Land's End Swimsuits

Land's End has some great deals on swimsuits right now. I'm a huge fan of their swimwear. They have a wide variety of quality swimwear that is modest, fashionable, and priced right. I wait till their suits go on clearance and snag them for rock bottom prices. 

Here are a few suits on sale right now. Use promo code FAMILY and pin 5020 for another 25% off these sale prices. Spend $50 and you don't have to pay shipping!

I already own this one from two summers ago and absolutely love it. So flattering! On sale for $37 with the 25% off code and worth every penny!

Love the romantic silhouette of this suit, on sale for $49 (25% off that makes it $37).

This bandeau tank for $29 has a strap option as well.

This suit is on sale for only $19.99 - another 25% off that, and it will be $15!

I bought this one for $22 due to the 25% off code!

J.Crew Swimwear

Did you know that J.Crew offers free shipping (and return shipping) on all of their swimwear? That means you could put all their swimsuits on your credit card, have them shipped to youf or free, try all of the swimsuits on, return all of them and never have to pay off the balance of your credit card. Then you just have to wait for the one you want to go on sale and you will know exactly what size and shape you want.

Even better? J.Crew is also offering 40% off all of their final sale swimwear (free shipping, you just can't return it).

I ordered the tankini top with matching bottoms below in Shallow Sea and can't wait till it arrives!



Outfit Post: By The Pool

Today was a playdate at the pool. I wore my dark brown Land's End slendersuit that needed a little embellishment, so I added the necklace. This Old Navy eyelet miniskirt was the perfect cover up. I love these colors together: brown, white, and turquoise.

Outfit Post: Swimsuit

This picture was taken about a week ago at the beach, but I just wanted to show you this cute suit I found. I was frustrated at first with finding a modest swimsuit, but I was persistent and finally found 4 actually! Modesty in swimsuits is important to me, because every other day I keep myself covered up. Just because I'm at the beach, in my opinion, is not an excuse to throw it all out the window. Just my thoughts :)

Swimsuit - Delia's - $5

Modest Swimwear

It's that time of year when most of us are out trying to find that perfect swimsuit for our summer vacation. The hardest part about swimsuit shopping for me, is that I tend to be very conservative, so trying to find a modest swimsuit can be a pretty tough job. Trying to find one that is flattering makes the search that much harder.

Now, I should point out that modesty is all relative. For me, modest means no midriff, cleavage, or an extremely high leg opening. I'm ok with spaghetti straps, bare shoulders, or skirt-less/short-less swimsuits.

I did some online searches and was pleased to find that there are numerous options available that fit my modesty requirements (now let's just hope these are flattering as well!).

For instance, these two suits are from Target. Each piece costs $19.99 or under.

I found this one at Macy's, but it is pretty pricey (I think it was $108).

I love this navy and white suit because I think it would be figure flattering on many body types. I found it at Dillard's, but it was definitely on the pricey side.

I'm loving girly ruffles on swimsuits, I just wish I had the figure for them. This yellow ruffled number would look great on a small bust, so it's not for me - but I though it was cute and modest.

Some fellow fashion bloggers have introduced me to Divine Modestee which offers several different designs of swimwear at a reasonable price.

Check out how cute this retro red checkered suit is from Dillards:

Downeast Basics is another online store that I think offers a great selection of modest swimwear. Two of my favorites of their suits are pictured below:

Another modest online swim shop is Lime Ricki Swimwear. They offer a great selection of suits at good prices, too.

Where do you shop for swimwear, and is modesty an issue for you? Or just quality and fit?

Another Summer Uniform

I decided to post a couple of shots of the swimsuit I found off the clearance racks of Macy's last fall. For those of you who are interested, the suit is still at Macy's (with just larger polka dots).

I LOVE this suit. Due to it's retro lines, it is on trend, but by tying the halter slightly tighter, it succeeds in giving me plenty of coverage on top making it plenty modest as well. It also has extra support with boning on the sides of the bra, as well as a hook in the back.

I got it at Macy's for $9.99 for each piece, but full price it was only about $20 for each piece. Not bad if you ask me.

What swimsuits have you found this year that work for you?
