Good Golly, Which Pair.

Like, whoa. They have so many variations - some a little subtle.

I'd like something flashy but not so flashy as to draw a great deal of attention (I have my ghostly skin tone and lack of muscle tone for that already)... I was looking at http://www.aussiebum.com.au/en/swimwear ... al%20blue/ or http://www.aussiebum.com.au/en/swimwear ... al%20blue/ ...

I'm also worried about it slipping off lol
I have a pair of speedos (Speedo brand!) from when I was like... 11. 7 years pass and you grow a little apparently... Bit like... Lingerie now :)

Thoughts?

Aussiebums fit best if you have a muscular butt. (actually a muscular everything helps....) I have a pair of Classic loose in small (14). I bought the loose because I figured the nylon wouldn't stretch much. It gives a little but not like lycra. They feel too loose in the butt. Never had them come off tho even in heavy surf. The drawstring helps. If I get another pair it will be the 1.5 in your post that has the regular and rides lower.

Aussiebums look great on their models...I just can't get them to look that way on me because I don't have that build..

18 months ago I purchased a pair of small boosterjock loose 1.5. According to the size chart, they should have been perfect. They were very very loose and I found you had to tie them tight to prevent them from slipping. This month, to replace them, I purchased the XS and they are a perfect fit. Keep this in mind when deciding what size to get.... :!: --------> http://www.aussiebum.com/en/swimwear/1310/botany/
