Can you find me some swim wear?

Swimwear is needed as we are going to centre parcs soon.

I can't even decide what to buy - swimsuit, tankini or bikini Confused

I'm 5foot 2, size 8 top and 10ish bottom. I have a 30dd chest and a long body but short legs. Hmm my tummy is a bit wibbly and rounded with a CS overhang.

Where should I start?
I think I'll need something fairly robust for messing about with the dc in the pool/ slides.
Would I be best to hide the stomach in a cossie or brave out a bikini?
Is a tankini the way forward? Or will I forever be hoiking the top down as there may well be an annoying bit of squishy tummy trying to escape. Blush

What I want is a magic formula to tell me what style to buy and then be pointed in the right direction! :)

At the risk of being flamed - you could look at Boden. I got a new cozie from there and it fits really nicely in the body (it has secret support), so I feel supported. It's not perfect in the cup (I'm a 30DD), but I'm happy with it. this is mine (the one the wifey is wearing in the pic), but it is a bit retro, which I love. I like that I have a bit of cleavage with it too. However, I don't think there's any risk of a boob malfunction in it!

I'm a size 10, if you're not sure and have the time, hold out, as Boden often have free delivery and free returns so then would be a good non-comitment time to try.

Worth a look anyway!
