Hurrah! Hubby just secured our place at an adorable town pool. It’s not in our own town, mind you, and requires a bit of a trek in the SUV, but that hardly matters, does it? As a family, we get downright giddy when we’re around water, so as soon as Memorial Day weekend hits, we’ll be parking it poolside on a regular basis.

Now comes the shopping bit. I’ve grown mighty fond of my Victoria’s Secret one-piece Magicsuit, just like the one in this here itty bitty ol’ picture. And while I don’t look anywhere near as scorching hot as supermodel and new mama Karolina Kurkova when I’m wearing mine, I still feel pretty confident. It pulls me in where I need to be pulled, and, thanks to an underwire, pushes me up where I need to be hoisted heavenward.

Although I’m generally not a fan of high-powered “shapewear,” I find this suit utterly bearable—even throughout a full day of beaching or pooling it. That’s why I need to get it in several more colors, stat. The Diapered Darling has an endless array of cute suits. Shouldn’t I? Why, yes. I should.
