Bathing Suits
Am I the only one that has such a hard time buying any?
Actually got 3 at Target today and while I feel I need to tone up more, I felt I looked pretty good in them. I never feel like this.

Re: Bathing Suits
Amazon!
Read the reviews and look at pics people post of themselves in the suit. I always try to find someone with similar measurements to me in the reviews because obviously it's hard to tell how it will look an a "real" person based in the 100 lb model they have wearing it. 
And most are free returns so you can try them on no risk.
Cupshe is a good brand that Amazon carries

Re: Bathing Suits
I haven’t found one I like in years. I’ve been using last years bathing suit bc everything j tried this year sucked.
No real support on top, bottoms are either super high (hate that) or way too low.
And then most stores have almost zero selection either. I’ve ordered probably 8 on Amazon and they sucked too.
Considering ordering some from Venus to try.

I like Venus bathing suits. They generally are well made

Bathing Suits
I have given up looking good in a bathing suit. I am embracing my fat self and whatever lol. I still am wearing the suits I bought 5 years ago.
My daughter loves the Cupshe brand on Amazon. They fit well and give her the coverage that I think she needs.

I actually bought 2 from them, and LOVE them.
I can never make out good at Target or Marshalls/TJ Maxx.
Before I went to Mexico, I went to a place in StonyBrook called "Lovely Lady Lumps". They are pricey, but got a few from them, and the ladies who work there are amazing!

Re: Bathing Suits
Lands end and Amazon. I also can recommend the cupshe brand. I got that one for myself and my daughter. Really comfortable and cute designs. I think it was less than $30 too.

Re: Bathing Suits
I have been obsessed with Aerie for two years now. For the price/quality point you can’t beat it. They also offer separates. I have never had much luck with Amazon but I hear good things from others.

Re: Bathing Suits
I love Lovely Lady Lumps in Stony Brook. The owner is incredibly helpful and makes sure you leave looking good and feeling confident. The suits are a little pricey but they last for years if you take care of them.

Totally agree, they are so great in there. They were so patient with me. You get 5 star treatment, and walked out of there with 3 suits, and felt good wearing them. Bathing suit shopping is so difficult for me because I do have a big chest.
