To wear this bikini top, simply adjust the string ties around your neck and back to get your perfect fit. When you're in the water, keep in mind that it might be a bit sheer when wet. After use, rinse it with fresh water to remove salt and sand. You can hand - wash it in cool water with mild detergent. Don't wring it out too hard. Instead, gently press out the water and let it air dry. Avoid direct sunlight for a long time as it can fade the color. This top runs true to size, so pick the size you normally wear.
