Last seen in the backseat of my suv... I could strangle my kids for potentially kicking it out the door while getting in! I bought it at Target a couple of years ago and it was just perfect... fit fine, covered the things I needed it to.

It looked like this but not with the same price tag!

The new style they sell at Target doesn't appeal to me with the ring in the center

Anyone seen a tankini top like this with the drawstrings on the sides... with tank style straps ... not halter or racerback. I just want my darn top back... uugh!!!!!

Thanks for any suggestions!

Ugh. I lost the bottoms of my suit last year. I left while trying to leave in a rush when DD was throwing a huge fit. :hopmad:

I could never find them and couldn't find any to match the top I still had. Like you, I loved the top because it had the tank style straps.

I just bought a new suit at ON which is OK, but it has the halter style back which kind of drives me crazy sometimes. Oh well.

Maybe this from Lands End:

Oops. I forgot you mentioned that you wanted drawstrings on the sides... those seem to be tough to find. I'll keep on the lookout. Good luck!

This is similar- it has the cinched sides with the strings, and tank straps. But not v-neck. Does that matter? Its on sale...

ETA: just realized it only comes in sizes 14 and 16...and its navy not black. oops

There's also this one, and it comes in many sizes, but its not tanks style straps :(

Navy would work for me... I wonder if the size 14 would be way too big for me... hmmm. I would rather it be loose than tight... but I am only a B cup. I need to find a soft tape measure and check my bust in inches and see if I would be swimming in it or not! THANKS!
