Thanks so much for your answers. I'm bringing this up one more time before I send the gal the link for her project. Anyone else wnat to share?

I live 20 miles from beaches and go sporadically all year long.

The last bathing suits I bought were 20+ years ago and skimpy. Probably all stretched out by now but I haven't worn them in ages. My preferred beach attire is gym shorts, gym bra, sun screen and big hat. I don't swim.

1. How often do you do you go to the beach?
Usually I take a beach vacation once in the winter, somewhere warm, for a week, and I spend two or three weekends at a lake home in the summer. Wish it were more often.

2. How often do you wear swimsuits?
Only at a beach, as I mentioned above.

3. How many swimsuits do you own?
Three


4. Where did you purchase your bathing suit and for how much?
At a department sale, probably for too much money, but I don't really remember.


5. What brand is it?
Don't have a clue.

6. How satisfy are you with the one you own? If not satisfy, why not?
They are fine

7. Do you prefer 1 piece or 2 pieces? Why?
One, or a tankini, to hide the menopausal belly

8. How much are you willing to spend on swimsuits?
Up to $50, I suppose

9. How concerned are you about getting tan lines?
Not at all

10.What fabric do you prefer in swimsuits and why? (cotton, spandex, nylon, etc)
Never thought about this, whatever works.

11.What color/pattern swimsuits do you prefer?
I look more for the style of the suit than the color or pattern, but usually a solid color

12.How often do you shop online?
I am on online browser and will buy something if it is a really great buy.

1. How often do you do you go to the beach?
As often as possible, which is not often enough.

2. How often do you wear swimsuits?
Almost every week. I wear them in my back yard,lying in the sun reading. (yes I still like to tan and probably always will..I find it very relaxing!)

3. How many swimsuits do you own?
too many.........probably about a dozen.

4. Where did you purchase your bathing suit and for how much?
Purchased my last one at Beall's. Have purchased them everywhere from Ross to Kmart. Just depends. I go thru a lot of them and don't like to spend a fortune on them, but for the right suit, I'll splurge.

5. What brand is it?
Name the brand and I probably have one. Have everything from Jantzen to brand nobody ever heard of.

6. How satisfy are you with the one you own? If not satisfy, why not?
I'm pretty satisfied with most of them.

7. Do you prefer 1 piece or 2 pieces? Why?
Prefer a two piece -- mostly tankini's.


8. How much are you willing to spend on swimsuits?
I'm a bargain shopper. Tend to buy most of them on sale racks. Probably most I'd spend is $50.

9. How concerned are you about getting tan lines?
I don't like strap lines and look for bathing suits that I can undo the strings around my neck or straps over my shoulders and it will stay UP!!

10.What fabric do you prefer in swimsuits and why? (cotton, spandex, nylon, etc)
Spandex

11.What color/pattern swimsuits do you prefer?
Dark colors and Hawaiian prints

12.How often do you shop online?
Never, for a bathing suit.......it's definitely something I'd have to try on to buy. I don't do any clothes shopping online because I'm never sure what size is going to fit and have to try everything on......sizes are too screwy these days.
