Celebrate National Swimsuit Confidence Week Lands’ End Giveaway

by 646 Comments

This week all week long is National Swimsuit Confidence Week. Last year was the first year for me to have swimsuit confidence. I received a swimsuit from Lands’ End and I LOVED it. I loved how it sucked me in everywhere and I think it made me look great, and I posted the photo of myself for all the world to see. Ok, just the few of you that come by and visit my blog. So when Lands’ End contacted me this year and asked me to participate in National Swimsuit Confidence Week I had to say yes.

Starting earlier today, Curvy Girl Guide hosted and will be hosting for the rest of the week a twitter chat with Lands’ End about swimsuit confidence. Not only are they hosting the conversation but they are also sharing their swimsuit photos along with me. Or rather, I’m posting mine along with theirs. See:

Lands End Swimsuit

I picked out Women’s Regular All-Over Control Slender Grecian Swimsuit, and I think it makes me look taller and slimmer! Even though most of you may look at me and think I don’t have anything to worry about by showing my picture of myself in a swimsuit, and even though I did it once last year, and even though I even vlogged from the shower two weeks ago, I’m still very self conscious of how I look. It’s all about how each of us perceive ourselves and that’s why I’m really grateful to Lands End for hosting National Swimsuit Confidence Week. They are reminding us all that it doesn’t matter what shape our body is. It’s how we hold ourselves up and what we think of ourselves that matters. The 21 women form Curvy Girl Guide are all real women just like me of all different body shapes. All of them are proudly sporting their Lands’ End swimwear helping to build swimsuit confidence for women this summer at the beach and I’m now ready to confidently join them!

Lands’ End makes a great quality bathing suit with the ability to hold you in in all the right places, and since I have a bathing suit from last year too, I can tell you that they hold up to the test of time.

You all have the opportunity to participate in National Swimsuit Confidence Week too, and you can even win some very cool prizes.

  8. I’ll wear any in IL. I’m originally from Cali… so there is was harder to feel beautiful… but here people are more forgiving. Mostly 2 piece!

  23. I like tankini’s. My post baby belly doesn’t work in one piece or binkini bathing suits:)

    Reply

  34. I always were cover-ups with my swimsuits unless I am in the water. I feel comfortable wearing any swim suit that is not a thong!

    Reply

  61. I don’t feel comfortable wearing ANY swimsuit out in public. Only at a secluded beach or pool do I pull out my one piece,

    Reply

  71. I feel comfortable wearing just about any bathing suit in public… but I tend to stick to one-pieces for the benefit of those around me. LOL I do own a couple of bikinis that I rock though 🙂

    Reply

  78. I am extremely bashful and shy when it comes to wearing a swimsuit! I like to cover up as much as possible. But I see that Lands End has a lot to choose from to make everyone feel confident! Thanks!

    Reply

  80. I think my grandmother had one with long loose pants and a short sleeved top that came down past her hips. That would work for me. Seriously, I’m most comfortable in a one piece and I’d love to have one that would do some of that “holding in” stuff.

    Reply

  91. Maybe I can find a suit for me at Lands End, currently my fav. swimsuit consists of shorts to knees and a big t-shirt. I’d love to win so maybe I could look at getting a swim suit that I could feel comfortable in.

  98. I feel comfortable wearing a tankini or a modest one-piece suit out in public. Anything that covers me and is flattering will do.

    Reply

  100. I wore a bikini top with boy short bottoms last year, this year I might just go with a retro one piece suit

    Reply

  102. I love that color on you… you look fantastic!
    I totally agree with you when you say it’s how YOU feel you look and that is what Land’s End is all about, swimsuits that make you feel comfortable so you have confidence and you sure look confident AND beautiful!
    (BTW, I loved when you vlogged in the shower – you were too cute!)

    Reply

  103. I got a tankini top and matching swim shorts this year. It is amazingly cute, holds up the girls (!!) and I actually feel comfortable wearing it in public! 🙂

    Reply

  109. I like to wear a modest tankini top with a swim mini to cover the tops of my thighs.
    I love the new lands end shell beach collection.

    Reply

  117. 2 pc…need it due to different top and bottom measures. LOVE the ones that look like shorts and a tank top.

    Reply

  121. My body isn’t perfect, but I wear a bikini anyway. It is more comfortable because it is less “wet swimsuit” sticking to me when I get out of the pool. I’m not going to let not being “in perfect shape” keep me from being comfortable and having fun!

    Reply

  139. Because of my ginormous “ladies,” I always wear a halter top type swimsuit. And I usually wear surf shorts instead of a bikini bottom.

