Navy Hipster Bottoms

I got these for a vacation to Fiji, where I knew I’d be really active swimming, snorkeling, paddling, etc in the ocean. I’m 5’3”, 125-130lbs, size 2 or 4 in jeans, and have an athletic build. I fit in a S and XS, and went with the XS to ensure they were snug and stayed up while doing water activities. They stayed up and looked so cute!

This print is super cute and they were a perfect fit in a size small. I ordered 3 other bottoms and these are the snuggest even though they are all the same size. I am 5’5” and 132lbs. My hips measure 35”. I do have to say that Albion needs to do better on their size chart. There is no hip measurement and since these are a low rise bikini bottom, your waist measurement isn’t going to help you find the right size. I even found a cute top at Target to match! I bought these on final sale so couldn’t find a top I liked on the Albion site.

I really like this style of these bottoms. They have good coverage and stay in place when moving around and playing with my daughter in the pool. They aren’t super low, but not high waisted either. I am thicker through the hips and thighs, and usually need curvy style pants to accommodate the smaller waist and bigger booty. I wear about a 2 in pants and a small fit perfectly.
