It's a little hard to tell from the picture, but I think your built sort of like me. A little bit bigger on the bottom, but overall a pretty athletic build?

If so your best bet for bikinis are going to be bottoms that either have hoops on the hips, (that show some skin through) or something with a little belt like band that runs straight across. The first option is flattering because that extra bit of skin makes your legs look longer, because there is no breaking up your legs from your body. I don't really get why the belts are flattering, but I usually find I have pretty good luck with them.

Are you trying to emphasize your chest or tone it down?
