Hi Jill,
It is impossible to tell what colors look best on you, with out a good color analysis. Your right colors will be the same for clothes as well as bathing suits. Finding out your colors is best if you can find a good image consultant to do them for you. Otherwise, you could try it yourself by getting a copy of Color Me Beautiful.

This is all great, but what’s the best color if I’m very fair?

Hi Sandra,
Yes, when you are on the short side, high cut legs are a must, as long as your legs are still in good shape. We love having a little heel or sandal with a wedge to give some hight and length to the leg! Great tip!

I am sort of “short”. I find the tiny skirt with tank a very cute and appropriate style. Mine is a black bottom and wildly bright blue patterned top from Land’s End that “crunches” in the front, to highlight my still-high, yet smallish breasts. I think short gals look better in high cut legs or well-coordinated colors/cuts of a two-pieced look. Nothing like swim suit apparel to motivate me to shed pounds or lift weights.

You can wear a skirt that matches your suit for everything but actually dipping into the water. That is classy for socializing.

Heels, definitely.

Hi F. Plvan,
One nice thing about Landsend is that you can pick the top separate from the bottom…because, who is ever the same size in both places!!!

The best place for swimsuits is still Landsend.com.

Thanks for the swimsuit help! The smallest size the Soma suits came in is an 8 so that probably wouldn’t work. I had not thought of Newport News though. Then, that led me to Spiegel. Both have tons of great suits, many with helpers like tummy control and bust enhancers. I have three I am planning to order. I don’t like the $17 shipping charge, but I signed up for their emails so maybe they will have a special on shipping or a discount. You rescued me!
Thanks again- Ellen
