Re: What Style Is Your Bathing Suit?

When we went to family beach house I would wear a 2 pc bathing suit. Are all 2 pc suits considered bikinis? My belly is exposed, but my top would have lots of supporrt (Something like below).

Now that I have to worry about skin cancer, ugh, I will probably wear some version of a tankini, sit under an umbrella and slap a ton of spf all over.

Back in my teens through mid 20s I wore the teeniest tiniest bikini you can imagine. I'm sure a lot of you did too. I can't swim and started shunning the sun at 25 so I have not worn a bathing suit in many years.

Alas, I must stay covered in the sun but prior to developing an autoimmune illness, I much preferred styles like the first one, which in my opinion, is a classic. Nowadays, it would be swim crop pants and long sleeve, crew neck swim top with a hat.

I have triangle bikini sets in an 80's colorful tropical prints or a Baywatch style one piece with a high leg cut out and scooped front and back in hot pink or a fruit punch red color Smiley Happy.  @ECBG  I should get a leopard one piece swimsuit!

I only wear one piece suits. We have a boat and just about live on it during the Summer. I have a lot and I get flattering/sexy suits. Cupshe has awesome styles.

Re: What Style Is Your Bathing Suit?

I dont own one because I would not show this body out in public in it and we dont have a pool.  I have never been a water/swimming kinda gal anyway.

Re: What Style Is Your Bathing Suit?

I have a couple of tankini style suits that I wear if I'm in the pool or the lake.  Most often when I'm in the lake, we are using the kayaks so I have a couple of pairs of knee length swim leggings that I wear with a short or long sleeved UV resistant shirt.

@ninjawife  We are down the highway about 30 minutes from you in Ocean City, MD.  We would love to be able to have a place in Rehobeth instead because it's so much quieter, but Rehobeth is cost prohibitive these days 😕


@bmorechick Rehoboth and the surrounding area is quite busy.  Traffic on Rte. 1 is a nightmare.  Our house is closer to the bay so we do need to drive to get to the ocean.  We visit the ocean through the state parks mostly Cape Henlopen in Lewes.  It is impossible to get into the parks on the weekends.  If DH and I decide to retire there, we would sell our current place and move to the ocean side of Rte 1 somewhere in Lewes.

I purchase my swimsuits from the Venus catalog.  Tankinis and one piece suits.  Don't care for the suits the Q sells.  Too much fabric and matronly looking.
