Despite all of the above, I managed to find this number recently. I think this has to be one of my most favourite bathing suits I have ever bought. The twisted top gives the illusion of a bust (work with me...), there are straps to keep me from embarrassing myself, the ruching on the sides (and tummy control technology) sucks it all in, the bottom provide ample coverage and the side can be pulled down over the hips to look like a 40's pin-up suit. And it is red with polka dots! Old Navy, my friends. They had some awesome suits, many on sale. Just because I'm on a tight budget doesn't mean I have to hide under a towel all summer!
wow. old navy?
ReplyDeletewow!
That is super cute! Love the retro style.
ReplyDeleteOld Navy, hey? That number would totally suit me as well.
ReplyDeleteThis suit is so cute. I love the color and retro style. And I still need to get a bathing suit for the summer -- though I'm not much of a beach person (fair skin = quickly burned) so I'm not sure how much I'd even use one. But it's an essential, right?
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa! I loooove this gorgeous red polka-dotted number. Coindentally, my fav bathing suit is a pink polka-dotted bikini also from Old Navy. I got it 15 years ago and can't seem to part with it.
ReplyDeleteI was in there again today (mostly for the air conditioning) and they have a whole new range of great suits - some in the most beautiful lapis shade of blue... 15 years is pretty long-lasting for a bathing suit!!
ReplyDeleteExactly. I have worn it once so far and it seems it might not be the best "swimming" suit, but it sure is purdy...
ReplyDeleteI have found Old Navy to be A1 for swimsuits - them and Joe Fresh. I think this style would look great on most shapes.
ReplyDeleteMe too! And the butt coverage. Love the butt coverage.
