| I live in a beach town. I don’t want to start looking like an old chewed boot. I wear a rash guard and often just wear leggings into the water. Plus a hat. No one cares. My friends see me get plenty dressed up and showing skin in the other parts of my life. |

Last summer they had this is more colors so I hoped they're not discontinuing it, but I like this. Makes it easy to sunscreen since either don't have to do my back.

| I just got a Lands End catalog like it's 1998, and they have a lot of swim suits with good coverage. |
| Both Lands End and Swimsuits For All carry "swim tights" that are capri-pants length. I have both and prefer the ones from Swimsuits For All; they just seem a little less dowdy. Lots of places sell long-sleeve rash guards that can be worn in the pool. I've been looking into sun hats with SPF protection that can be worn on walks and in the pool, but haven't settled on one yet. Maybe someone will post a rec here. |
| Question re wearing rash guards- do you wear a bikini underneath? Bc these girls are a TIRED 56 yrs old. |
DP but when I wear a rash guard I wear a sports bra underneath. |
| Lands End, LL Bean, Coolibar is nice but can be expensive. |
| I like coolibar - the swim shirts are a little more fitted/flattering for slimmer women |
I wear a bikini underneath. My rash guard has NO structure and even my A cups would be embarrassing and uncomfortable. |

I have a swimsuit from this company. The long sleeves with a zip down the front is oddly sexy. My husband says I look like a Bond girl!

Those of us who are tall and or busty have been wearing Lands End the whole time lol. They have carved out a niche for extended/specialty sizing. Having a good fit is so important. |
