To use this Nick bikini bottom, simply put it on like you would any regular bikini bottom. When you're at the beach, it'll make you look great and feel comfortable in the water. As for maintenance, after each use, rinse it with fresh water to remove salt, sand, and chlorine. Hang it to dry in a shaded area; don't put it in direct sunlight for too long as it might fade the polka - dot pattern. When it comes to storage, fold it neatly and keep it in a cool, dry place. If you're in between sizes, remember to size up for the best fit. And if you want to look your best, pair it with the matching Savanah bikini top.
