bathing suit help!!! SECOND CHOICE ADDED
I am a size 6-8 which I guess you would consider thin, but my weight is distributed sooo oddly.. My legs r like sticks, i have a tummy pouch and my boobs r not that big. I have one bathing suit (tankini--that is black and white) and I was hoping to find a bathing suit that has a little more color. I was thinking of going for a one piece that "sucks it all in" but I am 26 years old..I dont want to look 86..
Do you think this bathing suit is hideous? I tried it on in the store and I thought it looked ok but I just cant decide..the picture isnt that good but i would love some opinions...or some suggestions!!
CHOICE #1
CHOICE #2
FROM VS BUT HOW DO I KNOW MY SIZE??

Re: bathing suit help!!! SECOND CHOICE ADDED
Definitely like the second one MUCH better! I was in Kohls tonight and they have a ton of suits - tankinis, one pieces, great sales too!
I got this suit for $30!!!
ETA - hard to tell in the pic - but it's black and gold and the gold is glittery.

Re: bathing suit help!!! SECOND CHOICE ADDED
Thanks Guys, I think I am going to head over to the mall after work...and try some on in Macys and JcPennys... I noticed that lately the stores have less and less and are brining out more "fallish" type clothes..so I dont want to wait until the end of August --when my trip is..
Thanks again for the opinions !!

Re: bathing suit help!!! SECOND CHOICE ADDED
If the second one is "body" by VS then I have it in a different color and its PERFECT for what you described. It makes my boobs look HUGE and they are barely a B. And, I guess I have a short torso because it covers the top of the bathing suit bottom and totally hides the belly! and the bottom is SO cute with the ring detail. I also bought the swim skirt which is MUCH more covering than any other that I have tried.
I get more compliments on that bathing suit than my bikinis!!

Re: bathing suit help!!! SECOND CHOICE ADDED
Do not like #1 at all!!! It belongs on a women over 50.
I really like choice #2, it is really cute. A size 6-8 is usually a medium.
