Show JUST STUFF Why is it so ditticuit for a women to buy a swimming suit? You would think that most women, adept at buying clothes, would have little trouble at buying something as simple as a summer swimsuit. That's not the case. First, one must realize that swimming suits aren't the type of apparel that most women want to run right in and put their body into. For one thing, at least with me, there is usually more of me than there is swimsuit. Once over the hurdle of deciding to try one on you're faced with the decision of what type to try. This goes beyond color, type of material or design. No, the big decision is One Piece or Two? Modesty rules one piece, but the vanity of having a nice, golden tan tummy pulls you toward a two piece. Compromise suggests buy either a low cut, skimpy one-piece or a high-wasted, long tailed two piece with an apron. Each one defeating the purposes. It usually boils down to a different kind of compromise. Simply buy two suits a nice, complimentary, one piece that covers an otherwise bare belly, and a scantily cut two piece to wear in the privacy of one's back . yard to do serious sun tanning in. One thing I've figured out about buying swim suits. If you're like me, it doesn't matter what kind you buy, be it skimpy one piece, long-sleeved two-piece, or just a plain, run of the mill swimming suit, it's still terribly difficult to walk out of the dressing room into the busy department store clad in merely swim wear, especially with your underwear showing at the legs and hips! Another little note about swim suits you pay for the empty spaces, not the material. Check it but . . . a skimpy, string bikini, with little patches will usually cost twice as much as the long sleeved turtle neck model in the one piece department. With such a dilemma as to what suit and what type to buy, I guess I'll see you at the pool in my tee shirt and cut off |
