Can you help me figure out a not too dorky pool outfit? Here's what I'm working with:
short (petite length pants) about a size 10-12, but with a big bf-ing chest right now, measured myself yesterday using breakout bras instructions and I think I'm a 34 E or so .
I have a short sleeve and long sleeve rashguards from Athleta. I think they look pretty good, and I lke wearing them for a variety of reasons, I get cold in the water, extra sun protection, etc. Mostly I'm wearing this short sleeve one: http://athleta.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=92424&vid=1&pid=215062082
I have some swim shorts from target, and a couple regular swim bottoms that do a reasonable job on my still recovering from pregnancy belly/hip area.
What I'm unhappy with is what do wear under the rashguard. Right now I'm wearing a DD/DDD tankini from LandsEnd, that I'd like to replace: a) I don't think I'm getting enough support from it b) I don't like how it floats up, c) it sort of feels and looks like too much material under the rashguard, especially if I'm wearing the shorts.
WW you wear? A bra sized bikini top? I'm so not cut out for a bikini right now, but maybe if both pieces offer enough coverage/support it'll it'll be ok. A one piece? A different type of tankini with better support (maybe an underwire and less material). I
