Where else can I get a bathing suit this time of year..

online.

I have already looked at Gap.com, OldNavy.com and Jcrew.com.

don't they realize all women are not a size 6! I am not plus size but I am not tiny. All they have left are bikinis. I usually wear a tankini...

any ideas?

newportnews.com - i think they have them year-round. Also, look for stores based in southern and southwestern states - they'll probably have them year-round also.

i found a nice one on jcpenney.com - but what is a scoop bottom? can i assume this means it is NOT full coverage?

I usually get a scoop and I have a tush! OK depending on the designer they generally have full coverage in the back but it sits low in the front. Not right under your belly button.

Here's Victoria Secret's as an example

Re: Where else can I get a bathing suit this time of year..

how about Great Shapes - they have several stores on the island. there is one in bellmore. a ton of suits, not sure of the prices though. But then again, when you find something you feel confident in, money is no object :)
