Like many, if you are not at your goal weight, swimsuit shopping ranks up there with dental work. While attempting to find a perfect swimsuit, it will help if you consider a few tips.
First it is important to accentuate the parts of your body you are happy with while drawing less attention to those parts that need work. If you have great legs, show them off in a suit with a higher cut leg. If you want to conceal your tummy but flaunt your bust, look for a style with a push-up bra as well as tummy panel which will flatten your midsection.
Choosing the right pattern can also help. A one-piece with a lighter color in the bust area and darker on the bottom will draw more attention to the top. To slenderize the torso, look for a pattern that will draw the eye inward. For an hourglass figure effect, look for a diagonal pattern or those with angled patterns across the body.
You are not limited to a one-piece. Now many two-piece suits can be purchased separately, so you can build your own perfect suit. This will also allow you to purchase different size tops and bottoms if needed. If you feel your tummy is not ready for a two-piece- try a tankini. This style has a longer top, almost like a tank top which helps cover your midsection. There are also many shorts bottoms which can hide your butt and thigh area.
Don’t forget a stylish cover-up. There are many great sarongs, tunics and sundresses that can fit every body style. If you want the focus to be on your upper body, chose a sarong in a dark solid color. A tunic can show off great legs. Sundresses are great for all sizes and are a great way to cover up as you head out for the beach or poolside.
