    The polka dot one
  • polka dots is the most flattering. followed by the blue one. The second one is not your friend. (just trying to be honest)

    I think the halter shape you're picking is the least friendly to the uneven girls. More of a band-shape is better at concealing this situation. My little sister had the same thing, and a bikini top that doesn't tie or go around your neck, but rather just wraps around the body, was kindest to her dilemma.

    Thank you for your honesty!

    I tried a couple band style ones on because I thought the same thing - they would probably be able to conceal my issue...but, my problem then became that at least the ones I found, even the largest size seemed too small to cover my bigger girl. She kept wanting to pop out.

    Grrr- girl issues!
  • Ahhh! This was rough! So my husband gets home and tells me he likes #2 the best - he thought the photo didn't do it justice and my butt looked the best in that one. So we sat, and tried them on, and stared in the mirror for another hour today deciding...it was rough.

    Final decision - I'm keeping both the polka dotted one and the black one and taking back a swim skirt my Mom bought for me that we decided we like the least.

    Whew. It's been quite a day - but I'm pleased that I went to the store and found so many that I liked - that hasn't happened in years! Thanks everyone for your help!

    1st one (blue with stripes). I would avoid the others: #2 is not a good pattern & if you're concerned about the "girls", polka dots accentuate whats there & what isn't - I know since I have the same prob (right is almost a C & left is just over an A!).

    You've done really well with your loss & getting into a bikini - congrats :flowerforyou:

    The polka dot one hides your insecurities better than the rest but I LOVE the blue color on your complexion!

    It's a tie between the polka dots and the black stripes for me. And I totally get what your mean about the 'girls'. I have the same problem.

    I like the 3rd one, the polka dot, the best. I think the skinnier sides on the bottoms is actually more flattering. Have fun!

    Agree

    I got the blue (it's actually turquois) one and the black stripped one from Target and the polka dot one from Kohls.
