Women’s Swimwear & Some Weighty Issues

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

The season of sun, surf and sand brings happiness for some but nervous pangs for others. Yes we’re talking about summers and the weighty issues that make many women feel the jitters about wearing a swimsuit. But when women’s swimwear has become so fashionably advanced and there is a thing such as ‘plus size designer swimwear’ existing then why do woman with a little extra on the bone still cringe at the thought of adorning sexy swimwear?

Women’s swimwear in fabulous designs is usually available in all sizes from small to large and even XL.  But that just solves only some part of the problem. Sometimes even plus size swimwear can’t resolve those burden-on-the-head weighty issues. Along with wearing your own size it’s also about wearing a bikini that does not make you look fat.

And what does not make you look fat will obviously make you look better. :)

Fuller bust? Voluptuous is always in so be happy! Thank god for the curves. However, before you revel in too much glory, let us tell you that fuller busts and triangle tops are not the best combination.  Bandeaus and square neck bikini tops may look just perfect! Even strapless bikini tops would look stunning.

Belly troubles? Too much flab for comfort on the belly? Go for flattering one piece swimsuits. Wearing a two piece will draw all the attention on the area you wanted ignored. Also please leave alone the low-rise and choose high waist-ed classic swimwear to tuck it all in. Retro may be the way to go too.

Heavy on the hip? Don’t worry because boy cut bikini bottoms and boy briefs are there to rescue! Skimpy bottoms won’t be of much help in turning on the heat.

Women’s designer swimwear does not have to be a nightmare if you choose not for your heart but for your body and weight.

Bikini Style Guide for Different Body Types

Monday, October 12th, 2009

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.
