You silly girl! That looks like something an old lady would wear. You don’t have to be that modest or self conscious.

i considered some one pieces from j crew. they looked nice in the catalog, but not on the website for some reason. anyone purchase j crew suits before? howd you like them?

more than my fat, it’s the scars i have on my stomach and hips.

For me, I wore my very first bathing suit last year on a reunion trip to Florida with my girlfriends. And I was so paranoid and shy about my body. I still am. I bought a basic black two piece bathing suit. They made fun of me (out of love I know) saying I kept blinding them with my pale skin. Though I am not a fan of tanning, I would have reconsidered going to one before Florida. I was so pale against the black suit. If not, I am sure swimming on the beaches of CR a couple of days will be good enough.

Those suits are cute, work with what you feel most comfortable with. For me, I would feel most comfortable in an oversized black t shirt and shorts or maybe those scuba gear.

I wear a string bikini and I’m old! I wear them because they look best on my body shape.

I say, transcend the scars… I’d strut around with them if they were mine. Because they are distinctive. They are YOU and nobody else.

The best idea is to buy what looks best on your body, because there is a certain cut that will be most flattering. For example, it I wore one of the suits pictured (although they look good up there) I would look like a Mack Truck.

I’ll wear bikinis or tankinis. I’ll wear them for as long as I can until I can’t wear them anymore. haha

I have eczema scars too but I don’t care. People are not going to concentrate on my scars anyway. Just be comfortable in your own skin and everything else will look good on you.

I tend to stay away from black because I’m pretty pale myself, so black will only make me more pale.

I actually like those 2 you’ve shown, if you think you’d never wear a bikini (like me, I wear a two piece, but the bottom is always a skirt, and I’m pale :)) then go with the one-piece, they’re designer, you can’t go wrong with that!

i can understand you being uncomfortable about your ezcema (cuz my sister has it and i know how she feels) but as for your body, i think you are underestimating yourself! i do like the black one though. But I could never wear a bikini either, takini’s all the way for me. i bought a solid brown one from jcrew and i love it.

Victoria’s Secret also makes some nice swimsuits, and their website carries some stuff from other lines too. I like the VS suits because you can order the tops by bra size, which is helpful to those of us more petite women who exceed the Asian norm. And if memory serves correctly, you fall in that category, Mrs. Bee! (^.^) they’ve got supporitive bikinis, cute tankinis and slimming one pieces for your viewing pleasure!

… i swear they’re not paying me for this. =P
