Women's Gradient Floral Side Tie Bikini Swim Bottom

I wear a M in swim bottoms in most brands like JCrew, Lilly, Tommy Bahama, Boden, and others. Based on reviews I ordered a M and L to try. The M was definitely too tight. The L fit better, but the fabric is kind of flimsy feeling and so I didn't feel "held in" very well, plus the seams didn't stretch as well as the suit. Cute fit and I liked the ties, but returning. Purple did match Fuschia from the strapless tankini tops -- how odd the same name is not used throughout the collection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced my last Anna Cole bottoms with new ones. My last bottoms lasted over 10 years! I noticed the quality is much better than they used to be. However, my old ones were stretched out so the new ones feel a little tight. If you are replacing an old stretched out pair, maybe size up.
