I’ve been thinking of buying a fun one-piece this year but just cannot find one that covers my behind. Why do designers assume that if one wants to cover part of her stomach that she must want to let her cheeks hang out?? Also, I’ve been trying on larges and extra larges and they still are too small.
If you’re feeling generous, I’m obsessed with this organization and they are raising money for the many children you’ve probably heard about in the news.
Can you believe my 10 year college reunion is next weekend? Can’t wait to see the girls! I’m sure it will be a bit different than the 5 year (note the double-fisting in the picture).
We finally gave in and bought a lightweight travel stroller for summer trips, but it will also be so nice to have a better option for the subway.
I’m surprisingly enjoying living in a small apartment, but I don’t think I could do this.
I bought some new underwear thanks to glowing recommendations from Instagram friends. Side note: I’ve been slowly getting bigger since I stopped breastfeeding and many of my old pairs don’t fit but the pregnancy ones are too big. Sigh.
Happy 5 year anniversary tomorrow to the man of my dreams!

June 1, 2018 at 9:58 amI’ve had good luck with Jcrew one piece suits! Usually can find a discount code or sale too!
Laura
June 3, 2018 at 9:04 amThanks – I saw if you are really liked there, but wasn’t sure about the coverage

June 1, 2018 at 3:57 pmIt’s a little pricey but I love this swimsuit that Profile by Gottex makes. It gives more bottom coverage than what it looks like in the picture (and it comes with straps)

Also I highly recommend the store Everything But Water for lots of swimsuit options that have coverage!

HAHA! Maybe it’s because you chose a cut-out one?

June 3, 2018 at 10:05 pmI am hating the current victoria secret underwear selection … so I am on the search for something new! Would you say that Soma’s sizes are comparable? I don’t want to order the wrong size. Can’t believe I am asking this online! 😉
Laura
June 3, 2018 at 10:16 pmLove the Soma vanishing edge that I ordered! Just make sure not to get the ones that are cut a bit higher. I usually wear a medium in Victorias secret, and ordered a small at Soma

June 4, 2018 at 11:15 amOk, the time and tru line from WALMART of all places has an adorable selection of 1 pieces with good rear coverage. Fabric is actually super nice! I got a small, it is a tad bit snug but I can see the M being too large. I am usually a 4/6 in swimsuits. Small on top/Medium on bottom if that helps!
Laura
June 4, 2018 at 1:20 pmOhh thanks!

June 4, 2018 at 11:33 amI’ve had a lot of luck with swimwear from Albion Fit. They have the cutest prints and good coverage. https://www.albionfit.com

June 4, 2018 at 1:20 pmNever shopped there – thanks!
Laura
June 4, 2018 at 1:48 pmCheck out Albion Fit online. They make gorgeous high quality one pieces that don’t leave you hanging out. I get compliments on my suit every time I wear it and my toddler can’t pull it down and expose anything!

June 6, 2018 at 8:17 amOh come on. Many people in Europe live with families of even two children in such a small apartment. 🙂
Laura
June 13, 2018 at 2:10 pmThat’s amazing, but just don’t think I could do it with two!!
Suzanne
June 12, 2018 at 2:01 pmHave you tried Modcloth? They have some cute one pieces. The ones by Esther Williams look like they have pretty good coverage.

June 13, 2018 at 2:07 pmI haven’t – thanks!!
