I can not afford $255 for a bathing suit. It's extra 'cause of duties. Stupid Canada).. and the greatest thing just happened. I found it on simply beach for $100 US. Um, wow. I just bought it, and don't even care that it will get here at the end of summer.. I plan on using this one for years. Thought I'd post a link for anyone else who has been lusting over this beautiful swimsuit. <br /><br />https://www.simplybeach.com/products/Seafolly/GoddessBoylegMaillot-Black.aspx<br /><br />Tada!Chloenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-74203442986722536292010-07-24T21:31:28.492-07:002010-07-24T21:31:28.492-07:00hot hot HOT. you look amazing. i've lost all t...hot hot HOT. you look amazing. i've lost all the baby weight but still in the squishy soft phase. <br /><br />i know this is an old post but malia mills suits are fucking amazing: http://www.maliamills.com/Pages/shoponline/one-pieces.htmlHeather Maxwell Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15487361479603890707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-33964173729734148842010-06-21T09:21:20.701-07:002010-06-21T09:21:20.701-07:00Way to rock that bikini Rebecca.

I bought it last year after you tweeted about them. I LOVE it. It definitely works for those of us with curves.<br /><br />I am an H girl myself and despite always wanting to, I have not had surgery. I keep promising myself it will happen after I'm done childbearing and nursing. I, too, know what it's like to be judged by only your boobs. I've been sent to the office in high school for dressing "slutty" b/c I wore an oh so popular baby doll tee. I've been called a slut because while talking to boys in seat row behind me, my cleavage peeked out of a boat neck tee. I've been called fat despite wearing a size 6 jeans (actually a size 2 back then). I've even had parents speak to to my boss, the elementary principal, because they felt my clothes were inappropriate (knee length shift dresses) because there's no hiding H's.<br /><br />You look awesome! I'd love to be able to wear a bikini as I've NEVER dared since I grew these girls in 5th grade. You should totally rock it for all of us H's out here that want to.<br /><br />-Abby@sweetbabboohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15414489876832313768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-23567109738253085862010-05-19T13:01:41.278-07:002010-05-19T13:01:41.278-07:00Agreed- you look great, Rebecca!

I'm always impressed that you seem to have the time/energy/motivation to put make-up on all the time, and you do an amazing job at it. However, I really appreciate your keeping it real and showing us your beautiful natural face this time. Totally relatable AND adorable. <br /><br />Thank you!neysa ghttp://www.flickr.com/photos/64539095@N00/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-62699396075574906682010-05-19T07:53:23.295-07:002010-05-19T07:53:23.295-07:00http://pix.motivatedphotos.com/2009/10/7/633905021...http://pix.motivatedphotos.com/2009/10/7/633905021442642980-Thebombiscoming.jpgMajahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09736944545182766303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-29014163881187491592010-05-18T23:52:59.805-07:002010-05-18T23:52:59.805-07:00I don't know if you read all of your comments ...I don't know if you read all of your comments but... I NEED SOME OF YOUR BIG BOOBED SUPPORT. As an ex big boober, I know you've been there, done that. SO!<br /><br />I tried the target suit on.. I ordered a plus size. It was still too small for my size H boobs, and it was too big for my tiny butt. My stomach is COVERED in stretch marks from my little boy, so a two piece is sort of out unless I can find a tankini or osmething I'm loving... But THESE BOOBS!? How can I contain them, short of cutting them off?

The one ...I have a one piece and a pile of bikinis. The one piece is brown with just one strap, and in my crazy brain just screams "Look at my Beyonce Butt!!" Sadly it has absolutely no breast support, and my DDs could use it. I bought my bikini pile at a series of thrift shops. I'm about twenty pounds overweight on the BMI. I just buy them in sizes that fit. I think anyone can wear a bikini if they buy the right size, and ideally a good color/cut. I'm rockin' a little baby bump that (God willing..) will only grow larger as summer wears on. I will be flaunting that business in a bikini often. I really don't have the best "wearing less than underwear" body on the beach, but I have more self love than nearly every girl, and it shows. Self love is pretty hot in any variety of swim wear.rosiewiklundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02579704267323133235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-39141664075696179442010-05-18T17:35:49.921-07:002010-05-18T17:35:49.921-07:00Hey Rebecca,

Thank you again for another glowing referral on our E.W. suits.

While simultaneously thinking, not me, I would never expose myself in a bikini, and certainly not on my blog.<br /><br />And then this morning I did my usual naked check-out of myself in the mirror... and instead of instantly of focusing on all the bits that are "wrong", like I usually do, I was struck with the thought of, hey, I don't look so different from Rebecca (minus the boobs. I have none.)<br /><br />So thank you for posting a picture of your lovely, REAL body, and helping me to see than mine is maybe not so bad after all.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13559842630176737997noreply@blogger.com
