So I'm in bathing suit shopping hell! My husband I just booked our anniversary trip so no more avoiding bathing suits. My body has changed since having 2 kids and I'm having difficulty finding bottoms that my booty isn't hanging out. I consider myself a skinny person but don't like the cut of most bottoms.
Can anyone recommend some well fitting modest bottoms?

@Canoli: I Just got a new bikini from J Crew. They are also having a 25% off sale right now! I think this is very flattering but modest!

Or this:

They have other styles too, of course. Even cute little "board shorts" for women and "beach skirts". Both swimwear with a lot more coverage.
I personally like the hipster style they have the best, which is more modest than a lot of suits but may not be what you're looking for.

@SweetiePie: Thank you. The first one you listed is exactly what I am looking for, cute but still has nice coverage. I wish they had more colors.

@Canoli: Looks like Gap has something similar in more neutral colors:

This is the best bottom I've ever worn. The shirring covers up any muffin business nicely

And these are pretty pricey, but Athleta also has some bottoms that will stay put! http://athleta.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=1026482&mlink=46656,9570145,Swim_Bottoms_3_24&clink=9570145

@SweetiePie: yes on JCrew. @Canoli: it depends when your trip is but I'd get on their mailing list they email a free ship and discount code when they release their new swimwear lines in the spring usually.

@Canoli: ah, didn't realize they only had it in a couple of colors. That stinks!
