Where do you shop for swim suits?

It's getting to that time of year again when I need to get some new bathign suits for the summer season. I always seem to have trouble finding cute ones that fit right. I'm small on top but kind of bottom heavy (thick outter thighs and a big butt) so I need bikini bottoms that have some coverage on the back. Where do you ladies shop for swimwear?

I like VS and Athleta.

In fact most of my suits are from Athleta because they come in all cup sizes.

Nordstrom and VS. I love both because you can buy as separates.

Re: Where do you shop for swim suits?

Has anyone ever gotten bathing suits from JCrew?? I found a bunch I like but I'm not sure about their sizing...I'm wondering if the bottoms run big or small...

Re: Where do you shop for swim suits?

Blum's in patchogue or lord and Taylor. I prefer to go to a store since bathing suit sizing varies so much. Last year I ordered a bunch from jcrew in varying sizes and nothing worked. When I went to the store where they had virtually nothing to try on, they told me last years ran big but not sure if that's always the case.

Lands End! They last and do not stretch/fade.

Re: Where do you shop for swim suits?

I second Land's End.
I like that the tankinis come as separates, I'm a big gal overall and wear two different sizes on top and bottom.

Quality is good as well, suits have some oomph to them, not thin and skimpy material.

I get most of my suits from there. I find the bottoms run a little big.

I like Lands End too.

I have a few suits that have lasted YEARS.

Good quality, flattering and lots to chose from.

They aren't cheap but I think its worth the cost as they don't stretch, fade, etc.

For me, the swim suits at old navy have always fit me the best.

Absolutley LOVE Land's End. They have all different sizes and fits, and some are adjustable in terms of coverage. I'm very big on top so i love the tops that can be ordered by bra size. SUPER supportive and comfortable while still being cute.

AND they have a lifetime guarantee.
