 Or this one from Pacsun.  The patterned top fills you out more.  The top, $19.50.  Bottom, $19.50.
Bright colors will make you look good, especially if you have a good tan going on.  This bathing suit has an underwire built in, so it will give more support and lift like a bra would.  From dELIA's, top $25. Bottom, $25.

Long and lean? More athletic and less curvy? Try some of these. 
 This horizontal striped one will make your figure look great! From Tilly's. Top, $45. Bottom, $39.
