Went bathing suit shopping today
It's official...I'm in one-piece land for good. I just don't feel comfortable in a two-piece anymore...plus, I don't think a two-piece is practical with the way DD plays. Anyway....I walked out with a black one-piece and I got home and tried it on again...I can honestly say it's the first time I've actually felt pretty comfortable in a suit! All those years of wearing two pieces...I was so self-conscious...it feels good to be a little more covered. 
No point to this post, really.

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
I went too
You had a MUCH better experience than I did.
The last time I wore a two piece, Reagan was our president, so I didn't even try those.
I guess I'll be wearing this look on the beach this summer...
Who's with me? If enough of us wear one we'll be "trendy". Image Attachment(s):

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today

I went to Bloomies and I was SO surprised at all the bikinis...I mean, let's be serious....unless you're under 25 and without a kid, who wears these triangles?? They really need to broaden their selection.

I know... if I own dishtowels that are bigger than the top and bottom put together, well then.
Oh, now I do remember seeing my mom rockin' a bikini after I was born but she was 8 years younger than I am and she was carrying one. It's not the weight that's the issue for me, it's the skin

actually, it's the same with me...I've always hated my skin...I'm very pale with lots of freckles and moles so every spot of fat or blemish is easily identified.

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
I think I'm going to be sporting a one piece this summer also. I don't even want to look at those little bikini's that I have in my drawer. And - Jack is sooooo all over the place - I can def. see putting on a show that NO ONE wants to see!

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
I wore a tankini with short bottoms on our cruise and they were comfy.
I don't forsee a bikini ever again for me---and I'm not that upset about it.

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
I went last weekend. ughhhhhh...at least with a two piece I could mix and match sizes...
my jugs don't fit into anything unless the *** is sagging.
but, I am glad you posted, it put a positive spin on the experience.

Not to be gross but it has nothing to do with my paleness. My belly stretched a lot farther than most being pg with twins (no stretch marks though). At my age, the skin will not bounce back , it's stretched out a bit and well, there's a bit extra now. Doesn't matter how thin I am, I have a bit of extra skin there Guess, I'd be a perfect candidate for surgery but I'm not going there. My belly is but my DC's are

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
I am "hoping" to go back into my pre-baby bathing suits.
I have those tankinis and skirt bottoms. There were cute so I hope I can fit back in them. I have not try yet.

I'm not even 30 - I'm 28 and less than my pre-pregnancy weight. Everyone says I am thin, and I am....but things are different now after the baby...I used to have the most perfect boobs...pregnancy and breast feeding changed them. I feel more comfortable with them a bit more covered now. Same with my belly. I work out all the time too....I just feel personally ready for a one-piece.

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
My pre-preggo tankinis fit obviously dont look as good but my boobs are the main issue. I bought this from Spiegel. I feel more comfy in it.

Re: Went bathing suit shopping today
Alicia, you have a killer body and you know it, but the thing is how YOU feel about it...and if it makes you feel comfortable being in one-piece then go for it...my pregnancy thank God has left me with no stretch marks, but I have a flobby body which I need to tone. I want to wear a two-piece this summer for sure though! I saw these cute tw-piece bathing suits in Newport News...with the skirted bottoms, halter tops with the extra support...really cute and cheap. And I think thats what I'm going to go with.
