kiraryker Posted September 1, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Where can I get a nice suit that is true to size off the web?? We don't sail until January so I have some time but being the end of summer I suppose now is the best time for the best selection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted September 1, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 1, 2010 If you're near a city with a year round swim suit store, do yourself a favor and go TRY ON suits! Buying them online is so "hit or miss"....sizes aren't all the same, what looks good on the model doesn't look right on you...and returning is such a pain! There are several year-round stores....Surf and Sand, Swim n' Sport....they all have names like that....It's really worth the drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrqoisWtrs Posted September 1, 2010 #3 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I agree about trying them on, but then I'll make a note of what I liked and hit ebay or other online stores. I've gotten some really nice ones (new w/tags) on ebay for a fraction of what I saw in the store. Another I like is http://www.swimsuitsforall.com/. Can usually google for additional coupons.

murfturf Posted September 1, 2010 #4 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Sears has lots of suits on clearance right now! I don't shop there normally, but have had very good luck with the suits. Go before Labor Day weekend and you should still be able to find some (depends on your area I guess.) Macy's, Penney's and other Dept. Stores might have them too.

kiraryker Posted September 1, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Thanks! I live about a 2 hour drive away from any decent stores - (big name) so I guess I could go look I just hate shopping - I will try ebay also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suezyq50 Posted September 1, 2010 #6 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I like swimsuits for all also. I like to order 2 different sizes when ordering anything online. Once I see what fits the nicest, I mail back. For me it was one less headache even though I know I will be mailing something back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted September 1, 2010 #7 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Another I like is http://www.swimsuitsforall.com/. Can usually google for additional coupons. ^ I ordered 2 suits from them and they are super cute. I wish I'd known to "google the coupons" - I certainly could have used them! Although the site itself did give me 3 coupon codes, so I don't know how many more they would have accepted! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msrizzo Posted September 2, 2010 #8 Share Posted September 2, 2010 The Macy's by me...MD/DC area....have nothing left except mismatched bikinis. I have bought from the sales at Land's End. They might have these at some Sears stores. What I like about the Land's End suits is that the comments from people that have bought the suits are very reliable about size.

Schoifmom Posted September 2, 2010 #9 Share Posted September 2, 2010 If you are plus sized, try avenue.com. All of their suits are on clearance right now and there is a coupon code for 50% off clearance prices. Just stay off the site for a while ... I'm trying to check out and the site is bogged down ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up two pairs of shorts, two sundresses AND a tankini... total including shipping was less than $40. I'm a happy girl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
