    I just went to La Vie En Rose Aqua and did really well there. They have sizing in XL, for those of us with generous bust lines. Most of the tops tie in the back, so the sizing is really for cups, not body. There was a teeny skinny (stacked) girl in the store & she was trying on XL. Must have been harder for her being a size 2 in an XL!

    I don't know if you'd find that store in the US, but if you are making a trip North, check your mall for this store, lots of selection and pricing under $40 per piece. I bought on sale, some as low as $8 each piece. (Hey, I will wear mine at home, so I bought both)

    We live about an hour and half or so from Windsor. Do you know if there is one around there?

    eBay!

    Sarah, try eBay. Tons of selection, every brand known to man, I'm sure every shape and size can be found there. Just be careful buying cheap suits from China. They look great in the pictures, but are not good quality fabric and do not fit well. I gambled on a couple, but ended up sending them to the Sally Ann unworn. Stick with better brands like Janzen.

    Obviously, with eBay you can't try before you buy, but check the online size charts on manufacturer's websites for the suits you are looking at on eBay.

    Good luck with your shopping! All we wear at TTR all day is swimwear, so it's important to get suits you really like!

    in Ohio as well... I got 2 suits from dangerous curves, with coupon codes I found online I didnt pay more than 25.00 per suit... another site I found is yandy.com... lots of clearance items. I am able to wear most of their "one size fits most" except for being a bit too short... I average a size 6-8... but they do have a plus size link with very cute options as well!

    Victoria secrets usually have sales online on swimwear and they have some nice suits. Not sure what you are looking for but Malibu strings will probably have 30% off after Christmas. Both have decent shipping time and never had a problem, even with returns.

    This is your lucky day. There is one in Windsor and has a whole section of swimwear. It is located at Devonshire Mall. They also have a lingerie department. Hope this helps .

    Thank you for suggesting them! Unfortunately they don't ship to the US from online yet. However, their customer service people are absolutely wonderful!! I found some very cute things both on sale and not (love the sale prices) that I really like. They are checking to see if the Windsor store has them. So, looks like the husband and I are making a trip to Canada. Probably on New Years Eve, so then we can just party while we are there :)

    You would be hard pressed to find a better source than Yandy.com.
    Search for Chica Rica. They have a number of different top styles, bottoms styles from Full to Brazilian, to Scrunch, to Thong all in matching colors. I commonly buy one top and 3 bottoms for the Mrs.
    They have sizes (not just one size fits most) and are of reasonable quality comparable to Victoria's Secret suits.
    Define "Curvy" a bit better and I might be able to get you an exact size. I have been known to do a bit of Diesel Fitting in my day...... :)
