• paying for dress at NaNs -- ., 18:07:21 07/03/09 Fri
  So I set myself up to write a check at Nans in the event that we find one we like. I asked advice here and that was the majority opinion about how to pay...then I had a thought. What if the seller is from overseas? They won't take a check ...now what??

My 13 YO dd was watching news coverage of Michael's death the other day - she got a puzzled look on her face and asked "You mean Michael Jackson used to be black?!?" She had no idea - guess he's looked white her whole life. (NT) -- Sheltered kid?, 11:14:32 07/03/09 Fri
    • Similar story - back when Sr. lady dd was about 8, we were watching clips from Ed Sullivan show of Jackson 5. and I pointed Michael out to her. She got her very best "mom you're an idiot" look on her face and said "Mom, that's a black boy!" She wouldn't believe me until her dad came home & confirmed it (even then I'm not sure she bought it!)

    • I think you mean the high instep. (Arch is part of your sole, instep is along the top of the foot.) We have the same problem, just have our shoe repair guy stretch them a bit. Best shoes for high insteps are Rutherford PLUS and, believe it or not, Fays. (NT) -- Have owned 'em all, 07:18:08 07/03/09 Fri

  • Corr's have significantly more padding, in my experience. At least some of the hardshoe styles (if not all?) contain a "flexi-shank" for arch support as well. Tips are resin instead of fiberglass. (NT) -- will only wear Corr's now, 06:29:01 07/03/09 Fri

          • Sorry, your use of the word "medical" is what I was replying to. (NT) -- :-(, 05:02:13 07/03/09 Fri
  • Well -- Lilly, 05:26:06 07/03/09 Fri
    • I am so relieved to read this thread - when you're going through it you think you're the only family with this problem. My 8 yr old soln was fine up to about 6 months ago - now happens regularly.. (NT) -- cd, 07:29:06 07/03/09 Fri
  • My son wet the bed until age 11. Going away to 5th grade science camp was difficult but he managed. He literally slept like he was in a coma after being hyper all day. Problem corrected itself when he hit puberty. I sometimes wish I could sleep that deeply! (NT) -- Tired Momma, 07:44:29 07/03/09 Fri
  • What pull-ups do yall use? (NT) -- SW mom, 16:03:06 07/03/09 Fri
    • my 8yr old son uses Good Nights. They are meant for older children (even up to 135 pounds) so they absorb better. (NT) -- dry bed/wet bottom, 16:27:27 07/03/09 Fri

  This is off topic but where can you buy a swimsuit for a teenager that is a little less slutty but still pretty? I don't think I'm a prude but I'm disgusted at the cut of all the bikinis out there and not one swimsuit in sight other than very odd looking speedo team apparel.

  • Macy's has a huge selection - lots of really cute tankinis and "monokinis" (NT) -- PA mom of modest 14 DD, 07:13:57 07/01/09 Wed
  • Lots of cute tankinis and two pieces with boy short bottoms (that look like small tight shorts) or board shorts over the bottoms. Try a department store (like Macy's or JC Penney or even target.) Stay away from American Eagle, Hollister, Abercrombie, and Pink - they all have microscopic bottoms. (NT) -- My opinion., 07:14:55 07/01/09 Wed
  • Lands End catalog has LOTS of bathing suits to suit any size, style or taste. I know Sears carries some Lands End merchandise, not sure about the swimsuits, but you could check the store or go to (NT) -- Lands End website, 07:21:05 07/01/09 Wed
  • We've always done well cost wise at, uh, what's the name of that store....you know I can't recall right now but they have a big sale going on and you can mix and match outfits and for the life of me I'm drawing a blank but... oh well, I'm sure you'll recognize it when you see it...

