Ready to Hit the Beach? Tips for Choosing the Perfect Bathing Suit Everyone has their own idea of what looks best when it comes to swimwear-and all along the beach the common bond from coast to coast is that the bikini is, and probably always will be, the number one choice when it comes to swimsuits. Men love the bikini for a variety of reasons and women, well, they just find themselves more or less obsessing over what suit looks the best and compliments their figure most appropriately. Isn't it crazy how you can just love a particular bathing suit so much that you want the same suit in every color you can find it in? The bottom line-everyone has their own favorite bathing suit to wear to the beach . Whether it's a sleek bottomed bikini in the brightest hue of yellow with a triangle top or a halter style top paired with a full back bottom in a solid blue, gold or red, there's literally a bikini cut that fits every body shape. It's as if those in the fashion world really do realize that no two women are shaped alike! The key to a beach-ready look is finding that perfect swimsuit for your shape and style. Pear Shaped Figures Women who have a pear figure typically have a fuller lower half than they do the upper half. This means that there's plenty going on below the waist in the hips, thighs and butt but not always so much to catch the eye within the shoulders, bust and waist. These women must pay close attention to the emphasis that is placed on accentuating their upper half to balance their look. Dark, solid colored bottoms paired with an accented top that includes beads, ruffles or even a print can do wonders. These styles will draw attention to the entire figure as you walk down the beach . Hourglass Figures While every woman strives for that hourglass figure, the truth of the matter is, most are not blessed with such. Women of this shape tend to have equally proportionate upper and lower halves. Their bust is typically proportionate to their hips and thighs. The best bathing suit for a woman with an hourglass figure will be supportive and fluid both top and bottom. Bottoms should have average sides that are not too thick nor too thin such as those thin ties on the sides, look for a bottom that has thick ties. Avoid boy short styles as these can take away from the natural curves that you strive so hard to keep. Inverted Triangle Figures Women who have an inverted triangle figure tend to have a large bust and shoulders with smaller hips and thighs. These women look best when they balance out their top half with the bottom which means they have to accentuate the lower half to draw attention away from the bust. Tops should be solid and dark colored with printed or brighter bottoms. Hipsters and boy shorts are the way to go for this body type drawing attention to the lower half. Bottoms that include an over-skirt are an excellent addition to create a truly beach ready style for this body type. Rectangle Figures Some women have a toned and athletic beach body that is very straight with minimal curves, narrow shoulders, bust and hips. These athletic, rectangle figured women must create the illusion of curves by incorporating triangle or halter tops with printed styles with hipster or boy short bottoms. By accentuating both the top and the bottom, women can create the ideal beach look for an athletic figure.
