Good Family Living: Modest Swimsuit - Vintage by ModCloth

As most of you have likely experienced, the chore of finding a swimsuit is a dreaded, daunting task that is usually accompanied by a bit of damage to your self image, not to mention your pocket-book. Well ladies.....those days are OVER! (what? yeah right! Google brought me here? Nicole has lost her mind....again?! eyes rolling into the back of your head....)

For REAL!! May I introduce ModCloth, an online boutique that caters to....well, everyone! They carry everything from dresses and jewelry to hats and shoes, but for this post I will focus on their swimsuits!

!!!SWIMSUITS, SWIMSUITS, SWIMSUITS!!!

Modest (or not), flattering, something for everyone! What are you looking for? A post-baby suit? A swimsuit for a blossoming pre-teen? (That's me!) Something that flatters an A-Plus sized figure? (That's me too!) Something RETRO, playful, sexy (oh, ladies....just send your daughter to her room if she is still virtuous, pure, and WAY TOO YOUNG to care about that last description.) real vintage, new vintage, or Elegant? Elegant? No.Joke. Enter swimsuit #1- the elegant Esther Williams:

🎶 She wore blue.....velvet...🎶 Um, yeah. I know, right? The craziest part about this suit (which also comes in black, mint, and green velvet) is the RAVE REVIEWS! People love it, it holds up in the pool and ocean, isn't too hot, doesn't crush. It's simply STUNNING! Oh, and did I mention that it's less than $100? Yep! In fact, out of all of the swimsuits ModCloth offers, only a few are priced over $100. And all of our favorites are less.

CUE FASHION SHOW!!!!

Now, so that no one reading this post raises their eyebrows, calls the bishop, or hops online and into their favorite anti-Mormon chat room......The picture in my header IS the Salt Lake City Temple: of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ and I do my best to follow HIS doctrine, which includes latter-day standards of modesty as a means of showing respect for our bodies, which are a temple of our Spirit, and thus, sacred. I have never and will never dress my girls in a bikini. It is a choice that Kurt and I made when our firstborn, Eden, was an infant. For our family, it is about obedience, as outlined in the For Strength of Youth pamphlet. Are babies exempt from standards of modesty? No! A body is sacred, period. For more information, feel free to click any of the highlighted phrases in this paragraph, you will be redirected to the official website of the LDS church.

My decision to include ALL of the available options for this fabulous Swimsuit (Eden's choice for this summer) is to illustrate that ModCloth has something for everyone!! If you want my vote....choose to err on the side of Virtue.

Below you will find some of my favorites, and remember...enter ModCloth via my personal link for $15 off of the swimsuit, or dress, or bag of your choice! My families pocket-book THANKS YOU!!
