    I have a Boden tankini and I like it a lot, but on a whim last year I bought an Athleta bikini from the "Not So String" line and I love it and DH says that is more attractive than my tankini (and I am nowhere close to my lowest weight). I already have my eyes on another "not so string" bikini. The bikinis were more flattering than the one piece suits; I was quite surprised!

    I have a ruched Lands End tankini top and bottom, but my main complaint about it is that the leg holes are still too conservative and draw way too much attention to my stomach and wide hips. Sometimes I wear the top with a swim skirt. I wore this top a lot when my kids were in mom n me lessons because it wasn't a halter top they could accidentally pull down.

    Thank you everyone! For some reason, I can't find the Not So String line on their website. My Hubby would probably prefer this to a tankini too so I am open to trying it
