I think your comment has convinced me that the top doesn't have enough coverage for me. Even with the straps, I feel very exposed. I can pretend I'm the kind of person who is comfortable exposing a lot of skin, but really I'm not and I think I'd better honor that.&nbsp;<br />But I will keep my eyes open for the next pretty patterned suit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694829 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 12:07:10 +0000 Helen11 1694829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's so pretty!<br /> I see it has detachable straps- I'd be using those to prevent downward slippage. But if the cups are too small, that might not be enough.<br /> I was hoping it was a good fit for you! I am always much shorter in the torso than any model, though.<br /> Definitely look at more patterned swimsuits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694468 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 22:43:22 +0000 BrieN 1694468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Roxanna-- I saw that show a few times but must have missed that nugget of wisdom. My world has shifted a degree in its axis.</p> <p>Wind chime--And a floral is so much prettier than the black My criteria have just changed dramatically </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694461 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 22:37:28 +0000 Windchime 1694461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see why you were drawn to that pretty print! It sounds like it's time for you to consider swimsuit options besides blue and black, whether or not you keep this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694433 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 22:06:43 +0000 Roxanna 1694433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes - they always used to recommend pattern on what not to wear bc of that reason / tricks the eye. Great on swimsuits too. Love this one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694411 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:24:18 +0000 Sally 1694411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Busy swimsuits can be flattering. I have a very bright green one with heaps of flowers and find it more flattering than the black I normally would have chosen.<br /> As others have said the top could be problematic </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694405 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:16:41 +0000 BrieN 1694405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lenni A -- "keeps-the-eye-moving" ?!! EXACTLY. Is that a known thing? How did I not know about that?? &nbsp; The suit and I are both short in the torso, so that works but the cups are probably too shallow or maybe low cut for me.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694401 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:13:39 +0000 BrieN 1694401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Liz: It arrived today. I tried it on. &nbsp;I'm surprised how much I liked it.&nbsp;I've never owned a patterned suit before....but somehow I thought it was kind of flattering.&nbsp;Maybe because it is so busy you don't really notice the body underneath. Good point about that top staying up. &nbsp;Maybe I'll shop for another patterned suit with more coverage... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694400 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:12:30 +0000 Lenni A 1694400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a beautiful print and I could imagine the print being quite flattering in a keeps-the-eye-moving way. On the model it looks very short in the torso and reviewers do say it runs small and the cups are small. If you've got a shorter torso and aren't busty, it looks like a really fun, pretty, and potentially flattering suit. But fit matters a lot in swimwear obviously. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694397 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:09:44 +0000 Liz 1694397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you received it and tried it on and like yourself in it, or is this a theoretical question? </p> <p>For me personally, the answer would depend a lot of whether I intended to actually get wet and swim in it. (I wouldn't trust that top to stay up.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/then-this-happened#post-1694347 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 20:29:31 +0000 BrieN 1694347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was buying blue and black one piece bathing suits online. Very conservative. And then this happened.</p> <p>Not conservative. Lots of boob. Do you think i would regret keeping this? </p>
