Hi from my Naples, Florida office. I am feeling so lucky that my office is poolside on a day without a cloud in the sky, without any humidity, with the weather hovering around 80 degrees, an office that is decorated with palm trees, and The Hubster and my friends, Dick and Judi -- "with an i," she said -- hovering around me, too.

I am even luckier because Girl-Woman gets to provide two readers with free giveaways from Lands' End: a $100 gift card for a bathing suit and a $50 gift card for accessories. Lands' End will send the cards directly to you so that you can pick whatever your l'il heart desires. All you have to do is leave a comment at the end of this post as to why you would like to win a Lands' End gift card. Don't forget to leave your email address. Winners will be announced on April 30th.

Y'all might remember -- I am in the South and I immediately revert back to my twang -- the post I wrote a month ago about taking the anxiety out of purchasing a bathing suit. As I sit here writing, I am comfortably, yet stylishly, decked out in my Lands' End bathing suit. The cute skirt looks like a mini tennis skirt, yet provides enough coverage that my thigh jiggle is not drawing any attention. The underwire top provides enough lift and perkiness for my usually unperky breasts and has enough length to cover my middle. The ribbed faille fabric smooths the uneven terrain of my vacation-tummy and provides UPF sun protection

With 101 mix-and-match separates, 63 one-piece suits, 19 tankinis, 33 bikinis, 14 mastectomy suits, I am positive there is a perfect bathing suit for you.
