I'm super excitied over this one I just bought from VS. My top will be white with yellow bottoms though. I'm way too pale for an all black bathing suite. I can only dream that one day I will be more then 3 shades away from transparent. :-o

I love Seafolly so much and have so many sets. They have styles to suit everbody and the colour range is great. Bit pricey but they are well made (no stretch and dont fade) and last forever. Living in Australia this brand is hard to go past.

Canuk girl I'll have to see if there is an H M near me (NC). My SIL has had luck at TJ Maxx but she says that it gets picked over very quick (have to go early in season).

Canuk gal, this is the top I'm thinking of http://vip.zappos.com/athena-heavenly-bandini-top-navy?zfcTest=fcl%3A1

Board shorts I'm still pondering..there's a few I like. Trying to find them at Zappo's or someplace w/free shipping both ways just in case. A couple of the ones I like aren't available at Zappo's and one is pretty long but they're so darn cute--http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003TO5VDU/?ref=cm_sw_r_pi_dp_JckZrb0AKP7D4PSS These are another pair I like http://vip.zappos.com/rip-curl-love-n-surf-7-boardshort-swimming-pool?zfcTest=fcl%3A1 Then it's just a matter of deciding on top/bottom color.

She'd be correct! We have a comparable chain here in Canada called Winners--and I have found one piece suits for my workouts, but never anything otherwise. Further, I was in Victoria S today--and will not return again for swimwear. Nothing in stock, odd fitting....

Maybe I should just wait until I get to Hawaii next week, think they will have anything there?? :bigsmile:

cheers--Sharon

For sure. Seafolly has the most adorable suits! But I dislike the big prices! I do consider them if and when on sale tho....

Good find! I also like the matching Athena bottoms.

I was trying to find a black top today--or top with black in it--and hoped to find a bit of fringe or ruffle....so many adorable one on NM website. I know it is a trendy look, but in suits I hope trendy can be forgiven. :rodent: No one really cares what I am wearing or look like anyway! :saint:

And today got some super sales on Seafolly today--had to LIMIT myself to "just" two sets! I seem to have a lot of swimwear! :D

Another Aussie, we live in a surf, sun, and sea culture. And another vote for seafolly;

http://www.seafolly.com.au/

Billabong and Quiksilver also famous Aussie swimwear companies;

http://www.quiksilverwomen.com.au/womens/clothing/swimwear

http://au.shop.billabong.com/w/womens/swimwear

And for the hottest beach clothing and swimwear Tigerlily (owned by a former model and former Mrs Packer....);

http://tigerlilyswimwear.com.au/shop/bikini-sets

And for athletes and people training speedo is iconic (they make all the Olympic swimwear here);

http://speedo.com.au/australia/categories/womens

We also have a ton of small independent handmade swimwear designers that make the most amazing stuff as well....

HI:

This one in orchid with matching skirt bottom:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00717EKB0/ref=asc_df_B00717EKB02527911/?tag=nextagus0002369-20&creative=394997&creativeASIN=B00717EKB0&linkCode=asn

Adored these two sets and had a difficult time putting them down, but did not need another 2 complete sets...

Tigerlily has some cute suits. The Marilyn reminds me of the Nanette Lapore suite I have...
