I am in my pool almmost daily if the rain isn't spoiling things. I'm a "plus size " gal, and believe it or not, I buy my suits at Walmart. I just refuse to pay $60 for a suit that I'm wearing in my backyard. Actually they hold up very well. I get at least two seasons from them. And now I am heading to the bedroom to get into one and out to the pool. Susan????????

I just downsized from 6 suits to 3. They were bought from JC Penney. I need the long torso too. I did one this year from Wal-Mart. If I get 2 or 3 years out of it, that's OK- it was $25 for both pieces (tankini).

I have really good luck with the ones from Lands End--I always buy from the overstock section, much cheaper and I don't care if it is not the current season.

I buy most of mine from the overstock section, as long as I can find my size, I don't care about the color. I prefer the high neck ones for swimming laps.

I've been around beaches and swimming pools for many years, and I've never, ever seen a bunch of people circling around one person and pointing at her saying "Just LOOK at her!! She ain't got this year's style"!!!
