    Default needing a swimsuit for dd

    Know any good websites to look for one? I tried kmart, walmart, target, old navy, gap, JCP, Sears, gymboree, macy's, kohl's and can't find a nice little girl looking suit. I don't want her to look like she's prepping for the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated. I need a cute one piece - no characters unless it's elmo or minnie and I need it to be under 15.00.

    Suggestions?

    We got my dd a cute (and modest) speedo from Costco. I think it was about $11.99

    I know you said you looked at Target, the above link is the suit I got my 3 yr old for this summer. Not sure if you go to sams club, but they have some nice speedo brand suits. Sorry I don't remember the price.

    Is there still a store called Limited Too? I know my dd liked their things when she was younger. Or how about a consignment shop? You never know what you'll find there.

    swimsuits are one thing I used to splurge a little on for my dd. I would get the competition speedo or tyr (the kind that swim teams use) and get her fitted. One thing about them was that they never 'revealed' anything while bending, either in the front or riding up the back, even when she would twist and jump and splash all around. They were pricy (like 30-40 and up) but I was happy that they did their job well!

    justpeachy92- I LOVED that suit. I used the link and ordered it! I didn't see that one earlier on the site at all! I ordered a 3T - I hope it fits. My dd is almost 20 months old, but is 3 ft tall and 26 pounds. How about yours?

    To everyone else - thanks for the suggestions!
