Today on Zulily they are having a SPANX sale that includes swimwear for up to 55% off retail.
I spied this very pretty one-piece SPANX suit for $74.99 (which is the price of all their suits). I realize that may seem expensive, but so is not having a suit and watching your kids play in the pool from the sidelines.
I think swim suits are one of the items where is okay to pay extra – because if you don’t feel comfortable, you aren’t going to get in with your kids or go as often.
