Bathing suit for baby girl...

LisaBelle · June 17th, 2004, 08:33 AM

All the ones I see in the stores are bikinis for baby girls. I did buy one for Carolyn (its too cute... Daddy doesn't like it for his girl though

) but I can't find any cute one-piece bathing suits. They are usually all really ugly ones or patriotic ones.

Anyone know where I can find a cute bathing suit (and not too expensive... not more than $20)? Thanks in advance!

I always had lots of luck at Target, and I got Caroline's bathing suit for this year at Kohl's - pink sparkles with a cute little skirt too, only $12!

Check gap or old navy. They usually have a few one piece suits.

Man, you aren't kidding. I've checked the Gap, JC Penney, Old Navy and Children's Place websites and nada.

Janelle's one piece is from the disney store from last season, I don't know if they have any this year...we usually stick to bikinis for her.

Nocona · June 17th, 2004, 10:25 AM

Good idea, Jillian. I found these on their website (everything's on clearance):

Thanks girls!!

I also checked Target, Old Navy (where we got her bikini), Gap, etc.... Forgot about the Disney Store!! We have one in our mall so I'll try that first before paying shipping!

I bought a cute one off the clearance rack at Gymboree. I also just (yesterday!) ordered a cute one from Old Navy--its stars and stripes!

Here's what I ordered--only $9.25!

Sarah, we have that same swimsuit for Ali for the pool party we are going to on the 4th. We swim everyday and I couldn't pass up a cute suit for less than $10.

LisaBelle · June 17th, 2004, 02:26 PM

Nocona, thanks for posting that... I ordered the first one (they didn't have it at the store afterall

)

I got this one at Gap when Madelynn was a baby.

I love the Flap Happy brand. They usually sell in boutiques or at Talbot's kids. I get them off Ebay for a steal. They have a built in diaper that works great....no need for disposable swim diapers. Plus, they wash well and look so cute!

They are on sale right now from Talbot's kids...great price!

The Osh Kosh outlet near me had a lot of one pieces, and they were on sale for under $8. The only thing is they run really small, so I actually got a 2t, and Courntey is only 9 months.

Karri · June 17th, 2004, 11:03 PM

Hmn..my Old Navy had several one piece suits.

Jenn · June 17th, 2004, 11:32 PM

I have to second what Colleen said. I love the brand that they sell at Talbot's. I also don't like bikinis on little girls so I'm usually limited to where I can buy.

Pigglystix · June 18th, 2004, 01:48 AM

Yep, we found a bunch at the outlet stores yesterday...at Children's Place I think, Little Me and Osh Kosh.

Melissa · June 20th, 2004, 10:12 AM

We bought the same stars and stripes suit for Katie! It was too cute to pass up. We also got her a floaty suit and one other from amazon.com.

Marcella · June 20th, 2004, 10:48 AM

My MIL got Amelia a really cute one at TJ Max (a discount type store). I also saw some cute ones at Target. I refuse to have my 13 month old daughter wear a bikini, so I'm glad I found a few cute one pieces.

Tori Lynne · June 22nd, 2004, 07:52 AM

Abby's suit is from Talbot's and I really love it! It's the same one in the link that Colleen posted.
I wish they would make one peices with a snap crotch though! It's hard to pull that wet bathing suit off of her and change that nasty diaper!

LisaBelle · June 30th, 2004, 08:21 AM

Look at all these bathing beauties!!

Carolyn's bathing suit came in the mail the other day and I had her try it on... I love it and apparently, so does she
