Default Help me choose! (swimsuit)

My brain is about to explode because I want half the swimsuits from Lime Ricki. I can't choooooose! HEEEEELP! Which is your fave? (poll coming)

I feel like the Courtney is my style with the bright fun colors and the polka dots, but I wonder if that string will be supportive enough for a well endowed gal. Isabelle has a great design... but I'm sad they don't have the regular boy shorts to match that suit. Coco is super fun, but I worry about the stripes making me look fat...lol. The Nicki is super adorable but I'm drawn more to the fun patterns on the others, but the black would be slimming. Jennie is cute too! See my dilemma? Help me choose!

Those are just the tops, right? Can't you get the bottoms you want to match the top you like?

Well, I want the boy shorts bottoms and they only come in black, brown, red, and yellow. I'd have to get different bottoms for the Isabelle.

Oh wow, those are all so cute!!! Though I really liked the Nicki one. Wouldn't work at all on me, but with your coloring it would be awesome!

I picked the Coco, I think the direction of the stripes will be great. The Courtney was adorable with the colors, but strings like that won't work unless your boobs are small. Otherwise, there will be sagginess and no one wants that.

I really love the cut of the Isabelle top. Did you not like the matching cinch short bottom? Because the cut of those doesn't look that much different than the boy short really.

I'm not sure I like the cinch bottoms... simply because those shirts with the cinch sides were popular when I was like 15 and it reminds me of those. haha

well i'm not sure what to say for you - I think you could pull any of them off and they would be super cute!

I have been wanting nicki since it came out but i'm too chicken to order - I emailed the lady and she suggested I try it with boy shorts in black but i'm scared i'd look silly in it.. haha

Well, if I got the Nicki, I'd get the black boy shorts too. I think it'd be ca-ute!

I like the Nicki..not because it's black but that yellow makes it so fun looking...plus you said you could get the black boy shorts for it....I think it would just make an adorable fun but still grownup swimsuit.

Wow, the voting is really close. lol I'll have to wait a while and see if one breaks ahead in the poll. Hoping to order one by June 1st because they have free shipping right now and I found a coupon code for 15% off.

I LOOOOOVE my Nicki, but if you're drawn to fun colors, I'd go with one of the others!

Well, I'm deathly afraid of bees, so there's NO way I could handle the Nicki! lol But, it is adorable other than that! My fave is the Jennie. Of course, they don't sell the one I really want anymore.

I liked them all but voted for Courtney. This is where I am ordering my suit for this year too. Haven't decided which one (or two!) I will get!

Wow the poll is certainly close! I'm cold just looking at swimsuits, we are coming into winter here in Australia! I cant wait for summer again! I'm really liking the Nicki for the slimming effect but I also really like Courtney, but like you I need something with a little more support!

What cute suits! I love the Isabella!

I need new suits, which makes me cringe, but these are adorable!

Oh YAY!! The Bailey is super cute too... love the style, but with my chest I'd be showing massive cleavage in that style. Oh how I long to be a b-cup!

BTW, this poll hasn't been very helpful. bwahahahah! I just sent them an email asking if the Courtney's strap would be supportive enough. If not, then that one is automatically off the table. I like that the polka dot cinch shorts for the Isabelle are on sale 50% off right now, but I really wish the top had the ruffles on the bottom like the Coco and the Nicki. lol AGH!!!

You can't go wrong

I so almost got the polka shorts since they were so cheap but not sure I'd ever find anything to match them not on the site

Uh oh. Heard back from their CS today and they said the Isabelle/Coco/Nicki styles work better for A and B cups. She said the Courtney is great for larger busts. Daaaang it. I got too excited and ordered one already... the wrong one. lol And I think it already shipped, so I might have to exchange it.

oh bummer!! Well, I made an exchange and they took care of it super fast, so I'm sure they'll be fast! Or, if you are too impatient, order the right one now (since shipping is free it doesn't matter right??) and just do a return instead of an exchange!!!

I thought about that... but they don't even have my size in the yellow boy shorts that match the Courtney top.

I voted Nicki. Way cute! I wouldn't wear any of the halter-top style straps...don't like tan lines around my neck like that.
