Swimwear anyone?

[Indadhanu]

I need advice, SIL just got a pool and Jazz and I are starting baby swimming classes at the public pool in December, so I'm looking to buy some togs as my last pair are a size 8 bikini and for starters my boobs won't NEARLY fit in them anymore LOL!

Not keen on showing off my belly so I thought one peice, that might hold me in but I'm not fond of parading my thighs so then I thought maybe a singlet type one (tankini... is that what they're called?) with some boardies. But then I'll have issue with it riding up my belly if its not a great brand...

BLERK!

Anyone have a great set of togs they wouldn't mind telling me about?

I am in the market too... so will be watching this thread...

However, someone today mentioned the Bond-eye shapers swimwear. And i did a quick look on their website and there is a good looking long tankini with BB support which I am going to go and check out.

Hopefully we can both find something that will make us feel as attractive as you can in a swimsuit, and to hide those stretchmarks and support the feeding boobies.

why dont you just get a one piece and still wear the swim short over the top....

It has to be the hardest thing to buy post baby the dreaded SWIMMERS ( togs for you QLD girls )...


Opps forgot to say that a tankie isnt the best for swim class as there is alot of jumping up and down with bub so your top WILL rise...

F--- me! $130 for a tankini top!

*looks around*

Do I dare? How could I justify that?

I second a good supportive one piece with some matching boardies over the top, even the short boardies still look nice....

[rufalina]

yeah they are $$$$$ so I am definitely going to look round first. I might have to try a one piece with boardies...

I got a great tankini from Myer - it fits really well - not too tight and it's black so it hides my rolly pollies I think the brand was Cheetah (??) and I paid about $100 for the set.

If you have a DFO near by, try Seafolly. They are expensive at full price, but worth it, and I found my last DFO trip I bought bathers for less than half price. The tankini tops have really good bust support, you can get longer length tops so they won't ride up. They have adjustable straps, you can halter, cross over or do singlet style. You can always get great boardies if you want longer lengths from Kmart or Target.
