I love summer
Summer
The seasons changed, so now its time to revamp our wardrobe and prepare for the summer.
If the thought of bearing all in a bikini is a bit daunting fret not, I have found a range of the best figure-fixing swimwear for all shapes. And plus some handy tips on how to make the most of your assets instead of getting lost in them.
Handy tips
‘My bust is big but my hips are small’
Don’t wear bikini tops that have volume-adding detail such as ruffles or beading
Do try and shop for bikinis that come in actual cup sizes
Do shop round for bras with underwire which will give extra support
Do shop for bikini’s sold separately so you won’t be in a situation where you’ve bought a size 16 bra set when you’re a size 10.
‘Making the most out of your assets’
Don’t feel that because you’re bigger you have to wear bigger; in fact wearing a little less is more flattering especially on your bum. So navigate away from big pants or boy shorts.Don’t be shy of wearing bold prints; because of your balanced proportion you can carry it well
Pear shapes to balance you out, buy bikinis with detailing on your top; you’ll get perfect curves in an instant.
