Polka dots
lots of spandex to keep the wobbly bits stable
built in bra
custom sized
lined
ample coverage
slightly shirred at sides
deeper V to elongate
wide straps for support
black because it has a slimming effect
dots because you need a bit of fun
a cover up to minimize sun exposure
allows for a wee bit of modesty
at my age I am not looking for attention
nor do I want to have the tongues wagging
or fingers pointing in my direction!
I'd rather blend in gracefully
I do not wear my swimsuit often
but I do love to swim in the heat of summer
in the water
I wear this one
from Lands End
LOOK they have a sale!
Happy Shopping.

Love the polka dots!
Lands End makes great swimsuits. I just bought a couple of tankini's for our Mexico trip later this year. Haven't been brave enough to try them on yet....
Your swimsuit looks good! And the white shirt is a wise choice. Cute sandals!
Really love those chic sandals, and very nice swimsuit indeed, Bx
I finally broke down and bought a skirted tankini from them.
I've always had contempt for skirted swim suits but I have to say that it's oddly liberating. No worrying about those jiggly upper thighs.
hi leslie,
is so need a new bathing suit so i will pop over and see what they've got. swimsuit shop is the worst!
i like to wear a mens white shirt with the sleeves rolled up as my cover-up. what do you think of that?

i meant to say swimsuit shopping is the worst.
also, what's your opinion of a 50 year old in a bikini?

Deja Pseu- Mexico will be a wonderful vacation!
metscan-the cover up is an essential!
Blighty-These sandals are actually on their 3rd summer and show very little wear...
RoseAG-Comfort is important...those skirty things are very feminine.
The gardener's cottage-Yes suit shopping involves great strength and a critical eye...the white shirt is your style icon...do you ever wear pearls with yours?
Janet- A 50 year old in a bikini is fine...I saw a picture of Helen Mirren in a red one and she looked amazing.
thanks leslie for your opinion. i'm long waisted and while i think a one-piece is more appropriate on a 50+ lady, a bikini is so much more comfortable for me. i'll let you know what i decide to do.

Love the Lands End bathing suit - think that they do a great range but in UK we only used to get a limited selection.... x
Semi Expat-I know how you feel...I love many UK products and they are not available in Canada.
