I'm going to the beach for my honeymoon and scared to death about wearing a swimsuit. With all the bouncing young bikinis, I'm more likely to hole myself up in the hotel room the whole time.
What can I wear that will catch my new hubby's eye?
I'm 5"6", 110lbs, so I have the SHAPE to wear just about anything but I'm 39yrs old and have had 4children (nursed them all) and tho I only wear a 34B, I need FULL ARMORED SUPPORT from one side to the other (you know what I mean). And tho I'm thin, I have stretch marks all the way up to my belly button so I certainly can't wear a bikini!! But I want something sexy.
What can I do? Suggestions? I'm just about ready to bag the beach honeymoon!

Victoria's Secret has a lot of Sexy, yet mature one piece bathing suits or even a tankini (if you did want a two piece); the only problem is that you can only order their bathing suits either through their catalog or on-line. But I defiantly think that you could find something perfect, sexy, and yet you would still be comfortable in.
You're very slender, so don't be self conscious, your new husband obviously already loves you for you, and I'm sure that he finds you very sexy!
I'm not sure what your new husband's eye color is but these are some of the bathing suits that I thought would suit you well...

You should never be ashamed of your body! Just think of all the women that would kill for it! I would say you can wear a bikini but if you're self concious about your stretch marks, wear a wrap around thingy--(sarong-is that what it's called?). Those cover the tummy and hips but are still sexy. I would suggest a top that ties around the neck and the back. This lets you have control over how tight your top is but also how "perky" you are. Does that make sense? It supports your chest more--perks them up! I really like old navy bikini's for that very reason!

Buy a tankini - that has an under wire built in. The bottom part goes up high enough that it will hide the stretch markes and the top goes anywhere from your mid drift or the whole way down to the bottoms. I think these suits are very flattering and usually the top has underwires and push up support in them.
Congratulations too!

How about one of those bikinis with shorts as a bottom rather than the typical bikini bottoms. Also, it's hard to find but there are swimsuits (even bikinis) with good support up top. I have that same issue so I try to find something with full coverage. I even though once about taking a bra and simply sewing cute material over it to use as a bikini top.
How about something like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000MCF2BI/ref=dp_bb_a/103-4455264-0861469?ie=UTF8&redirect=true&condition=new%2F

Go shopping!!! There are a lot of cute 2 peice suits that dont show your belly. There are also a lot of sexy 1 pc suits out there. Try Marshalls first and then go to Macy's if you don't find anything. Good Luck and Congrats!!

don't be crazy!!! you're man's in love with you right?!! so get yourself a nice tankini - has the coverage of a one piece but the vertsatility of a bikini - you can 'roll it up' when you're catching your tan!!! he's sure to find you sexy all throughout the honeymoon whatever you wear!!! what is NOT sexy is being insecure and worrying about the '20 somethings in bikinis - trust me - have you seen some of them? they're not all that!!! go have fun and don't ditch the beach honeymoon!! they're so romantic!! Congrats and good luck!

Tankini! get one that has cups/underwire...and i prefer the halter style. the tankini also covers your middriff area
i have the same issue..
im 5'5/160lbs and sure as hell im not skinny though..but i have stretch marks..and im a 38DD after having a kid.
i spent quite a bit for a good bathing suit from a local swim shop. expect to pay good money

try a one pice, in black and white, with a low neckline or some type of fashionable cut. something unuasual and charming, like backless or a halter. only someone slim and mature like you could pull off a one piece. the circle between the breasts, which pulls the swimsuit together..such as nicole richi's bathing suits are really in right now
