I was in desperate need of a new bathing suit for next weekend (going to the beach for our 39th anniversary.) Looked in every store imaginable, including the sporting goods stores, and ladies, you can sympathize, getting VERY depressed. Finally found the perfect suit (and had to buy it WITHOUT trying it on) at .... Are you ready for this?...Sam's Club!!!! Who would have thunk? Fits perfectly!

I agree- nothing worse than trying to get a bathing suit!
Happy Anniversary :)

I buy my swim suits from Land's End. They fit and they last forever. I swim several times a week, so I need a quality suit.

I got a very nice one years ago from Eddie Bauer and many years later, when the elastic on that one died got a nice one from Costco. I have to get one a size larger because I'm long waisted, otherwise I have far more showing on top than I'd planned on baring to the world. But Eddie does have some that I love. Used to wear only two pieces till my waist wasn't what I wanted to show anymore.

The only thing worse than finding one... is having to wear one. I am thankful there are no mirrors at the beach.

I get all mine from Lands End too and they are having a great sale this week...I dont need anymore but it sure is tempting. When we vacation we are always at a beach so I have several and have had a few of them for at least 3 years and they look as new as the day I got them....
