    I, too, think you should choose a one piece. You have a beautiful, body tho - I'm envious haha. But I just think women w/ a few curves look BEAUTIFUL in one pieces.

    your body looks great. I would choose a different bikini. The bottoms are too small.
    I disagree that you need a one piece. Sure it would look fine but you can rock a bikini no problem. just find one that fits better. :-)

    To be clear - I don't think anyone was saying she needs a one piece, they were offered as suggestions.
    Like I said, I don't normally do one pieces but the first one is so amazing, I would have bought it. (I don't like the one strap look on me so I'd pass on the second personally).

    Top looks great.
    You need a fuller cut bottom. The bottom is not flattering at all.

    You are SO tiny right above your belly bottom - you have a nice hourglass figure.
    Those look like junior bottoms. Those don't look good on most people unless you have a totally flat stomach.

    Look for a bottom that comes up to about 1" below your belly button. Let me see if I can find a way to post pictures of my bikinis because we're built quite similarly and I avoid bottoms like that like the plague.

    Top looks FANTASTIC and your body looks great overall - just lose those bottoms. They aren't working for ya! :)

    You look FANTASTIC! I love the super cute top, but yes, as others have said, the bottoms are not quite hitting you in the right spot. It would be great if the side seam hit right at your hips showing off your great shape.

    Happy swimming!

    I love DanaHerro's advice for you, OP!

    I think along the lines of most of the feedback you have already received...it looks perfectly OKAY, and in it you would look better than half the women at the pool (if not more)...but it's just not the most flattering, either.

    As a fellow pale lady I agree with the suggestion of brighter/darker colors. With your skin tone I think a coral or red-orangey color would look awesome.

    Unflattering

    I dont think the color is great on you, I think with your skin tone a darker or warmer color would look better as your kinda pale (like myself, I do better with bright colors not pastels.)

    The top looks fine, but the bottoms dig in in the wrong places, thats just the cut of it, Id try to find a bottom with a wider waist band that doesnt tie on the sides.

    My new FAVORITE bathing suit designer - Trina Turk --- I just have to add an example of one of her new suits here since I swear the material is heavenly and doesn't push any chub and the cuts are great. Priciest suit I ever bought - but damn - I was so happy to splurge on this:

    and I am adding in the long sleeve soon because I love wearing "rash guard" suits when it's time to really play hard on the beach without worrying about losing the top:

    you've got a good body.. i think the suit is wrong for you..which is the suit not you. if you love it…get bigger bottoms..and you'll be good.

    My honest opinion is I'd pick the stuff up off the floor before posting pics. I know I'm a little crazy.........ha ha

    Yes to the top.. No to the bottom.

    I think the top looks OK. I am not a fan of the bottoms. Personally I think you would look better in something a little higher cut and with a thicker band vs the strings on the side. Perhaps a little fuller as well. I also think a darker/richer color could be more flattering on you. a brown/maroon/etc.
