need classy bathingsuit
Permalink Closed


i need your help please!


i need a classy bathing suit.  if that makes sense.  the problem is:  i have a hard time with one-pieces b/c they never fit b/c i have a long torso.  plus: my best part of my body is my stomach.


so... could i wear a two piece and still look "classy" at a resort?  perhaps i need a long, whispy cover-up???


help???!!!!

I think you can absolutely look classy in a 2 piece.  You can always get a long sarong to wrap around yourself.  +Maybe try a more substantial halter?  I think those look nicer than stringy triangle tops ....

And some 'classy' one pieces, too:

I got this at overstock:


La Blanca Mint Halter Plunge Swimsuitand I think it's very sexy and classy at the same time.


SFC got the same one in black at Saks.

I think a two-piece can be totally classy!  I bet that most people at the resort you are going to will be wearing them as well.  I'd just bring a cover-up to wear when you aren't swimming or laying by the pool.


Also an alternative is a tankini, like a long tank swimtop and bottoms.  I'm wearing one this summer because my stomach isn't so hot - but I think they are much more comfortable than one pieces.


I actually have this one from Target:



but J. Crew has a ton of cute suits:

thanks for the suggestions girls.


Elle:  i the style you suggested- in fact- that is usually the top style that i go for.


SFC:  i actually looked at that same suit at Saks as well!  but was afraid of it b/c most one pieces do not fit me well at all.


basically- i think if i go for my regular style but just a solid color it would be more "resorty" than my usual picks...
