I may have left my string bikini days behind long ago, but I still want to look nice on the beach. If you're like me, your ideal swimwear is not only flattering and comfortable but also affordable. Take a look at some of this season's swimwear offerings; perhaps you'll find the perfect swimsuit right here.

The floral-patterned top draws attention upward, while the solid-color short skirt drapes nicely over hips and thighs. The suit comes in several size options, including D-cup and women's sizes.

It has a soft-cup bra - no underwires. The style is modern and flattering, but you can swim in this suit. It is a bit on the expensive side, but with care it will last for several years. You can wear this swimsuit to a water park or on an elegant cruise ship and feel confident that you look your best.

They offer more freedom of movement, and you can choose from various styles and sizes if, like me, your top and bottom aren't perfectly proportioned. I like the relaxed look of this swim top. It fits closely enough to be modest but gives plenty of freedom of movement. You can pair this top with L. L. Bean's BeanSport shorts (below) or with a swim skort.

They're comfortable and provide the flattering coverage many women prefer. The shorts come in three colors and are available in misses' and women's sizes.
