The two swimsuit tops I've reviewed are available online only, so I wanted to show my experiences in case anyone here orders from Aerie. This is my second flop with Aerie bikini tops. Honestly, I usually purchased bikini tops in Medium, so I should have known better, but I wear Aerie bralettes in XS and S, and Aerie bras in 30D and 32C. Since I'm so small busted, it would seem like too-small would be unusual, but I'm one of those people with tall wide roots, and this causes fit frustrations. I posted a review previously on another Aerie crop bikini in size XS. The straps were not adjustable in the first style I purchased. In this style I purchased S, The straps are completely adjustable, including the band around the rib cage. Overall, this is a better fit, simply because it can be adjusted. However, the cups are SO small! Perhaps those with less pliable tissue could wear this and not look like a cracker pressed against a marshmallow, but not so with me. This top is beautiful! I'm going to try Medium, because I like it so much, but I wanted to let you know that, in my experiences, Aerie bikini tops runs very small. Unless you have full, firm tissue, you may want to consider sizing up.
