I recently got my bikini from victoria secrets and it covers right over my areola, is it suppose to fit like that or cover more.

As long as it fits well enough that it doesn't slip out I think it's good.

Personally if you feel comfortable in it, I don't really think it matters. If you feel like your boobs might come out or you just feel like its uncomfortable for you to wear and swim/do other fun things in, try getting a bigger size, or a different style :)

It should probably cover more than your areola unless you're going for the porn star look but do you. Whatever you want.

Typically it's supposed to cover more but if you want it to fit like that then go for it! Kudos to you :)

Mine covers a little bit more than what you said, but I have like no boobs so I don't have to worry much haha. Just jump around in it and move your arms to see if anything comes out. I agree with some ladies that if you like it, wear it

Um I mean personally I would want it to cover more, but if you're ok with wearing it I mean go for it.

Usually they should cover more than that. I would try a different style or size because you don't want a nip slip while you're having fun. :)

I personally would want mine to cover WAAAYY more. But if you're comfortable with it just barely covering your areola then thats up to you girl. We all have our own personal preference!

Yeah, I think this is a personal decision. I don't believe in women dressing to please others. If you like it, wear it. It is an unconventional style, but it's 2014.

Here's how I feel about modern day bikinis, might as well just put stickers on and go commando. Like really xD they hardly cover anything as is. But wear whatever you want lol.

Guys, don't be ridiculous. It's all a matter of what you're comfortable with, don't shame someone for wanting to wear something you personally wouldn't be comfortable with. MY VS bikini fits just over my areola, and I admit I was unsure when I bought it, but I can jump and swim and do flips, and I don't pop out. I'm sure it looks fine, just jump around a bit to make sure yourself that you won't have a nip slip.

It legally only has to cover your areoles, anything more than that is a matter of preference.

Cool pics lol yeah I wasn't saying anything bad, I was being dead serious when I said do what you want. I'm all for showing off as much as you feel comfortable with.

When I said porn star look, that's literally areolas only on all sides. And if that's the look you're going for, get it. 👏
