It's funny that this poster seems to be suggesting that amazon, Lilly Pulliitzer and Ralph Lauren are like a full spectrum of different styles.
NP. Well, that's because Amazon is very different from Lilly or RL.
Kind of but not really. They're all super basic and boring.
Yes. This is the answer. Super basic and boring. There is no cc with 10 people at the pool. Large crowd and too much skin will get you noticed in the wrong way.

Nothing cheap about Lilly. Maybe it looks tacky to have one of those "matching head to toe" Lilly outfits with the matching bag, shoes, dress, headband, koozy for your waterbottle, etc.
But Lilly has always been a staple of country club style and no one will look at you amiss if you wear a Lilly shift dress as your cover up to a country club pool. You'll actually fit in perfectly.
Agree. The all black was a bunch of women trying to look skinnier. At least the Lilly wearers are owning it.

Does that mean no two piece suits or no thongs or….
I find this thread totally fascinating.
We belong to a pretty nice club and 90% of woman are wearing bikinis, 75-80% of those are extremely cheeky or thong. But there are frequently no more than 10 people at the pool.
So the majority of the women at your CC are wearing "extremely cheeky or thong" bikinis?
You don't belong to a CC lol.

Agree with everyone, you don't want to be that lady trying to hard or revealing too much. You want to look put together but not a try hard. You want to look like you belong.

Two piece suits are okay as long as they’re covering what needs to be covered. Thongs are definitely a no-go because it’s a family environment. It’s a pretty common sight to see bikinis but they are not the “cheeky” sort everything on the bottom is covered and no tiny triangle bikinis.
Think classic bikinis.
