Okay so in Nov is started an all natural diet supplement. so far down 20lbs :smile:. just 15 lbs more to go :biggrin: and just 2 more months before spring break in Bradention, FL and I WILL get the rest off before then. I am working out everyday with my xbox yourfit, 3 days a week with my trainer, eating healthy, along with the plexus (which curbs my appetite and stops cravings). I feel very confident that the last 15 will melt off. Well every year our Mustang club rents a beach house and goes down south for NMRA(National Mustang Racing Association). Well I really want to start looking for a swimsuit. I am an early planner :smile:. I want it to be classy and sexy yet still semi modest. No parts hanging out to flash anyone lol. I trust you ladys and gents on TPF more than anyone when it comes to just about anything...is that sad lol? I up for suggestions opinions anything u want to share. Has to be less than $500 I cant see the point in spending more than that unless its for a fashon mag or runway lol. well so far i found these.

I don't know if you are set on a bikini (I'm on my phone and it's a pain to open links), but I just read an article online the other day about how bikinis are fading out and one pieces are making a huge comeback...lots of celebs wearing them, etc. Maybe you would want to consider a one piece as well? Some of them are really gorgeous this year and I was actually thinking of investing in one or two for more modest days :-p

Lol!! I always envision one pieces looking like Speedos or what Mom's in the 90's wore...lol!! A lot of them are actually pretty sexy now. Typically I can't wear them well because I'm tall and have a long torso, so the end up pulling too much. I tried to buy a few when my son was little and I took him to Mommy and Me Water Otter swimming classes :smile:

I have the L*Space Audrina monokini in black though and LOVE it!! Very comfortable and classy, but definitely sexy.

Do you have Everything But Water anywhere close? They have the best selection. Maybe they have an online store.

I agree with the poster about the one piece suits. I bought a gorgeous one piece last summer, they a not like the older woman one piece suits of the past.

Here's a link to the one piece L*Space that I bought. http://www.shopthetrendboutique.com/lauonepiinbl.html

It's out of stock on this website now, but like I said, I ordered it last year or the year before? Not sure. Anyway, Shopbop usually has some cute one pieces/monokini's also. Bikini's are definitely always nice to have and I love them, but it's nice to be able to have completely different looks and add some dimension with some of the one piece styles that are available now. They just look so classy and elegant with a wide brimmed beach hat and big sunglasses.

All the suits you posted are very cute, but I wouldn't consider any of them even the tiniest bit modest. I'm all for itsy bitsy bikinis, I own lots of them, but sometimes it's not how much skin is showing, but how it's shown. Shredded sides and see through mesh, while adorable and sexy, is something I save for vacations with my man! Of all that you posted, I think the white trimmed denim one or the white and black one are most appropriate for what you described. The others are a little bit over the top to me. I like the solid black monokini posted right above also. Congrats on your weight loss!!! My sister lost 30 pounds a few years ago and we had a blast shopping for all her new clothes!

How about something retro? It's pretty and modest.
