I too have returned to swimming after years of avoiding. I am experimenting with different kinds of swimming suits, tops and bottoms. I have found some that have capri bottoms covered by a skirt that I like. They look nice enough to walk around in and can go right in the pool. After losing almost 90 pounds my legs are kind of loose and flabby looking. I feel more comfortable in some capri tights or shorts or board shorts. I found some at Coolibar which makes clothing for sun protection and also Lands end. I haven't found the perfect swim attire for me yet but I am experimenting. I am not really bothered by others, especially now during covid because I am swimming at home but I like to be a little more covered up now.
