High Waisted High Leg Retro Style Bikinis? Love or Hate?

[CheerGirl38139]

Love

Hate

Apathetic

Ambivalent

[Julius1933]

It's all about personal taste. My personal preference is white cotton string bikini. But, my opinion doesn't matter. What matters is what are YOU comfortable wearing? What makes YOU feel sexy? If you feel good, and think you're sexy, it will show through and the specific piece of lingerie won't really matter. Your attitude, the way you carry yourself is what makes you sexy.

[CheerGirl38139]

Thanks. Not the question at all.

But thanks all the same. 👍

Higher waistlines make legs seem longer, and long legs are sexy. Plus, they'd look great on my mid-mod lawn furniture, matching the retro look. I'd say these can be sexier on a lot of women than low cut bikini bottoms.

[CheerGirl38139]

i agree

[matchrestore]

media1.s-nbcnews.com/.../...y-ss-slide-desktop.jpg Could see bringing back the couple's swimwear trend. Now that would be true mid-mod retro

[CheerGirl38139]

ermm no. LOL

[matchrestore]

Ok, maybe high waisted still isn't a thing for guys lol

[Seeyouaround]

Adore these. Only problem is the tanlines that come from it. The high waisted and high leg combo makes for a very flattering silhouette that elongates the legs lifts the tush and tucks in the tummy. I think it can look better on a wider range of bodytypes and its just damnright sexy.

[sagevalentine]

I think they're cool, I actually love the thong bikini bottoms that sit really high on the waist. Whenever I wear them my boyfriend calls me giraffe legs lol.

[NicolaJ35]

Nah! Really don't like that style at all. In my mind, it totally takes away the idea of a bikini.

[CheerGirl38139]

hows that? these were basically the original bikini.

[NicolaJ35]

Yeah I get what you mean they were the original bikini, but personally I think it would be like wearing a pair of shorts which I would probably do anyway

[sqoqpuas]

I think they look good on chubbier girls while they just hide the curves of thin ones

[CheerGirl38139]

hmm really?

I think they make legs look longer on any size girl

[Goodwifie]

They make my butt look big but not in a good way.

[Ashtonx]

Definitely prefer lower bikinis. Seeing hips and lower stomach is really attractive and it is so different to a guys hips. It's good to showcase your womanly features

[CheerGirl38139]

OK but some of the high leg bottoms actually show hip bones - they're just high waisted.

[Ashtonx]

But then you miss out on the lowest stomach part. I'm not sure what it's called but assuming the girl waxes or shaves, when the bikini sits low and you can see the top part where hair would normally be. Lots of guys like seeing that

[CheerGirl38139]

oh I gotcha.

[Prankster13]

NOT a fan of those vertical stripes. BUT that style bikini? I love. They look very nice.

[Jemini_Crocket]

Not something what I'd prefer or could even afford to wear but if you like them, then get them :) They're nice.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

The model in the pic can rock it. I can't. So, no thanks.

[FMJ_Guy]

LOVE THAT!! and LOVE the waist-high jeans and shorts like Taylor Swift wears!!

[FMJ_Guy]

@ CheerGirl38139 Brunettes are much 'Hotter' than "Bleach blondes"!!

[kenworth]

Let me restyle the bottums so the whole bikini looks really sexy and cute. As the fifth it should be to restyle the bottum

[CheerGirl38139]

the bottoms are the main thing that makes it "retro".

Anyone can find/wear a typical string tie bikini bottom.

[kenworth]

Well retro it is. However everything that goes retro dosn't mean its a good idea. Some things should be left in the past

[CheerGirl38139]

fair enough

[KirstyW]

I probably wouldn't go for those, because of the tanlines.

[markscott]

This style of bikini doesn't look that good to me, even on a model.

[CheerGirl38139]

some people feel that way

[markscott]

CheerGirl38139: it's just a matter of what happens to look good to a person. Each has particular styles they like, or don't like.

[CheerGirl38139]

yeah. Hence the question and the poll. :)

[Philyouup]

take them or leave them.. Have never really seen one that made me go wow...

