To wear the Verde Brazilian Bottom, simply pull them up over your hips and tie the strings at the sides for a secure fit. These bottoms are great for beach days or pool parties. When it comes to care, hand - wash them in cold water with a mild detergent and lay them flat to dry. Since this is a final sale item, please double - check the size before purchasing. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach on the fabric to keep the green check print looking vibrant.
