MiniBoden swimsuit sizing question

[MommyAllison]

I am having the hardest time finding a swimsuit that I love for DD. I really like the Girly swimsuit by Boden but am trying to decide which size to order. If I follow the sizing chart, will it be correct? I have been hearing that the Girly suit runs TTS or big...I will either order 18-24 or 2-3y. Also, should I get the green dot or the strawberry print? DD is blonde and gets a bit tan in the summer. I think the green would be close to her eye color, but the strawberry is so cute! Ah, decisions, decisions! TIA!

I'm looking at the same suit for my DD and am also trying to decide on sizing so I'm not sure I'm much help there. Think about how long you want/need it to fit and that might help. Also, if it's a little too big, you can always tie the straps in the back with a shoe lace to make it a little smaller until she grows into it. I did that a lot last year.

My DD is 2y8m and 36.5 in tall. She has grow room in the 2-3, as the straps are still a little loose. I say strawberries all the way!

TTS or just a little big sounds right to me. I bought the strawberry one for my DD, who is about 38" and 32 pounds, and the 3/4 fit well with a bit of growing room. It's really cute!

Thanks everyone! I will definitely get the 18-24 month suit. The 2-3y would have been enormous on my DD! She is 5 inches shorter than your DD, Annie - the suit would have been a dress on her! :) Thanks again!
