Swim suit shopping joy!!!

Ahhhh swim suit season. Let’s all be honest we hate it. It’s a reminder of how bad we have been all year long. This time it’s a reminder of how much I have lost this year. Even being smaller in size doesn’t make this chore any more fun. Actually it makes it that much more difficult. I am a big breasted woman so my options for swim suits drastically goes out the window.I have to buy a 2 piece swim suit because I also have a very long torso. So with my big boobs and my long torso 1 piece swim suits are dangerous. This August we are going to an indoor water park. 4 days in a bathing suit. I’ll Probably go on the water slides so finding a good suit that fits the girls and stays on is key! I’m not flashing my white as sheep boobs to the whole state of Texas. They might not invite me back.

 It takes lots of planning for swim suit shopping almost as much as a wedding dress. Just kidding. This is a MUST try on kind of thing. Just like bra shopping which is a hell of a lot easier I might add. I wish they would make all swim suits the same size and get rid of the small, medium, large crap. Sell the tops in bra sizes and make all of them cost no one more $30.00. I know in a perfect world this would work.
I took a leap of faith with my swim suit shopping. My crazy self ordered a bathing suit off the internet. The likely hood that it will fit is very slim. It also was super cheap which is another red flag it won’t fit. So I may be giving away a swim suit very soon. I also ordered it off eBay and it is coming from China. Yeah its an experiment for sure. The dang thing may not arrive before we leave for vacation.

Now my little girls I have stocked up on cheap swim suits. I just love shopping on wish and ebay. I got both girls 2 new swim suits that will hopefully be here before we leave for Texas. Definitely crossing my fingers if they don’t its no big deal. I’m sure we can find them a suit in Texas if needed. I can’t buy a swim suit in Texas. I tried it the last time I was in Texas visiting my mom and brother and I ended up with a pair of shorts and a sports bra. Luckily we didn’t go to a water park that time just swimming in my brothers backyard. I live in Florida there is a swim suit shop on every corner literally. So I will buy a suit right before we leave in hopes that I can find the perfect suit.

So here’s the best advice on shopping for a swim suit this mom can give you.
1. If you have had children you can wear a 2 piece.(its about being comfortable if wearing a 1 piece feels better than do it!)
2. Swim suits come in other colors besides black.(yes black makes you look thinner but if the suit compliments your eyes then draw attention to your eyes)
3. Make sure to grab at least 10 suits to try on. Nothing worse than running back and forth from the fitting room. (Also pick out your own suit don’t let anyone pick it out for you)
4. Bring a trusted friend with you to the swim suit shop. (You want an honest opinion not a backhanded compliment)
5. Make sure to eat before going. (You’re going to need all the energy you can get for trying on suits.)
6. Don’t forget the accessories like flip flops, beach bag, hat, cute sun shades, and the bathing suit cover up. These items bring it all together.
7. Unfortunately I can’t make swim suit shopping fun just remember that all of us have insecurities. Buy the suit you feel comfortable in and own it!!!!
8. Thanks for reading and until next time take care.
