Hi gang:
I bought a new bathing suit yesterday since my kid wants to go swimming over Memorial weekend.
Normally I just go to Speedo.com and find a solid ultraback Speedo with conservative cut in a new color I haven't had in years past. They are excellent for lap swim and water aerobics so for a long time that was my bathing suit solution. I just live with the price tag of $60-$80 because they tend to last me at least 2-3 seasons since most of my swim time is late spring and summer only.
I didn't want to spend that much this year though, and was pleasantly surprised to find a 2 piece solution for $45 at Target.
The top is an XXL racerback black and white geometric from the Maternity area. The bottom is a skirted 20/22W from the Women's area. I'd tried it with a back panty bottom and boy shorts but liked the skirt best. Helps minimize my problem areas.
So here I am in my bathing suit solution:
This is 5'8" apple shape -- most of my bulk is in my stomach and rear -- all central.
255 lbs.
Size 20/22W bottom and XXL top.
$45 at Target.
Anyone else want to post their plus size bathing suit solution for this year? I thought it would be cool to see all the different ways people tackle the bathing suit thing.