    And kudos to you for posting your pic in a bathing suit! 🙂

    Reply

  140. I like a one-piece with a little bit of something exciting on the back!

  143. I dress modestly and I prefer a one piece suit with good support. Love the swimsuit you are wearing.

    Reply

  149. i’d feel most confident in a vintagey style swimsuit with lots of rouching and a bit of ruffles!

    Reply

  162. I only feel comfortable if i’m wearing a swimsuit that has coverage. I love suits like tankinis, that have skirted bottoms. My 2 children took a toll on my skin and body!

  195. I don’t feel comfortable wearing one out- I’m a plus sized woman. I’m very uncomfortable in a swimsuit but Gracie loves to swim so I have to take her. I wear one with a skirt thingy on the bottom. It’s not long, but it gives just a little bit more coverage.

    Reply

  203. I like the tankini. I prefer more coverage on top and like the low cut bottoms.

  205. Mine has a scoop neck Tank-with sort of boy shorts Bottoms. I am under weight, and it does make me un-confident.Not many styles work! I want lots of coverage!

    Reply

  216. I am comfortable wearing any style, it is the other people who aren’t comfortable with it 🙂 I am not flab-phobic and would let it all hang out if the masses would just relax–sigh…

    BTW, you look great in that suit–you chose well !

  234. the swim suit that I wear out in public is a one piece suit with bust control as I am rather top heavy. i also try to get my suit with a criss cross back as it gives my arms more movement while swimming.

    Reply

  237. I am very comfortable in a tankini

    Thank you for hosting this giveaway

  244. I like to wear the tankini type with modest bottoms. I lost all my extra weight but my tummy is too scarred from operations to show off.

    Reply

  246. I personally am no longer comfortable wearing any swimsuit in public 🙁

    However, I would love to win the GC so that my daughter could buy a new swimsuit. She goes swimming quite a bit with my 2 grandchildren and she recently mentioned that she needed a new swimsuit. She would be very comfortable (and look good) wearing a one-piece suit like you are modeling in the picture. By the way you look fabulous in that suit! Thank you for a chance to win.

  259. I normally go with a one piece that gives a bit of a retro design with halter neck and ruching. Thanks so much for the chance! 🙂

  308. I just found a swimsuit that I am comfortable wearing – It is a one piece suit that has a skirt that starts from the high waist and covers my most problem area – hips. I really love this suit!

  337. I feel comfortable in anything at the beach. You always have to remember that there are people who probably feel worse about what they are wearing than you do, and they’re still doing it.

  350. Really, I am not fond of any swimsuit, but I do like a halter type one piece the best. The type with a kind of criss cross bodice is good.

  371. That one is always hard. I tend to go back and forth between tankini and one-piece. It totally depends on the suit.

    Reply

  380. Since I have gained some weight after being unemployed for so long, I am not comfortable in ANY swimsuit right now! But I have ALWAYS been a one-piece kinda girl — even when I WAS thin!

  383. I feel fairly confident in a one piece if it has enough support in the bust and a tummy control panel.

    Reply

  395. My fave suit is a tankini top with shorts bottom. Convenience of a two piece yet plenty of coverage. The most important thing about any swimsuit is proper fit. Without that, it’s never comfortable.

    Reply

  399. I feel comfortable in a one-piece swimsuit with lots of control. I like the Lands End styles. I need to get one. thanks!

    Reply

  406. I acually have four colors of the Land’s End Grecian swimsuits! I love the style.

  419. Do they still have those frilly swimsuits from the 1920’s ? You know the one that cover from neck to knees.

    Reply

  422. Definitely a one piece or very modest tankini for me! I love Lands end suits, though, I have a couple and you can’t beat the quality/

    Reply

  423. I feel most comfortable in public in a tankini. Since it is 2 pieces I usually feel like it fits better than a one piece while keeping me covered.

  454. I’m most comfortable in a swimsuit that has some ‘control’ to it! Most suits have not enough coverage support at the top, but when I get a suit that fits the top of me, it is baggy at the bottom!!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    Reply

  485. I only feel comfortable in a swimsuit that fully covers me. When I was younger I had a much better body and wore a bikini but my figure and my age prohibit that now 🙂

  494. Unfortunately, I don’t feel comfortable wearing any kind of swim wear in public because I have stretch marks. I lost a lot of weight, but even though I wasn’t that overweight before I got horrible stretch marks. All my sisters have had children and they don’t have marks like I do. Why?!
