Two words: swimsuit season.. DUN DUN DUN!


Summer is here and I couldn't be more excited! It won't be long before everyone will be finding themselves lounging by the pool or sitting at the beach. Two words: Swimsuit season....  Two words dreaded by for most women. You may swear that there is not one style that could possibly do you any justice while you are out there flaunting yourself for all to see. And if you are anything like me, you made promises to yourself to go to the gym more and eat less, but lets be honest, that never quite happened. Therefore the first tip to shopping for a new suit this summer is to make sure you pick a style that you feel most confident in. If you aren't comfortable with how it looks on you, chances are it is just going to sit in your drawer all summer long. 


There are four basic types of suits: bikinis, tankinis, monokinis, and one-pieces, but within these categories are a million more styles.


 I have provided helpful tips and suggestions to guide you while shopping this season. Hey you never know, wearing a bathing suit just might not be the worst thing ever!



  • If you need more support make sure to go for a halter top or a top with an underwire. Wouldn't want anything to come loose while jumping waves!




  • If you are trying to have a slimmer look in your hips, don't get crazy with the prints. This will bring less attention to this area. Try a bottom that has a higher cut. This will create the look of longer legs and who doesn't want that. 




  • If the cleavage fairy skipped over you, stay away from bandeau tops. They don't do any justice for smaller busted figures.  Don't be afraid of the push-ups or tops with underwire!



  • Choose a print you like! That is what I am almost most drawn to. Typically this print will still come in your desired style. 



1. The One-Piece- For those that want a little more coverage and aren't ready to "bare it all."

2. The Tankini and Monokini- For those who want a little less coverage than the average one piece but still aren't ready to show as much as a bikini. Monokinis have known to be considered to be the best of both worlds getting a little bit more "riskay" than the tankini but leaving a little bit of mystery.

3. Bikins- Majority of your bathing suit stores these days are 95% bikini style. There is a lot of controversy about what kind of body type should and shouldn't wear this style as well as how old you should be. I say, if you got it, flaunt it!

Most importantly this summer, stand up tall with a bright smile on your face. Oh and don't forget to make sure you stay hydrated and protect yourself from the sun! Having a positive attitude will outshine any insecurities you may have, especially during the season we sometimes dread; swimsuit season.






Keep it classy,
