Land's End Bathing Suits
May 19, 2009
05/19/09 - if you're like me....your a bit wiggly & giggly & droopy all over. I'm actually not THAT bad in most places, but my top half is def not like a 20 y/o.... if you get what I mean.You prob remember that last Nov I attended a wedding on St John. Since I waited until the last minute to buy a bathing suit, I wasn't expecting much of a selection...and the one I found thru LandsEnd.com was ok. Nothing fab, but it was ok...and it fit (I was a size 14)
This season I've hit Lord & Taylor's, Bloomingdale's, Macy's, etc - nothing seems to fit me properly. All make me look uber-droopy. Then I went online & saw the selection that Lands End had. Kinda pretty....then I read something - Land's End is hosted in SEARS! Now way! So, this past weekend I schlepped over to the mall & walked past the icky Sears bathing suit selection & into the Lands End dept (again...I had NO IDEA it was even there).
OMG - the suits are sooooooooooooooooooooooo cute....and reasonably priced!
I found a tankini I liked so much in pink that I picked it also up in green....and matching skirts too! They were out of my size in the green bottoms, so they ordered it online for me (free of charge).
Click on the links below to order these outfits (in Seaglass Green & Deep Pink):
for the tops: Beach Living Ikat Print V-Neck Halter Swim Top
for the bottoms: Beach Living #2 Leg Wide Waistband Tummy Control Swim Bottom
for the skirts: Beach Living Tummy Control SwimMini
Oh, and here is the suit I picked up last year - it's now even cuter now that I found a black skirt (the Beach Living Tummy Control SwimMini)!
I cant seem to find the pattern for the top or bottom, but the main difference from this suit vs. the ones I picked up this year - is that this top has a Criss Cross back (for DD support, which I still needed back last Nov), while the tie top of the newer suits are made for a D support. You'll notice online almost all style tops can be purchased either way.
Seriously, check out LANDS END...I promise that you will be surprised & pleased!
Oh, just to throw so weight numbers around: the last 2 weeks I was gaining & went as high as 172.5 lbs. As of this Saturday I've been back down to 167lbs Not really sure what happened, but considering I didnt eat anything different or change my excersize pattern - I guess that is just what happens.
