lands-end-tankini.jpgSince this is a summer celebration, we needed to get you ready for the sun.

Whether it is running through the sprinkler with the kids, hitting the beach or dipping in the pool — we moms need to have a swimsuit! (Personally this is the first time I have a pregnant belly for the summer, so I need to find myself a suit in a hurry too!)

But oh the dreaded fitting room sessions… Does any woman look forward to trying on swimsuits?

  2. I am petite, short waisted, but full-figured. Yeah, they don’t sell bathing suits that fit me anywhere I have ever seen. I keep hearing people rave about Land’s End though. With five kids, affording one of their suits seems like a daydream. But those five kids want to go to the pool on our vacation. HELP! Here’s hoping!

  5. What a fantastic idea! I have two trips planned, one to Cancun and the other to St. Thomas and I have been so worried about what suit I will take! I am so small that I have to shop in the “misses” sections and it becomes very difficult to look at yourself as a 30yr old woman when you are wearing a Tweety Bird or Hannah Montana Swimsuit! Please, Please, Pretty Please, count me in!?!

  8. Last year I lost my favorite swim suit in a fire.
    So yeah a new custom made swim suit would for sure win over my heart and become my favorite. Especially, if it flatters me up for some compliments from my hubby 🙂

(wink) Thanks for this opportunity!
