Wear what you like and makes you feel comfy. Please don't worry what others think!!
A few years ago DH and I went shopping at Macy's for a swimsuit and he couldn't sit in the "husband chair" as another guy was in it while his wife was in the fitting room trying stuff on. I grabbed 3 suits and went into the fitting room. When I got the first one one, I liked how it looked and went out to show DH. I was kind of stunned to not see him in "the chair" but just shrugged and marche dout onto the floor looking for him. The other guy just kind of goggled at me as I found DH, twirled around, got his nod of "looks good!", and marched back into the fitting room. The guy murmured something along the lines of "I can't believe you walked out into the store in the swimsuit..." as I went by. I stopped, looked at him, and said "I'm shopping for a swimsuit to wear on vacation....If I am not comfortable enough to walk out into anearly empty store to show my husband, then i'm not comfortable enough in it to wear on vacation in front of people I will never see again."
The guy started laughing and said "that's the smartest thing I've ever heard!" then he yelled to his wife "You hear that honey?!?"
ETA...I am no super model. I would certainly be considered plus size at size 12.
