Swimsuits!!

Well ladies...judging from the title of the post, you can see that today's post will be about swimsuits. What about swimsuits you ask...well we thought we make this post as useful as possible and make it over the right swimsuit for your body type. We know it's hot outside and the 4th of July is coming up...so this is the perfect time to do this post so it'll give you time to purchase a swimsuit or two! So sit back, relax, take notes, and go out and buy your perfect swimsuit!

Body Type 1: Small on the top

If you are small on the top...meaning small cup size.. you can do one of these swimsuit top styles:

•  A swimsuit top with fringe or ruffles. Fringe and ruffles with give the illusion that you have something up top. 
• A swimsuit top with a touch of padding. Maybe try one that is printed so it can take away from the look of padding.
• A swimsuit top with under-wire or a banded bottom to give you a lift to add cleavage.
• A swimsuit top with adjustable straps at the shoulders and or/ around the neck. You can adjust them to lift things up and add cleavage as well.  
• A bandeau top will look great as well since you have a small bust.. Find one with a little padding and a print. 

Here are some swimsuit links :

•  Scalloped Floral Triangle Top and Bottoms. <--- Scalloping adds optical illusion with adjustable strings. 
• Floral Ruffle Bandeau Top and Ruffle Bottom <--- Light padding, ruffles and print, and a halter strap to give you a lift.
• Rhinestone Studded Bikini <--- Light, removable padding. Embellishment up top. Adjustable top to tighten and lift. 

Body Type 2: Full up Top

• An under-wire swimsuit top. These tops give you support and lift just like a bra. 
• A swimsuit top with a banded halter. These type of tops give you support and coverage and can be less obvious than under-wire. 
• A thick strap halter swim top. These tops secure your chest. Thin string/straps can accentuate your top in an unflattering way, almost as if you're popping out. 
• A V-Neck One piece. These swimsuits accentuate your top half because they show off the right amount of cleavage versus covering them up and making you look really top heavy. 

Here are some swimsuit links for your type of suggested swimsuits:

One-Piece Halter Swimsuit <---- Self-Tie Halter to tighten or loosen for support. V-Neck to provide cleavage.

Push-Up Banded Halter and Matching Bottoms <---- Removable padding so you wont add more up top. The banded halter is wide for added support. 

Push-Up Bandeau Top and Bottoms <---- Removable padding. Under-wire to provide support.

Body Type 3: A Bit of a Tummy

• One-Piece swimsuits with ruching are great! The ruching  camouflages whatever you have to hide and the detailing takes away from it.
• Belted One-Piece. A belted one-piece will cinch the waist and creates a the illusion of an hourglass figure. 
•  If you want to do a two-piece swimsuit, try a tankini. The top will hide whatever you want. Make sure it's not too short or too tight because that could be unflattering.
• Black. Black can be slimming. So try a tankini in black or a one-piece in black. With some embellishing up top to take away from the mid-section. 
• Bold florals and prints take attention away from the mid-section.
• Vertical and diagonal stripes are best. They elongate your figure. Stay away from horizontal stripes because they can make you look wide. 

Here are some suggested swimsuits:

Push -Up Halter Tankini and Bottom <---- Come in black. Tankini to cover-up mid-section. Back Detailing to take away from front. 

Zebra Print Tankini <---- Bold print. Contrasted Empire Waistband to cinch in the waist. 

Ruched One-Piece <---- Ruching  camouflages whatever you would like to hide and takes away from it as well. 

Body Type 4: Big Bottom 

• A swimsuit with a plunging neckline. This type of one-piece will bring attention up top and balance you out. 
• A swimsuit with a darker bottom and lighter top. The darker bottom will give you a slimming effect and the lighter top will bring attention up top. 
• A Low-Cut bottom. This type of bottom can slim you down a bit versus a high-rise bottom that can ride up and give you wedgie. 
• Avoid boy shorts. The can make your bottom look bigger. 

Here are some links to suggested swimsuits:

Wireless Push-Up Monokini <---- One-Piece with a plunging neckline. Jewel Trim at hips, kind of low-rise to slim the bottom.

Low-Rise Bottom and Top <---- Low-Rise to slim the bottom and you an mix the top and bottom to do a darker bottom and lighter top.

Cut-Out Ruffle Monokini <---- Plunging neckline and ruffle detailing up top to take attention from bottom. Low-rise bottom to also slim you.

Body Type 5: Lean Figure

Few things are off limits for people with lean figures. Anything goes to accentuate your lean figure or give you curves.  

• Swimsuits with horizontal stripes can make you look wider if you want to add some curves.
• Boy-Shorts bottoms. These bottoms can make you look like you have somewhat of a booty. 
• Light colors and small prints. Since you're lean/petite you want dainty prints and colors so you are not "over-powered".
• Ruffles and Fringe/Frills will add more volume up top, bottom, or both wherever that detailing is.
• Regular string bikinis. These look great since you are so lean if you you want to show it off. 

Here are some suggested swimsuits:

• Floral Cinched Bandeau Bikini
• Ruffle Cheeky Bottom and Top <---- Both bottom and top has ruffles to add volume. 
• Seaside Stripes Bikini <---- Horizontal stripes to give you curves/widening effect you are lean. 
• Boyshorts and Tops <---- The boy-shorts make you look as if you have a butt. Then you can mix and match the top depending on if you are top heavy or not.
