Maternity tankini recommendations?

Although SPD is likely to put a stop to much actual swimming (and even lovely aquanatal) soon, I still want to be able to float about and splash in the pool with my toddler this summer...
My stringent requirements are:
two piece - tankini probably
not too floral/pink
not halter-necked (makes me look like a linebacker)
not high-cut in the pants department as I can't be bothered to depilate right now
must cost less than £30

Amaze me

I had my PFB 7 weeks ago and bought a tankini to go swimming before he was born (I went once, lol!). I also wore the tankini top when labouring in the birthing pool so I did get use out of it.

I got mine in British Home Stores about 3 months ago. They are well priced, do mix-and-match bottoms and tops and their sizes are good.

They don't do specific maternity items, but my opinion is that it isn't needed anyway. I just bought a bigger size and made sure I tried on a few different sizes to make sure it fitted. Also, it's a stretchy material so will grow a bit as your bump does.

I got a pair of shorts for around £13 and the tankini top was around £15.
