Help me find a swimsuit!

[jvbucks]

We are going to the coast next month and they have a pool at the hotel. I am looking for some alternatives to the standard, Old Navy, Gymbo, Gap, swimsuits out there. It has to be 1 peice (I think 2 peice looks too skimpy on toddlers). I don't really want to spend more than $25 for one. I'm considering the new wildflower lily one from Gymbo, but thought I'd ask for alternatives.

Oh, and my DD would wear a 2 or 3T (depending on how they run). Thanks!

Lands End has some cute one pieces and tankinis:

I love the swim suits at LLBean and Lands End. They have both one pieces and tankinis. I personally prefer the tankinis since they make for easier swim diaper changes if necessary (this was always an issue for us) but the ones at LE are definitely not skimpy.

Janie and Jack had some cute ones and the boys were on sale so I assume so are the girls.

I was at the Oshkosh outlet the other day and they had marked down swimsuits to $5! There were only few left of those though. They also had other good stuff in the $3 and $5 racks.

Kate Mack is a brand of swimsuits that I love. Best Dressed Child carries a few of them, I recently bought the "poolside princess" one piece at a local boutique for next summer.

I also saw in the CWD catalog a couple of cute Le Top suits and coverups.
Here is a link to the one I liked (note in the catalog the colors are much more pink, online it looks a bit off):

I have also gotten a couple of suits from the Sweet Potatoes brand and there many cute ones by them as well.
