Hey lovely ladies it’s time to talk swimwear!

The last few weeks have given us a taste of what the hot summer months have in store. The heat is on! Temperatures are steadily rising and this can only mean one thing… beach weather!

The countdown to the official first dip is upon us and Curvy Queens everywhere are on the hunt for the perfect swimsuit. With so many options to choose from what’s a curvy girl to do? One piece or two piece; print or solid; tankini or bikini? At times, the choices can be overwhelming. So… to help make the process a little easier, let’s talk curvy swimwear.

When you are blessed with curves, finding the perfect swimsuit can be, well… an adventure, to say the least. The goal is to be sexy, comfortable and fierce without having to dedicate the better part of your summer to searching for the perfect look. There’s no need to stress. There are so many flattering options for the curvy body. Here are a few tips and tricks to help kick start your search.

Accentuate The Positive

Decide which features you want to flaunt and flatter and then choose styles that best put them on display. Want to show off your awesome cleavage? Choose a low cut wrap bodice or a strapless look. Prefer to highlight a sexy waist instead? Then try a halter bikini style or tankini.

One piece suits with strategically placed prints or ruching are also great for drawing the eye toward a sexy middle. If the view from the back is more your priority, consider a flattering high waist boy short or a look with a sexy ruffle detail at the back. A simple low cut back in a classic style is also always fabulous for making a statement coming and going.

No matter what look you prefer, choose a style that accentuates the positive and flatters you in all the right ways. And remember… you don’t have to stop at just one.

Don’t Be Afraid to Mix & Match

A well-fitting bikini top is the foundation of a flawless beach or poolside look so don’t be afraid to mix and match not only prints and shapes but also brands to find the best fit. Larger busts can find support and lift with underwire styles, criss-cross back straps or a halter for added lift and support. A great way to get more mileage from your swimwear wardrobe is by investing in a mid-rise bikini bottom in classic black. You can then build a fun collection of coordinating styles, prints and solids to pair on top.

Colour is SO much FUN!

Swimwear is a fabulous way to express your personal style and embrace your inner diva. There’s no shortage of flirty florals, geometric prints, stripes and vibrant hues to choose from. It’s fun and easy to get creative with vibrant prints and bold colour. Classic black, blue or red are always a hit. They are a great foundation for any fabulous swimwear collection but adding a pop of colour can be a great way to make a statement and stand out in a crowd.
