I love them - that one is cute but shows way too much cleavage for me.  |

Yeah - i wonder if the fake boobs come with it |

| I love tankinis, but I've never been able to wear one b/c my torso is so long. However, that one looks long enough. It's very cute! I love the belt. |

| I love tankinis! I think they are 100 times better than a 1 piece that clings to ya! they just seem to be more user friendly as far as covering problem areas! |

| I actually have that very one from VS! I have it in the brown scroll pattern, but I really like it and its super comfortable. I also have one of their "build your own suit" tankinis too. |

SKinny - oh I could kiss you! Seriously, I appreciate your comment. I have always been a wee bit heavy, like could drop a few pounds ya know. Now i am quite happy and comfortable and at a size I have never been in my life. I always wear bikinis but a) i am 36 and maybe need to dress more age appropriate - I don't know  I have DOUGH belly big time....not a ton of it jsut dough from 2 c sections I guess |

| Very cute. I tried on a tankini the other day and it was horrible. Maybe it wasnt the right style but my breasts were all hanging out...and they were down to my knees...not attractive. I need a little support up there if anyone has any ideas. |

| I like tankinis, just not on me. I don't know what it is exactly, but they ride up in the waist. But if I go with a larger size, then the top is way too big because I have no boobs. I've had a c-section girl and I wear a bikini. And I'm 33. Yeah, so I don't look like I did when I was 23, but crunches help. And you just had the wee one, give it time. And if I may add, my MIL who is 55 still rocks a bikini (and I mean rocks), so can WE!! Love the suit you picked btw! |

Oh I do own a million and wear them all the time.......bikini's that is. I just thought maybe I would try something different! |
