Swimsuits.....my least favorite thing

[mominkansas 2]

Any suggestions where to get a cute suit? We leave for Florida for 2 weeks in about 5 weeks. Do I buy a suit at the size I wear now? A size smaller? Any suggestions on where to get one? I am about 198# and I am 5' 6"

You don't say where you are located but, good luck finding one! My two suggestions would be

Wait till you get to FL or try someplace like LL Bean catalog.

if you get something like this:

BeanSport Halter Top, Stripe: Swimwear at L.L.Bean

you can kinda get away with the size not being exactly right

I LOVE Lands End's suits. I recently bought a few in hopes that one would work out, but they all do! I am actually having a hard time deciding which one to send back.:w00t:

They have an "Overstock" section that has suits at pretty reduced prices. They have a Grecian suit that is gorgeous and fits beautifully. Women's All-over Control Solid Grecian V-neck Slender Swimsuit from Lands' End

(Click on the clearance priced colors for $59 price)

Also, you can get free shipping through today only with code:

SEPT1 and pin code: 00001145

Have fun on your trip!!!

Oh, yeah- about the size. I currently wear a 22/24 and I bought a size 18. It fits great with room to shrink.

Good luck!

I agree Lands end suits are the best. I have two that are really flattering.

Dillards in Fl just put their suits on sale at 70% off!!! I bought a $134 Miraclesuit for ~$40!!!! I feel like a million bucks in it! A 16 would have been perfect but I got a 14 & it fits well.

We have winter coats where the swimsuits used to be up here in the great white north!
