I am currently getting ready to go on my vacation. I am super excited because I am going to Kalahari for Colossalcon next week. Within this, I realized that I needed to buy a swimsuit or two and I have realized that swimsuit shopping is a complete hassle. Whenever I have shopped for swimsuits in the past, I honestly ended up going to somewhere like Kmart. However the nearest Kmart went out of business, so I wanted to check out some swimsuits online. Let me tell you guys, when you are on a budget... It can be hard to find stuff that looks cute, but is something I'd be comfortable wearing in public. I want to say the last time I even went swimming was like 2011 and clearly I am out of the loop on swimsuit shopping because shopping online for swimsuits is very unfortunate. So I wanted to share with you guys 4 reasons why swimsuit shopping sucks online.
The top half of my body does not match the bottom half.
Swimsuits come in small, medium, large, extra large, and so on. However the problem with this is that a woman may need a medium sized bottom and a large sized top if she has bigger breasts, which means you maybe stuck buying two of the same swimsuit if you want them to match just because your top half of your body does not exactly measure up with the bottom half of your body.
The affordable modest swimsuits are mostly ugly and the cuter ones are ridiculously expensive.
I am a college student who is on a budget. Do not get me wrong, there were some cute inexpensive swimsuits on Amazon and even other websites but they would not have looked nice on me in my opinion or they had horrible reviews. I saw a few gorgeous swimsuits on a variety of websites like Forever 21 and 6PM that had a decent amount of coverage that I wanted, but they were in the $60+ range which unfortunately sucked considering I was planning on buying two swimsuits.
