Is bikini fashion your passion? Then you got to read on to get that perfect bikini for your body!

How often have you wished you knew the secret formula to find the perfect swimwear as you go dead on your feet marching along the lanes to pick the right designer swimwear piece? If your instant reaction is ‘most of the times’, then consider your search over, this is the article for you! Primarily it’s more about knowing the body type that you are blessed with and then selecting a bikini that complements your torso perfectly.

Go ahead and match your body type with the ideal style, read on:

  • Hourglass figure – Lucky you! Sport anything on the beach and you can easily cruise through looking gorgeous and sexy. However, bandeau or a triangle top would look the best.
  • Pear Shape – Bigger rear and comparatively smaller shoulder or bosom. Bandeau, plunging neck line or a halter would make you look stunning. You can consider opting for molded or padded cups as well. Avoid wearing high waist bikini bottoms.
  • Apple Shape – When you have a little extra on your upper body as in the tummy or the bosom but incredible legs then you are apple shaped and so the mantra is to show off. Go for halter neck, tankini, darker colors, ruched or criss cross styles. Horizontal stripes are a big no no for an apple shape body type.
  • Full Figure – Plain bikinis or V neck lines would look stunningly chic on you. Sexy caftans or sarongs will also make you look ravishing. However, try and refrain from bikini shorts or high cut bikini bottoms.
  • Straight Figure – Small busts and rear. Triangle bikini tops, ruffles or frills would look best on you. Vertical stripes or high necklines should be avoided.
  • Petite Figure – If you are lesser than 5′3 or at it, plunging necklines, high cut bikini bottoms and halter neck will do wonders to your appeal. Over-sized prints and straps should be strictly shunned.
  • So, you got to identify your body type and the next summertime you go out to shop for your favorite swimwear piece, keep the above pointers in mind and you would know what to let go and what to purchase.

    Beat the Bikini Blues

    Sunday, August 9th, 2009

    A bikini body is probably not easy to get. Slipping into a bikini could make you feel really jittery. Even most of the celebs who adorn those teeny-weeny bits of clothing have felt the shivers before they flaunt their fab bodies in designer bikinis or swimsuits.

    Contrary to the common perception, bikinis are not only for the petite-framed but come in all sizes. Adorning any piece of clothing be it swimwear or otherwise, has much to do with your confidence rather than the attire itself. Even the best of the bods can look pallor & non-glamorous sans attitude. Flaunt it like it was made for you and see the heads turning.

    How to get the Perfect Bikini Bod?

    It may be good to love yourself the way you are but taking everything for granted is not again a recommended thing. A little work-out should not be averted if that can help you get a toned body for beaches. The concern areas, when you’re planning to flaunt an itsy-bitsy bikini from your collection, would be abs, butts, thighs and the upper chest.

    A right mix of weights and a cardio-routine is essentially what you should look at for cutting that extra flab. Always remember, its not about working out for longer but much about working out smarter. A routine that exercises all your muscles and concern areas is definitely better as opposed to a longer duration of repetitive exercises.

    Also these would prove to be less time consuming and provide you quick results. So why not start preparing for next year’s swimwear and summer fiesta? Browse through Molly Brown’s and choose the perfect designer swimsuit for your new body that you shall be a proud owner of!

    As penned by the Irish novelist Mrs. Hungerford ,’The Duchess’ – “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, so make sure that every eye that beholds you is fixed with awe! Beat the bikini blues with a beautiful you!
