I am really supportive of others - it's not you, it's the clothes. Don't worry about making you fit the clothes, make the clothes fit you. Seriously. But I still struggle to apply that same thinking to myself. REALLY? Yes, really. I know, just shake your head at me and move on.
So, I'm thinking of making a bathing suit. Maybe if one fit better and actually flattered my body I might feel more comfortable. Also, I refuse to spend $100-$150 on a cute, modest suit that will never really fit quite right. So, I'm going to do a little fabric shopping and see if I can make one for under $30.
I have a few ideas pinned to my sewing pinterest board along with some tips - just in case anyone else wants to join me in my new quest.
I was thinking something like this...
Or this...
But, since I WILL NOT do a halter top I will do something a little different. Don't get me wrong, I love the look of halter tops - on other people. But they are not flattering for me, and they just HURT!
So, do you have a favorite swim suit? Where do you like to shop for suits? Have you ever made, or thought of making, your own suit?
Later y'all!
