Downeast Basics Review & Givaway---CLOSED

This giveaway in now closed but their is one just like it here.

Congrats to lucky number 47...Kristy T. Thanks to all who participated!

A couple months ago we posted some of our favorite places to purchase cute and modest swimsuits, if you missed out you can view here.

One of our favorite modest clothing sites is DownEast Basics clothing and so when they contacted us about doing a review and giveaway we were super excited! They have a new June Fashion line that is so fun! I had a difficult time trying to decide what item I wanted to review but eventually decided to review their Mermaid Top & Banded Bikini Swimsuit Set.  


I love the suit top! One of my favorite things about the top is it provides great coverage. I love that I am not constantly having to pull it up as I chase my kiddos around the pool. I also liked that it is long in length so it covers my back and belly well (got to hide those lovely stretch marks.) The suits are 80% nylon 20% spandex and fit snug...which I like.  They also are lined and have removable cups so they fit comfortably.  
I liked the bottoms too but they ride on the hip so I was grateful the top was long length...especially since I have a long torso.  Another thing I liked about this suit is it can be washed in the washing machine...overall it's a great suit. I think a cute frilly skirt bottom would make this suit! For more details on this particular suit you can click on the link above. 

Now on to the Giveaway!!!
DownEast is offering one lucky reader one item of their choice. (Any item...it doesn't have to be a swimsuit)

  6. I LOVE the "Beach Glam Tank with Large Dots" so that is the one that I pinned. I love how much support it gives and the color is my husbands favorite so it would be a nice surprise to him ;) I'm usually in pretty blahh colors haha. I also love the matching bottoms that come with it as well. It's called "Capitola Bikini-Orange Dots".
    I'm also about to like We Love Being Moms on Facebook and I already "like" DownEast Basics on Facebook (I don't know if that counts or not?).
    PS...I haven't commented before but I love ya'll's blog here! I'm constantly following =)
