Purchasing a bikini should not have to be this hard! I am not a skimpy bikini kind of girl, nor will I ever be. I don't weight 120 lbs and lets say the genes didn't give me an hourglass shape, so I'm working with what I've got. Every bikini I have looked at so far is SO skimpy. Victoria's Secret is now selling some of their swimsuits in stores and they are so low rise that you probably have to order 2 sizes up to get a comfortable fit (and they aren't selling that size in stores). I mean honestly, whose torso is THAT long?
So I found this Garnet Hill number and I think it will fit the bill (or at least I hope). The bottoms look thick enough on the sides and are described as "inspired by active lifestyles." (Or we can just pretend on that one) I think I'm leaning towards the turquoise since I already have an older candidate in black and white in my drawers. If I had it my way I'd wear one pieces but I'm sure Justin would not be thrilled with that on our honeymoon.
Anybody know of a good place to buy a bathing suit?

After two kids I'm definetely not in any kind of bikini shape so I'm not much help. Have you considered a bikini top with one of those cutsie little skirts (hides any junk in the trunk yet still sexy)?
It's not a bikini, but Old Navy has a super-cute coral tankini that I am eyeing. It was featured as one of the top swimsuits in Real Simple recently.
It's really a darling swimsuit...
I prefer to wear a bikini, though I've been wearing the same one for years because trying on swimsuits is quite honestly one of my very least favorite things to do!
Best of luck in your search for the perfect suit!

ooh love the turqouise color and it will probably set your hair off really well :) and i seriously love that twisty top - i can never wear bandeaus because i'm not that well endowed :/
Ugh! Bathing suit shopping always sucks! I always get so down and depressed. I wish I knew of a good store but I don't.
The bikini that you found is adorable! My vote is definitely for that one. Good luck shopping!