    • No sooner than I hit the "send button" and I remember... "Old Navy" (NT) -- ZandB, 07:28:33 07/01/09 Wed
      • Does this mean you'll be auditioning to be one of their mannequins who model such attire? Do you prefer the tankini or the bandeau top for yourself? -- do I have to look? ;), 05:57:04 07/02/09 Thu
  • They have total body cover-up swimsuits for certain religions or you can get one piece that they wear in competitions such as the Olympics. Check in phonebook under SWIM (NT) -- -, 07:47:06 07/01/09 Wed
  • Nordstroms had some better cuts. Tony Bahama had a cute fuller coverage bikini top (NT) -- agree wtih you, 08:10:04 07/01/09 Wed
    • Thanks everybody...not looking for total cover up; just something comfortable and pretty to swim in. Lands end looks good, will try Maceys...Target near us had nothing for older teens, have to travel for Old Navy. (NT) -- ., 08:25:09 07/01/09 Wed
      • I second the Lands End recommendation. I've bought bathing suits from them for years and they are terrific. They even have a "tugless tank" that lives up to its advertising. My "bodacious" 16 yr old daughter will only wear LE suits because she's really modest. (NT) -- love them, 08:55:56 07/01/09 Wed
      • My dd and younger daughter always wear Lands End. It's the only brand that is able to be handed down. (NT) -- also hate trampy shoes!, 11:37:30 07/01/09 Wed
        • Yes! Some of the best quality clothes we own come from Lands End. Excellent service, too. (NT) -- Best for basics, 16:12:00 07/01/09 Wed
  • I'm a teenager and I got two really cute ones at Kohls last year- one tankini and a one piece with a cute pattern. My advice is to check the Misses or Women's sections rather than Jr's sections at whatever store you go to. (NT) -- fellow teen dcr, 09:17:38 07/01/09 Wed
  • I share your disgust and my 15 yo dd does too. -- Frustrated shopper, 10:11:12 07/01/09 Wed
    • We all wear very covering lifejackets when we wakeboard...also wear rashguards. Nothing pops out! Rashguards and long shorts for boogie boarding. (NT) -- lots of coverage, 11:39:34 07/01/09 Wed
      • Things that pop out when wakeboarding: -- Frustrated, 12:48:24 07/01/09 Wed
  • Lands End suits last forever!!! My dd & sis just bought suit separates from Target, was able to get nice coverage. Sis said not embarassed to sit by pool with our father. DD bought swim shorts from Penneys (NT) -- picn's might be slim now, 11:44:46 07/01/09 Wed
    • We've gotten perfectly nice, non-"slutty", bathing suits at Target for my teen dd. Her dance friends buy them too. (NT) -- mom, 11:50:22 07/01/09 Wed
      • "Non-slutty"? My dd wears a bikini and she is nowhere near a slut. She has a great figure , why does she need to cover it up. You must be the same who bitch about short dresses. (NT) -- ugh, 13:50:51 07/01/09 Wed
        • I don't think anyone was implying that ALL bikinis are slutty and if you have the body and confidence to pull one off good for you, but there are SOME that are cut really tiny and barely there the teeny tiny ones can sometimes look (NT) -- a little "slutty", 18:36:58 07/03/09 Fri
      • Agree with the other poster-do you need to use such an inflammatory term? How about "perfectly nice, modestly cut", or "less revealing"? (NT) -- think b4 u post, 14:11:29 07/01/09 Wed
        • My dds wear bikinis, too. Let's face it, there's really only about a 5 year window to wear one well unless you are very lucky! However, (more) (NT) -- No name, 16:30:31 07/01/09 Wed

