Hey Girlfriends,

I am in the market for a new swimsuit. I am busty (36DD) and have worn Lands End in the past with much success, but this year I am not finding anything from their line up that moves me.

Here is my criteria:

1) Must be a tankini

2) Must provide adequate bust support.

3) Cannot be strapless, spaghetti strap, halter, bandeau, or too low cut. I do not want any wardrobe malfunctions! I do not want my cleavage to be the main attraction.

4) "Regular" bottoms--No skirt or skort or shorts. No low bikini.

5) No crazy, wild prints. I like a classic look, dark colors, preferably solid but would consider tasteful prints.

I know I sound really picky, but the fact of the matter is I am 50 and don't have a perfect body. I want something I can swim in, so I'm not looking for a suit that is just for looks or tanning or lounging around. I would opt for utilitarian over fashion, but I'm hoping I can have both.

Any suggestions? TIA, I know you ladies are going to come up with some great options for me.
