Oh, man, Charlotte… I know where you’re coming from. I just BOUGHT my first swimsuits last summer after not wearing any since maybe age 13.

I haven’t owned a swimsuit in nearly a decade (pretty much since puberty). It’s very hard to find swimwear that fits my body properly, but if Kim Kardashian can wear a bikini, so can I! I’ll be sure to keep this information in mind when I finally get one.

It’s so counter-intuitive, you know?

So good to know about the J. Crew wide band bikini! Will check this out!

LOL, I read that and I was like, “I think that might be outside my comfort zone!”

I think it’s totally true that sometimes a two-piece is more flattering than a one-piece, even if you are chubby. My logic is, you’re not gonna fool anyone into thinking you’re a size 4, so why not show some skin? It feels good! I wear a size 12, with broad shoulders and a long torso, and my J.Crew wide-band bikini is way more flattering on me than one-piece suits.

Very helpful tips! Swimsuits are so totally about fit and color (just like business suits). Even though I want to de-emphasize my bum, I can’t get behind (pardon the pun) wearing less fabric back there! Yikes!
