Review on ๐Ÿ๏ธ Private Island Leggings: Must-Have Women's Workout Clothing for Swimsuits & Cover Ups by Paul Hubbard

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Where have you been all my life?

These shorts are amazing! I'm 5'5", 175 pounds and let's just say my hips are a bit bulky (I'm actually one step closer to being a mermaid). However, I hate traditional bikini bottoms and even swim shorts I'm not flattered to wear. But they slide down well and don't clump when I walk. I ordered a size up as I usually wear a size 12 dress. I was afraid they would be too small but I definitely don't think I know stretchy sheer fabric can be a problem for girls like me who have a bit more junk in their pants I haven't worn them in the water yet I bought them for our cruise. But I plan on ordering a second pair because they are amazing I usually wear tankinis to swim and they look great with them I also tried them on with a regular triangle top and it looked good rl who shy i st going in a bikini - highly recommend these ****** Updated 11/12/15 ***** I liked the black version so much I bought the grey/blue version of it too and though they fit as expected, I am disappointed in the quality of the fabric. Before purchasing, I asked if the fabric would show through when stretched (you know, like a yoga brand whose tracksuit bottoms looked more like tights than pants). The straight answer is no, they don't show through, which is the case with the black pair I discussed above. Well when I put on the grey/blue pair you can CLEARLY see through the underside. I could see my underwear and my skin where there was no underwear. Given that this is the bottom of a swimsuit and I wouldn't wear underwear to swim, the fact that they show through is unacceptable. I am returning the grey/blue pair but keeping the black ones. I also downgraded my rating by one star because the bottom of the swimsuit shouldn't show through when stretched. I still love them but ladies if you have a bigger butt like mine stay away from light colored shorts.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old
