Jcrew bathing suits anyone?

I just got an email about jcrew suits and really like a few. We are going on vacation next moth so I have had my eye out for a new suit. I am small/petite so I have issues finding suits. Anybody have experience with jcrew suit? Any opinions qualitywise? I have a suit from lands end I really like and would order there again but haven't been thrilled with the styles. 

And my big question is about sizing? Is it pretty true to their size chart? It's free shipping/returns so that's good at least.

Im looking at this top in particular

or maybe this one

Re: Jcrew bathing suits anyone?

  • I could barely bring myself to click on links to bathing suits....yikes!!!  I saw Target had theirs out the other day already...sheesh! 

    anyway--I like the first top you posted better than the other one, and I like the teal color the most.

  • cute! I can't help with a color choice, because I think you should choose a color you like and flatters your complexion.  But I agree with Emmy the first suit top is my favorite between the two.  I like Lands End Canvas suits, got a couple cute ones there last summer on sale at the end of summer.  Yea for having a pool and an excuse to buy a late season swim suit!

    I find JCrews sizing guides to be helpful. I have measured myself and matched to their size charts with success.  I tend to order a lot online, especially pants.

  • I have a couple J.Crew suits. I like them but if you are going to be active they are probably not the best. They are more of a lounging at the pool/beach, not a water park type of suit.

    My favorite suit is actually from Lands Ends.

  • well in my searching I saw their sale stuff and found a suit I really like.  It was on sale plus 30% off. So for both top and bottom it totaled $20.  The sale is final so hopefully they fit, but for that price I was willing to take the risk!  I still like the other top too, but it is very similar in style to my lands end one, so maybe something different would be good.  Depending on how this one goes I may still order that one or another, but considering how vastly cheaper this one was it's worth a shot.  Pics below of the one I ordered

    That's really cute!  And a good price.  Darn these stretch marks; I want to wear a cute bikini.

    Thanks!it was the only color that had a matching bottom in my size!  There were a few colors I liked but I swear there were no bottoms left on sale. But I do really like the color too! Glad it wasn't something ugly like pea green left or something!  Now hopefully it fits!
