I'm not a beach goer nor do I go to any local swimming pools. I bought my last suit when my family had a reunion at Lake Michigan two years ago? I tried it on the other day since I ran across it in some cleaning and, um, yeah... into the donation bin it went :P

I'm with you, RenRen. I found some awesome long-sleeved swim shirts on Amazon, along with both short, capri, and long swim pants. If I do decide to do the swimming thing again, that's what I'm getting. Plus, I burn just thinking about being the the sun, so it's not only protection for everyone else's eyes (lol), but also for my skin!
Super cute! I love the baby blue one with the flowers; looks so summery!
I just bought 3 suits from swimsuits.com. I really love the company because they have great sales and name brands, and if you live in the US ( I don't) you can exchange the suits for free if they don't fit. I don't normally care about brand names but I like that I can usually find them in the stores to try on first, then order the correct size.

Cute suits!!
I have had luck with Lands End swimsuits. I am different sizes on top/bottom, so I buy a top and swim shorts. The shorts dry quickly and cover the extra skin on my thighs. Easy restroom visits, too.
Bonus: No chafing!

Lands End is my go-to for bathing suits, but this one is really cute! Lands End typically has regular 40% off sales so you can get a good buy. They really hold up and fit well. I buy a lot of bathing suits (I also did when obese) because I live near the beach and visit Aruba for a couple of weeks every year.
