Jungle Jane Posted January 24, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Does anyone know where I can get a very plain white 1 piece? I have combed the internet and am coming up empty. I had one and wore it to death. I wear it with different bottoms, some call them swim shorts, some call them board shorts, but they're shorter than real board shorts...all of my shorts have some white in them so I like to have the white 1 piece to match them all. I'd like it to have good bust support, come up sort of high in the back, not stop just above the butt crack like some do! Like I said I had one but I got it about 4-5 yrs ago and darned if I can remember where I got it. I'd like not to pay more than $100 either...probably asking too much but I figured I'd throw it out there. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happysinglemom Posted January 24, 2008 #2 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Boston Proper Newport News and Speigel all have white tanks shown on their sites right now. Some may be fancier than others...but I saw at least a couple of fairly plain ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jane Posted January 24, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Thanks HappySingleMom! I never thought of checking Newport News because whenever I look at their catalog I think you must have to be a supermodel to wear their clothes or at least a very tall woman, all of their styles seem to be made for looooooooooooooong legs, which at 5'2", I do not have. I did find THEE perfect suit: http://www.newport-news.com/shop/product_single.aspx?style_id=28267096&index=59&gp_coll_id=2012&gp_cat_id=7505&nav_cat_id=7507&category_id=4835 I had seen that exact suit in another catalog for around $100 but for some reason it was only $25 and I was able to find a promotion code at http://www.retailmenot.com/view/newport-news.com for 20% off and free shipping, just $1.95 handling so for $21.95 I have a great looking suit coming! It says it will come within 7 days-cross fingers because I leave in 9! I just hope it's not a piece of junk. Anyone familiar with Newport News' quality? Wonder why it was so cheap... Thanks again HSM!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocngypz Posted January 24, 2008 #4 Share Posted January 24, 2008 The biggest difference between a $25 bathing suit and a $100 bathing suit is the thickness of the outer material and the lining. With white you need to be concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RQINFL Posted January 24, 2008 #5 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Here are a few http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=3H-221124&page=1&cgname=OSSWMOPSZZZ&rfnbr=158 http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=3H-209788&page=1&cgname=OSSWMOPSZZZ&rfnbr=158 http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=3H-200269&page=1&cgname=OSSWMOPSZZZ&rfnbr=158 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jane Posted January 24, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted January 24, 2008 It says double lined and the cups are sort of shirred so should be fine on top, as for the bottom, I'll have some cute swim shorts over it anyway. I know what you mean tho, I have seen some serious headlights, butt dimples and butt crack on women in white suits before! Hopefully that won't be me! I do plan on bringing other suits in case it doesn't work out, just wanted to wear the shorts too and needed a white suit for that. Thanks for all the suggestions!

Prinycesa07 Posted January 24, 2008 #7 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Ive had a couple of newport news suits and i always thought the quality was just fine, if not really good. Ive also had victoria secret suits and was very disappointed in their quality. I loooove the suit you picked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLLund Posted January 24, 2008 #8 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Some Newport News things aren't great quality .. but I always buy my suits from them .. They are great quality and usually very slimming !! By the way .. I have never had orders from them that didn't arrive when they say they will. Great looking suit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
