High-waisted, flared jeans (think '70s-style) is a huge trend, with celebs like Hilary Duff, Keira Knightley and Rachel Bilson seen wearing the look. Do you think they look cute?
Yes, I love them. They're really flattering and don't show half your butt when you bend over, either.
No, I like a more traditional leg, like boot cut or straight leg jeans.

Bathing Beauties
Swimsuit shopping is oh-so-easy when you do it online. You can find suits for your shape, tastes, and lifestyle all with the click of a mouse. Here are some great finds we scored on the Web — from stores you'll want to visit yourself.

Crochet-ring Seersucker Bandeau Top, $44, www.jcrew.com
J. Crew has an awesome selection of classically preppy pieces, like this cute, flirty top. It's great as-is for smaller-busted girls, but it also comes with a detachable halter strap for extra support if you desire it.

OndadeMar Chocolate Dots Skirt, $65, www.instyleswimwear.com
Just because you want to be slightly more covered up doesn't mean you need to wrap yourself in a giant towel. This playful miniskirt gives you full butt coverage but still makes you look beach-ready. We love this Web site — it's brimming with great stuff.

ViX Swimwear Banded Halter, $74, www.everythingbutwater.com
Yet another site where you can search for your ideal suit based on body type, fashion taste, and much more. We found this adorable top when looking for suits that fit D, DD, and E bust sizes.

Victoria's Secret PINK Mini Board Shorts, $18, www.victoriassecret.com
It's no surprise that the PINK line has a fabulous amount of goodies for poolside parties at decent prices, such as these sporty green board shorts, which have a fun surfer-girl vibe.

Aaron Chang Reversible Bikini Top, $48, www.urbanoutfitters.com
We are suckers for anything reversible, because it lets us get more bang for our buck and save room when we pack for our vacations, too. We like the coverage this top offers — it's the ideal not-too-skimpy bikini.
