"This swimsuit is super flattering and hides my tummy (hallelujah)," wrote one happy swimsuit shopper.

The first looked so good that I had to get one more because I loved it so much..."

"I really wanted to buy some Birks, but couldn't bring myself to pay the price, so I decided to go for these instead, and I was pleasantly surprised!" a happy traveler shared. "They are so cute, and I had more than one friend think they were the real deal. They go with everything and hold up very well. I wore them everywhere on my vacation to Tulum, Mexico, and they were perfect. I've been dealing with painful plantar fasciitis in my feet, and I've discovered on the days I wear these shoes my feet do not hurt nearly as much by the end of the day. I just bought a pair in another color and a pair for each of my teenagers because they keep stealing mine!"
