A new swimsuit for my summer vacation

I'm going on vacation soon - going to spend some time in a warmer place (lucky me....). A place that is warm enough to make you want to spend most of your days wearing only a bathing suit, enjoying the sun, the sand and the water. Sounds like heaven, doesn't it...

Unfortunately, before I go I still have a task of getting myself accessorized for the beach - i.e. buying a new swimsuit.

I hate that process, especially the fitting, when I usually find myself locked up inside a fitting room with zillion kinds of swimsuits scattered around, trying to squeeze into each one of them and ending up with the same determination to lose a few pounds ASAP.

In order to minimize the frustration, I decided (in addition to starting a new diet...) to do some research on the web first.

I found out that Victoria's Secret has a wide selection of swimsuits presented on the website in a very helpful way.

All their swimsuits are divided into several classifications like : category, designers, trends, collections and top types.

The Miracle Bra collection and the Magicsuit collection under the one-piece category have some nice swimsuits like the Miracle Bra Push-up - $72 or the Firm control crisscross shaping - $130 (pictures above).

I also browsed Macy's web site and found it very helpful as well. Along with classifying by swimsuit types and brands, they added a Swim Fit Guide to help us find the right swimsuit that flatters us the most.

I checked it out and found some nice pieces to look for in store, like the Anne Cole Solid One-Piece Swimsuit - $78 which looks very simple but I think It's the basic one, you always need beside the fancy one.

For a more luxurious look the Calvin Klein Solid Pleat-Front One-Piece Swimsuit - $94 can be a good option.

I'm not done yet. I'll update you after some more foot and web research.
