Beachwear

[Cherrypippin]

I'm off on my first beach holiday since having dc, I need new swimwear, cover ups and beach bag. I'm a size 16-18 5ft 8 and have awful skin particularly on my arms due to psorasis so tend to cover up as much as I can. However I'm determined not to let my size and skin ruin my holiday so what should I buy I'm completely clueless budget is about £200

I was about to start a similar thread. My problem area is my thighs-they're pretty wobbly,just wondered how to cover them-sarongs I suppose?

I'm planning on buying some long cover ups-don't know where from though.

Well,I've been helpful!

Toast has some very nice kaftans in the sale at the moment www.toa.st/uk/category/sale+womens+beachwear/womens+beachwear.htm

As a fellow psoriasis sufferer - don't hide your arms away, you may well find sunshine is the best cure for it. Mine is always best in the summer, enjoy your holiday

I bought a beach bag from bhs for £7. It's a huge mesh bag, so it's really lightweight and practical for carrying around the kids stuff.
