Anonymous wrote:OP here and thanks all. I'm liking the Boden suggestion (they have cute swimsuits!) and maybe just a more full coverage bottom or boy shorts. I am long waisted and have never liked how I look in board shorts, even short ones -- from the front it really helps to have something cut higher on the leg.
What do people think about color or pattern? Would you go with a solid color or even a dark neutral color to avoid drawing attention to things, or would a fun print help distract from the stuff I'm less excited about? I'm considering these but wondering if they are too bold and I should look for something more subtle:

They cover my butt, do not require waxing, but are form fitting and don't look out of proportion with tops.
I have both swim skirts and the Athleta Surge boyshorts, and they are fine. The challenge with all of these is that when they get wet, they take a long time to dry and cling to your skin.
You wear these to pool/beach on vacation?
