Nope. You look cute.

We have the same body type so im loving the comments saying you look great.
I have a black swimsuit that i got in H&M it has a plunging v in front, high legs and i feel good in them. that style suits me and i think its worth looking at.

The looks good, I do think a more structured top would give you more shape but I know a lot of people don’t like wires. The tops look a little bit on the big side
what’s important though is that you feel comfort and confident wearing them.

MajorProcrastination · 02/04/2026 14:29

I really like them, they look cool and comfortable.

ThisJadeBear · 02/04/2026 14:30

You look fab, you have a great figure but I don’t think the striped duo has much shape to it?
The flowery one has more shape.
You could try a one piece but I get in the heat they can be a bit much.
I would try a top which has a bit more structure/shape with a sporty feel?
And bottoms that are actually a little smaller/higher cut to show off those fantastic legs.

I think they look good. The flowery one is my favourite.

Devilsmommy · 02/04/2026 14:33

Get onto the website Brastop. They've got more structured swimwear for curvy women. You'd look fantastic in a lot of their stuff

Fleurdalys · 02/04/2026 14:35

You look fantastic

Surprised at people preferring the flower one. It doesn’t suit you at all. The colour doesn’t suit your skin tone and it makes you look dumpy. The black and white is much better and gives you a better shape that looks more supported.

Pllystyrene · 02/04/2026 14:39

Love this first one, you have a lovely shape. A two piece shows off your waist to hip ratio really well and both look lovely on you. But if I had to pick one I'd definitely pick the first one.

Itiswhysofew · 02/04/2026 14:43

You look gorgeous! You've got a lovely figure.

I lived near the beach, in a hot country for years, (am back there on hols at the moment), and I loved to see everyone enjoying it.

Skybluepinky · 02/04/2026 14:43

The look fine but the fact you asked means you think you would look better in a one piece.

StephensLass1977 · 02/04/2026 14:43

What do you mean by "bad"? You look absolutely fine!

Another vote for the flowery one. You have superb shoulders so you can pull off a few different looks.

5128gap · 02/04/2026 14:44

You look like an normal woman with lovely skin and an interesting tattoo in a bikini.

MyDeftDuck · 02/04/2026 14:45

Hey, you look fabulous in both but I prefer the floral one. Have a great time OP…..go rock your cossies girl! 👙👙👙

Alucard55 · 02/04/2026 14:46

The floral one really suits you. You look great.

JustToBeMe · 02/04/2026 14:48

I’m wondering if I could get away with the flowery one, it looks great.
where did you get it please op

DefiantRabbit9 · 02/04/2026 14:50

Not something I would choose but if you like them and they make you feel good than go you!

I agree, my friend has bought some great plus size swimwear from here.

Sweetpea333 · 02/04/2026 14:53

No you look great! I love that retro style.

TreeDudette · 02/04/2026 14:53

I too think the flowery ones are prettiest but you look totally normal and shapely in both.

SidekickSylvia · 02/04/2026 14:55

You look great in them. Both of them suit you.

ZebraPyjamas · 02/04/2026 14:56

I don’t like the quality of the striped one, doesn’t seem to be as nice a fit as the other one, the flowery one is lovely though

Fundraiser12345 · 02/04/2026 14:56

First of all thank you so all so much for such lovely comments they’ve gave a huge confidence boost which I kind of needed!!

im gonna pop some tan on too which always makes me feel a little better

I don't think I the colours do anything for you.

I am pale skinned very similar to your complexion. With swimwear I chose deep colours to contrast my skin colour nicely. And I tend to go for solid colours rather than patterns. You would be surprised the difference it makes.