[maddie_v]

Depends on your body type tbh! I see some girls that rock it and some that look really weird in it

[maddie_v]

haha why? 😂

[maddie_v]

I can't send messages yet so I don't know if I can get them either?

[TripleAce]

Love... lol my fav actually

[CheerGirl38139]

its becoming my new fav

[TripleAce]

I've always been a fan... I can probably say those are my favourite ones..

[TripleAce]

are you going to try high waisted next time around?

[CashewStew]

None of the above. Don't like the bottoms, top is decent, shows off a "hot back".. which is sexy. Bottoms look like Grammy underwear though. :)

[CheerGirl38139]

What would be the 5th voting option that I left out? 😂

[soe11]

My girlfriend and her mom doesn't like.

Both wear micro bikini.

[FrenchyRomain]

NOPE no thanks i don't want to go back to the 70s or the 80s thank you

[CheerGirl38139]

too late. Women's fashion always cycles

[FrenchyRomain]

good thing i always stay away from people who are into fashion

[CheerGirl38139]

dude... you can think/day that all you want... but the clothes that they make each year that hang in basic department stores have styles that cycle around from the length of dresses to the types of any legs on jeans and the physical size of purses. You can't escape it completely unless you never wear anything put sweat shirts and fart catchers.

[FrenchyRomain]

how about a woman that dresses just like me : first pair of jeans that passes in her eyesight in her dresser, first metal hoodie / sweater, and random t-shirt underneath... she shops at H&M in the aisle with all the metal goodies, shops online at EMP and Red Bubble where all the metal and geek merch is...
you think she follows the fashion trends?

[CheerGirl38139]

no, she probably doesn't... But H&M does. :)

[FrenchyRomain]

yet H&M sell Metallica, Iron Maiden and Slayer shirts hoodies and tank tops ;) don't see that in your fashion trend every year ODDLY ENOUGH ;)

[CheerGirl38139]

LOL... they also have a "newly arrived" section and you can sort your selections by "NEW IN"

So... delude yourself all you want bro. They buy/sell what is being produced - which is whatever the TRENDS are - and yes there is still a market for Metallica t-shirts, etc.

You know why? Because what's old is what's new. I have Beatles and Pink Floyd t-shirts.

Guess what? I wasn't around when they were. :)

[FrenchyRomain]

and i bet you don't listen to them either ;)

[CheerGirl38139]

actually I listen to A LOT Of different old and new music. Nothing metal tho.

But I do like Rush, Pink Floyd, and some Led Zeplin.

[CheerGirl38139]

and some Beatles too.

[FrenchyRomain]

well you are a rare specimen xD
i remember seeing a girl with a Nirvana shirt (just the fucked up smiley not the name printed on the shirt) so i go up to her and ask "nice shirt what's your favorite song from them?" she looks at me, her eyes saying "WTF" and she simply answers "what are you talking about? that's just a random emoji"... you have no idea how much the desire to punch her in the face burned inside me at that moment

[CheerGirl38139]

LOL see? You're a culture snob in your own way. You just try to tell yourself that you're not. :)

[FrenchyRomain]

i believe that you wear what you like... if you like Deadmau5 then you will wear a Deadmau5 shirt... if you don't know or like Nirvana you are not gonna wear a Nirvana shirt... worst example would be Kylie Jenner (or Kendall i don't fucking care) that wore a Slayer shirt at a Televised event and then posted on Twitter "i don't understand how people can listen to heavy metal"... genius

[CheerGirl38139]

that sentiment I do understand. :)

[MommysBoyToy]

Not much of a fan. Gives a lot of girls that 1980s long flat butt look :(

[MayBlythe]

I don't wear anything high waisted

[Steve37]

I prefer if she shows her navel.

[CheerGirl38139]

okay

[Anon_af]

A girl in a bikini... love it

[CheerGirl38139]

LOL. the style of suit, not the girl

[Anon_af]

Yeah, I like the retro look too... reminds me of Elle MacPhersons early years...
