Modest or Not

When going to a party with a lot of people who don't wear modest clothing, let alone modest swimwear, it's hard to explain why you're all covered up. Yet, what I've found is getting a really cute tankini top with high waisted bottoms and board shorts. If it's in style, I feel like I fit in while being modest! I don't suggest wearing a bikini with a rash guard and board shorts above it, because no matter how hard you try, underneath the surface you are still not following the Heavenly Father's words. The tankini looks just as cute as a bikini and is still in style, not like a lot of one-pieces are. And for competitive swim. I too swim competitively and I have to wear my team's suit. Yet, I've found that if I put some modest shorts and a modest T-shirt on the whole day and only take them off right before I get in the pool I feel better about myself. But, I believe it is a good idea to not walk around in those bathing suits because they are very revealing. So I suggest you to choose to be modest, even when you feel like the "rest of the people in the world" aren't.
