Review on Women'S Plus Size High Waisted Bikini Swimsuit Flounce Top Tummy Control Two Piece Tankini Bathing Suit by Aaron Romero

I kept this bathing suit saved in my cart for months before I bought it, trying to decide if it would actually look good on me/I'd feel confident enough to wear it. Finally decided to bite the bullet and spend the measly 25-ish bucks on it. Worst case, it doesn't fit and I send it back, right? Well.omg.I love this suit. I am 5'7" and 235-240 lbs depending on what time of the month you catch me, size 16/18, XL/XXL, depending on the brand. I went by the size chart and ordered an XXL and it's basically perfect. As others have said, the bottoms are a teensy bit snug, which on me, makes the fabric stretch just the tiniest bit more than maybe it should and you can start seeing the white backing of the fabric through the outside so the bottoms look slightly more gray than black. The thinness of the fabric is the only reason I'm docking a star. I will say these bottoms have very good stretch! I've never had kids but I've got a too-much-sugar-in-my-diet lower belly, so I was afraid these bottoms wouldn't fit or look good, but they do! I don't get the rouching in the front that one would get if they had a flat tummy, but I love the high waist on these things and that they hide the part I hate most about my body! The top fits me perfectly! For my weight, I'm actually kinda smaller chested, but this top could definitely accommodate a larger chest. If you are undecided like I was, quit thinking about it and just order it! I didn't think I could feel confident in a two piece that wasn't a tankini, but I finally found the right kind of swimsuit! The top comes down just low enough to hide my fluffy midsection while showing just the right amount of skin. It's flouncy and cute, and I love it! I'll be buying more patterns!Update: I bought two more sets in the same size, and the bottoms are cut slightly smaller (pictured). I lined them up on one side and you can see on the other side how they're cut smaller. The tops are the same. I basically expect clothing manufacturers on Best Buy to have inconsistent sizing, and thankfully these are still wearable. just a little snug. But if I returned them and went up a size, the top would be too big, so I'll just make these work. Hopefully they'll stretch out a bit with wear. Just something to be aware of.
