HELP! Bathing suits for HM

DH and I are going on our belated HM to Jamaica in March. I need to find some bathing suits but I need some help sticking to a couple of points:

1. I really cant spend more than 50 bucks per bathing suit

2. I'm 31. I need something thats still bikini, but more classy cougar bikini than 13 year old hoochie bikini.

Places I have looked already: Target, VS (too expensive), Nordstrom Rack. At Target all my old lady jiggly bits were hanging out of the suits. It was not pretty.

Does anyone have any good suggestions for me? please?

Old Navy? I've had some from there that covered more than you would think.

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

I found a VS bottom new on ebay that said newlywed on the behind in blue sequins. It was a white bottom. You can go to target and get a white top...or just order a white top from VS...some are on sale right now.

Actually a few bathing suits are onsale now at VS due to their semi-annual sale.

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

sometimes VS has sales online - i know you said it's too expensive, but i found some great ones there for like $25-30 during a sale

i would also suggest Old Navy - i've had some luck there in the past.

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

Thanks everyone! Maybe I'll hit up Old Navy today and check out the VS sales. I just don't want to break the bank on bathing suits, ya know?

Maybe I'll increase my limit a little if I can't find anything

Thanks ladies!

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

I got 2 nice bathing suits from Victoria's secret. I think that they were about $40 each and I think they were on sale too. But they were true to size and definitely the best quality suits I've ever bought! Jiggles and bumps were secured in well!

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

I agree about VS! I've never spent more than 50 on their suits because i always get the ones on sale.

And they have different 'coverages' so not everything is itty bitty

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

My favorite bathing suits are actually from Target!! They're the Mossimo brand, and I find they are better quality than the VS ones. Definitely less than $50 per bikini, too.

Re: HELP! Bathing suits for HM

I got a basic black bottom from Old Navy and then got a ton of fun tops at H&M! They were super cheap and very cute! Don't know if they will have them now though!
