Dear Target,
I am a big fan. I've spent many hours and dollars at your store. I love that everything is a little more high-end, but that I don't feel like I'm paying high-end prices. You rarely fail me. However, I do have to say that I am VERY disappointed with your plus-size swimsuit selection this year. I realize that I've been in a bad mood this week, and maybe I shouldn't have even been shopping for a swimsuit, but it should be very warm this weekend and we'll be at the cabin. Nevertheless, I found your plus-size suits very hard to find. They were crammed on a back wall by the door to your back room. But here was the kicker for me, do we really need to only carry tankinis? I understand that a lot of people like them, but me, not so much. Maybe I haven't found one to fit me quite yet, and believe me, yours didn't either. No one in their right mind wants to see my midsection. I don't want to either. But in your tankini, there it was, in all it's pale, flabby glory. Even the pictures on your website show a bit of skin showing between the tank and the "ini". Do you not realize that we're plus size? There should be no middle showing. If this was a good thing, we'd all just wear bikinis. Oh, and those two full suits you had there? I'm fat, not fifty. So, I shall be heading to the lake in a stretched out suit from Sam's Club a couple years back. You can thank yourself for that one.
Your poorly suited friend,
Nicole

Target needs help in many departments. I hope you send the letter to target. Maybe the size 2 buyer will think differently next year.

even tho they may not have my size in everything, I always seem to walk outta there with something. Go figure.
I have noticed this too, Nicole. That all of the swimsuits are Tankinis or the one pieces are leopard or hawaiian printed. It sucks looking for a swim suit as it is, much less having absolutely NO selection at all. I hope you have a good time at the cabin anyway!

You had me laughing so hard I made Greg come read this.

PS...next time try a Lands' End suit...they have a ton of different styles that work for all different body types that don't look like they're for your grandma. They last forever too!
quit your whining.
Nicole - all of their clothes are a pain! Not just in swimsuits but in all their clothes - I am a size 6 or 8 - but at Target I have to buy a 10 or 12 to get it to fit....since I have issues with buying anything over a size 8, I'm NOT going to buy a 10 or 12! They must assume that people that are a size 6 or 8 don't have a butt or thighs at all....
It's too bad - their career separates and suits are really cute.
