Where do you buy swimsuits?

My BFF made me go shopping today to try and find some thing to take to Cancun. She's even a bigger planner than I am and was freaking out that I leave in a month and don't have a bunch of outfits planned out. LOL.

I decided I want a new swimsuit (or two) to take with me. It's been years since I've bought one, so it's really about time anyway.

I think I want a bikini, and I think I want one to be strapless (for sunning myself minus strap tan lines). I don't want any crazy wild colors, but I don't want to look like an old lady either.

Any ideas on where to start looking? Or any favorites you've found that I should steal?

Re: Where do you buy swimsuits?

  • The last couple of swim suits I've gotten have been from Victoria Secret, Target and H&M.  I like that you can get a matching bikini in different top and botton styles because I'm a small upstop but a medium or large on the bottom.   

  • figleaves.com !!!!  All the way.  You'll be able to find a cup sized strapless one there so you won't worry about it falling down.  

    I just bought one, and posted a pic in the TEAM POISON post from yesterday.

  • I got a pretty cute one at JCPenney. I'd also say Target if you're looking to keep it inexpensive.
  • Actually, the last few times I've gone to WalMart, they had some cute ones up front.

    I usually get mine at surf shops back home, but if I'm not there and need a suit, I usually just run to Target or Kohl's. I don't like ordering online because (like Christina) I'm smaller up top than on bottom, so I like to try things on to make sure.

  • I get mine at old navy. They seem to be the only suit tops that tie in the back as well as around the neck with enough fabric to cover the ladies. I also have to get miss-matched sizes, medium bottoms and xxxxxxxxL top... Lol. 
  • Another Target and VS fan. If I order from VS, I'll buy 3 or 4, try them on, and return the ones I don't like.