          • I actually really like the padding in target tops, its just a tiny bit and keeps me from worrying about visable nipple when its windy... Also, I think hipster cut bottoms cover the most. (NT) -- boy shorts are a bit "cheeky", 19:08:58 07/01/09 Wed
            • Oh My!!! (NT) -- WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION!, 20:29:56 07/01/09 Wed
              • Sorry! Wasn't trying to TMI anyone, just passing along potentially helpful swimsuit buying info. (NT) -- =), 20:59:21 07/01/09 Wed
          • DD has bikinis from Target & the ones she got, the padding is removable - as soon as she got home, she removed them & it's amazing how much better it fits (& covers) (NT) -- ., 04:43:19 07/02/09 Thu
        • Try to relax. I was being sarcastic because OP claimed she could not find bathing suits that weren't slutty (her words, see them up there?). (NT) -- jeesh, 16:42:56 07/01/09 Wed
          • your sarcasm is unwarranted. Most teens are already self conscious...they don't need a bikini that covers nothing and could be lost by a pool wave...if you don't understand then perhaps it isn't a problem for your daughter yet, but no need for this reply (NT) -- /, 17:37:19 07/01/09 Wed
            • If they're that self-conscious they won't be wearing a skimpy bikini. BTW, some ppl wear bikinis to sunbathe and one-pieces, or better cut two-pieces, to swim and do other activities. Regardless, the term "slutty" (NT) -- was also unwarranted, 07:39:19 07/02/09 Thu
              • BTW, before anyone jumps on me, I'm not advocating sunbathing for anyone (unless they use LOTS of sunscreen) (NT) -- just to clarify, 07:41:40 07/02/09 Thu
              • Erm, the word "slutty" was first used by the OP, not me. (NT) -- ., 09:31:44 07/02/09 Thu
                • I don't care who used it first-you could have chosen a better phrase, okay? (Mom! Don't yell at me - she said it first!) (NT) -- whatever!, 12:05:25 07/02/09 Thu
                  • There seems to be a real issue with comprehension on this board ATM.The OP said s/he was looking for a non-slutty bathing suit. That we all agree on. The next person who used the term non-slutty, used it in quote marks. Moreover, they only put the word "slutty" in quote marks, indicating a dislike of the word originally used. It's the equivalent of -- I'm "sorry"!, 01:40:43 07/03/09 Fri
                    • I understand that putting something in quotation marks indicates that they are quoting another persons post, however, how did you get it also "indicated a dislike of the word originally used"? (NT) -- where'd you get that?, 11:48:30 07/03/09 Fri
              • but this is the point, they don't want to wear skimpy bikinis...so where to buy something else?? (NT) -- check the OP, 05:24:16 07/03/09 Fri
                • And from what I read, the OP got a LOT of good suggestions. I second the Land's End suggestion-you can get pretty much any style top, bottom, or onepiece on their website AND in my experience, Lands End clothing lasts practically forever (NT) -- No name, 06:55:07 07/03/09 Fri
  • I don't like my dtr's to wear bikinis, but they really wanted two pieces. We found great ones at JCPenneys where the top piece was a bit longer. They had regular bottoms, skirts, and boy cut bottoms. Very cute and my dtr's (NT) -- liked them., 13:32:41 07/01/09 Wed
  • You could also try Marshall's or TJMaxx. They typically have a good selection and its always different. Only if you have time to really look though (NT) -- ., 13:38:47 07/01/09 Wed
    • We also had success at Marshall's. Even this time of year, they have quite a big rack, also check the clearance rack. We found nice ones all under $15, too. (NT) -- Good Luck, 14:02:46 07/01/09 Wed
    • Roxy brand can be found at Ross, Marshalls and sometimes at TJ Max. What we like about certain styles of Roxy is that they can have thicker material that fits a young person appropriately. Some styles can be sportier too. Newer Roxy styles can be found at Macy's (NT) -- hope this helps, 20:28:30 07/02/09 Thu
  • Tank-ini's for our DD - in the mid teens, too. LandsEnd and LL Bean carry some nice ones and have found nice ones at Kohl's (NT) -- good luck, 17:03:36 07/01/09 Wed
  • nice tankini's and boy shorts at Boathouse yesterday (NT) -- you could try that too, 17:06:13 07/01/09 Wed
  • Athletica (not sure of spelling) has very cute, sporty suits. My 16 year old loves them. (NT) -- Hope it helps, 20:19:46 07/01/09 Wed
    • Sounds too complicated- Stay (NT) -- out of the water...go golfing, 20:32:31 07/01/09 Wed
      • But then our DD's would have golfer tans, and not bikini tans. Whatever would they do when competing at a feis with the wrong type of tan? Yes, I'm joking around here. have fun with your summer, however it best works for YOU. (NT) -- enjoy life, 06:01:16 07/02/09 Thu
