I was shopping for a cute bachelorette bikini and was dying to finally try the high leg bottoms. I ordered the medium bottom based on the reviews that it ran small and the fact that the midori bottom in wildcat medium fit perfectly expecting it to be just right. Maybe it’s the ecotex material, but I had to exchange for a small since the medium was too loose to stay on when wet and had major diaper butt. The return was quick and easy and the quality is on point so I’d still give it 5 stars. IMO this style was true to size for me and I’ll be trying more colors.

I've always been reluctant to go the cheeky/high-leg route. I tend to prefer a lower rise to show off my torso, and slightly more coverage for my booty, but this bottom convinced me I needed this as an option in my swim wardrobe! The fabric is so comfortable, the high leg isn't TOO high, and the cut in the back is so flattering that I even forgot I'm self conscious about my cellulite for a minute! Just goes to show that great quality, great FIT, and great fabric is all you need for a little confidence boost. I'm normally a size M/6/28 in other brands but for this bottom sizing "up" to the size 10/L was perfect for me. If you have some curve to you, I'd recommend sizing up. The Affogato Shimmer color does change when it gets wet, almost a darker clay color, but I don't mind it, and it dries back to the original color pretty quickly. Can't wait to purchase this bottom in a basic black in the future!

For reference, I am about 115 pounds and 5’4”. I usually wear a size 2 bottoms or a small. In this swimsuit, i ordered a medium. The size guide pointed me to a medium so i went with that. Upon receiving the bottoms, they are way too small! So, a large will hopefully fit. Just be aware that these run very very small!! They are very good quality and very cute though!
