Now that the pools are opening up around here again, I've got to find a swimsuit. Where did you find your favorite one? What brand is it? I need some ideas. Thanks! :happy:

    My favorite one is an old Billabong one from PacSun. They usually have good deals.

    H&M offers really cute ones that are super cheap also! :) But I've recently found a bikini ( http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=23822067 )at Urban Outfitters that is just gorgeous. Only problem is, I'm broke. -.-

    OMG I must have tried on 35-40 of them this year. I ended up at TJ Maxx, whichi I totally hate that store. I found one there that's really cute.

    I just ordered mine from victoria's secret. they have such a variety of styles you're bound to find a style you like. they're good quality and hold up wonderfully! I personally like that you can mix/match your styles.

    they have some one sale too! :)

    Both of my teenage daughters and I have loved the swimsuits we've gotten thru Lands End in the last few years. Not flimsy fabric, lots of mix and match to make different looks. Special sizes (2 of us are quite tall) and can get diff size top/bottom if necessary.

    I agree. The Urban Outfitters suit is cute

    I bought one from Sears, only liked one. 60% off $36.99.

    Went to Ross's; bought 3 for $25.99 each

    Took the Sears one back.

    Since I have a large belly & am in plus size I like the skirted suits.

    I am 43 and have no desire to wear my mother's bathing suit, but needs some coverage for the girls (34- 36DDD) .I like the tankinnis at lands end that come in bra sizes. they support and make it comfortable to chase children down the beach. When I was still wanting a bikini I bought from venus swimwear for the same idea of cup sizes.

    I wear a Diana swimsuit. Sort of like a wetsuit at the bottom, with a normal swimming costume strap top half.

    It covers my thighs, which is what I need. I don't mind them, but I do feel that other people would like not to have to see all the stretch marks on my tree trunks.

    Here it is, actually. I use it for all my progress shots:

    I am busty (34H right now), so I have a bra sized one. It is from a brand called Ballet and has built in underwire.

    I recommend anyone above a DD get a bra sized suit, it will change your life!

    I haven't got a new suit this year since I got one late last year & still fit it. But when I do I want to get something like this from pinupgirlclothing.com

    I've always loved Betsey Johnson swimwear, but it is expensive. Her pieces are always so fun and flirty! I finally bought one for myself this year (the Primrose style) as a reward for getting fit, but then I got pregnant! (VERY HAPPY about that btw!) Oh well, at least I got to wear it in Hawaii for Spring Break! And hopefully, I can wear it next year!

    Im looking into new swimsuits, and i was thinking of going with one of the "beandeu" types. (no straps, just kinda like a boobtube thingy).

    anyway im actually one of those people who swims in thier bathers (OMG!), in the ocean (OMG OMG), and just wondering how these htings stay the hell up? anyone got one? or is it really a fashion thing? i dont want my girls hanging everywhere

    I got my favorite suit from esther-williams.com. They only have a couple of styles, but I love the retro cut.

    all my suits are luli fama. they have the brazilian bottoms that have the scrunch-butt thing. i like it because one of my pet peeves is saggy wet bathing suit *kitten*.
