Bandeau Bikini

bandeau bikini

Finding the right bikini for your body is an annual ordeal. You can nearly always guarantee that if the bottoms fit, the top will be too small, and if the top fits, the bottoms will make your backside look massive. I’ve got some top tips for you on choosing the right swimwear to flatter your body shape.

Pear shaped
The pear shape is said to be British women’s most common body type and it just means you have a larger bottom half than top half. It doesn’t sound a very flattering shape, but actually it just means you are more voluptuous on the bottom half and as a plus you probably have a lovely flat stomach too! If you want to draw attention away from your bottom half, a great way to do this is by wearing a pretty and detailed bikini top to draw attention to your bust. By maximising your bust it’ll be easy for you to look sexy and voluptuous in your bikini! Try to avoid bandeau styles as these will only minimise your curves. Bikini bottoms that cut across the widest part of your hips will look the most flattering on you. Choose bikini bottoms with side ties so you can adjust them to the most flattering position for you, but keep away from boy shorts as these will make your hips look bigger. Always make sure the bottom half of your bikini fits well, as there’s nothing guaranteed to make you look bigger than ill-fitting or too tight bikini bottoms.

Apple shaped
If you’re a classic apple shape, then you probably have a less well defined waist and smaller hips. Actually it’s not that you don’t have a small waist, it’s just that you have such slim hips! On the bonus side you probably have a great bust and lovely long legs too! So focus on these and create the illusion of curves by picking bikinis with string ties, ruffles, belt, or pretty bow details. Try to steer clear of too small a bikini bottom as these won’t flatter your shape, instead go for bikini bottoms with high cut legs that lengthen your legs and draw attention away from your waist. Sexy boy shorts would also work well on you. Avoid halter necks because these will just lengthen your top half, also steer clear of horizontal stripes as these will just draw attention back to your waist. If you feel you need to cover up your tummy chose a tankini or swimsuit in a nice simple style and a pretty pattern.

Hourglass
If you’re lucky enough to have an hourglass figure then you can flaunt it in just about any style and that includes even the teeniest of bikinis! Sexy high cut bikini bottoms will look good on you and will make your legs look long. Just make sure you don’t squeeze those curves into too small a bikini because you don’t want any wardrobe malfunctions on the beach!

Slim or atheletic
A slim or atheletic figure may lack some of the curves of an hourglass, but as a bonus you’ll have a slim waist and a slight figure – lucky you! Bikini tops with ruffles or pretty prints will look flattering on you. A halter neck is also a good look as it’ll help to accentuate your bust, you could also try bikini tops with extra padding for maximum effect! You’ll look great in boy shorts and bikinis with tie sides which will help to give you a curvier look. Try to avoid boring mono block swimsuits as these will be the least flattering for you – pretty pattern and lots of feminine detail are the key for you!

Top tips for looking good on the beach!
The following are not strictly body types, but they’re probably amongst the biggest issues we women face when picking the right bikini or swimwear, so we’ve given them their very own sections!

Big bust
If this is you and you’re lucky enough to be a curvy lady, then a good choice for a larger bust is a halter neck bikini because they can give you good support as well as a sexy cleavage! It’s probably best to avoid strapless bandeau styles as they won’t give you much support and can look unflattering. Likewise bikinis with tiny tops are best avoided as they won’t provide you with enough coverage and you could well find yourself popping out all over! If you have real problems finding bikinis to fit both your top and bottom halves, then trying buying them separately so you can mix and match sizes. If support is a problem for you, then look out for underwired bikini tops or tank top bikinis with wide straps which will give you that all important extra support.

Small bust
Ladies with smaller busts are lucky because they can wear lots of different styles, including bandeau styles which only really look amazing on you! Make sure you check out bikinis with ruffles and tiny tri top bikinis because only you can wear these well! Go for bright colours on the beach this summer, and check out the Brazilian style bikinis which generally have smaller tops making them perfect for you. For extra impact, try bikinis with padding. It’s always a good idea to choose a bikini that has adjustable straps to ensure a good fit because loose bikini tops are definitely not a flattering look.

Now for the rest!
If there are any specific bits and pieces you want to conceal or hide, take a look at our checklist below on how to deal with the most common body shape issues:

Last but not least!
Just remember to find the perfect bikini or swimsuit before you go on your hols. Prices at holiday destinations can be very high and sizes can vary widely to UK sizes. Plus you don’t want to waste any of your precious holiday time hunting down the perfect bikini – so make sure you take it with you!

Bikinis Rule The World

Image via Wikipedia

In Italy, perhaps one thing that would make a trip to the beach more memorable and perfect is walking on the beach in a bikini that is beautiful enough to dazzle onlookers and significant others.

Designers of bikinis mostly get their inspiration from movies. Popular bikini styles nowadays contain floral prints, striped, or checkered patterns. Black bikinis remain in style, but white, purple, and blue swimwear also sells. They can also have embellishments such as beads, crystals, smocks, stones, laces, and even embroidery.

Throughout the years, bikinis have never gone out of style. In fact, skimpier bikinis are becoming more and more widely accepted. One can show off her curves and her assets with a bikini. As time went on, bikinis experienced their own evolution. Tankinis came out, as well as bandinis. Tankinis have longer tops, while bandinis have only a strip of straight cloth to serve as its top. Another variation is the camkini, which features a bikini with a top made in the style of a camisole.

The customer can get whatever she wants with the wide variety of bikini colors and styles available today. Aqua is an eye-catching color and it would look good on a bikini as well. Pastel shades are appropriate for softer and more somber personalities, while outgoing women can opt for tropical or flower prints embellished with beads. Velvet bikinis and red bikinis are also available for those who want a more daring look. For full-figured women, there are lace bikinis that can be adjusted for a better fit. Animal prints are also available for those who are not afraid to strut their stuff.

There are bikinis available for all women of different sizes and backgrounds. So much can be done with so little cloth, and women should not be afraid to take advantage of the promise of beauty and a perfect summer that bikinis offer.

Tommy Hilfiger

Tommy Hilfiger
Job at Tommy Hilfiger? Any Hilfiger employees willing to offer suggestions?

I’ve recently put together a resume and cover letter for a Sales Associate position at Tommy Hilfiger. I was just wondering if anyone knows what they look for in a person when they are hiring? This is because I have no previous work experience. . and I’ve recently turned 16. . and I also really like their clothing. So. . . if anyone, such as current or ex-employees, is willing to help me out. . it’d be great. Thank you :D !

Wear like one Tommy Hilfiger shirt or something. But if you really wanna know what they want you to look like…dress like you see in their ads. Dress like that and they will be certain to hire you. Be confident and smile, and thats basically it!

Hope you get the job. =]

Denim Skirt

Why is a denim skirt considered dressing up?

Too often on occasions that require dressing up, I have seen women show up in denim skirts. How is this dressing up? Denim skirts are at best casual wear, I can’t see how they are ever appropriate dress-up attire. Here’s a simple rule: If wearing denim pants would be inappropriate, so is wearing a denim skirt!

For trailer trash – it is dressing up! It’s all in your POV!
