Swimsuit Confidence with Lands' End

The last time I was willingly photographed in a bathing suit, I was very, very tan and wearing a neon yellow bandeau bikini. No, I did not dig up the evidence, don't worry. It was the mid-'80s and I was barely a teenager. Pre-kids, pre-hips, pre-thyroid wackiness.

I am not a gigantic fan of being photographed, in general, much less in a bathing suit, but when I came across Amy and Nicole talking on Twitter about posting pictures of themselves in Lands' End swimwear to support body image and National Swimsuit Confidence Week , I was intrigued and inspired. It was a no-brainer that I'd want to participate, so I was glad when I received an invitation to participate. I'm still loving my non-matronly Lands' End swimdress from 2008, although thankfully it's a little too big this year. Time for a new suit to show off! I'm posting my pics in solidarity with the ladies of Curvy Girl Guide and many other fabulous bloggers who have Swimsuit Confidence.
