I like the first one! I def prefer a one piece and anything that covers my thighs is a plus in my book!
I totally agree with you on that one. They have some really cute boy cut suits that I generally go with. I’m not all that fond of my thighs at this point 🙂
same here. After 2 kids I am not all that thrilled with the bikini idea! Cover up’s are an important pool accessory!
I love the 40’s one. I think it is so cute. I would buy that today. And it wouldn’t make me feel like I was buying a bathing suit because I was a mom, I was buying it because t was cute.
that’s quite a jump from the 60’s to the 80’s! soo funny!
For my body style, I think the older bathing suits are better. I don’t mind the newer ones, but some are just too small!
As a kid of the 80’s I prefer that style.
