Finding the Perfect Maternity Bathing Suits

May 16th, 2010 | Author: admin

With swimsuit season rapidly approaching and already here for many people in the warmer states, women are making mad dashes to multiple stores in order to find the perfect swimsuit. For women who are pregnant, this already frantic time of finding the perfect suit to compliment your body becomes a bit more complicated, or so it would seem. In actuality, the array of swimwear designed specifically for expectant mothers is vast and full of variety. With swimsuits tailored specifically for your changing body, maternity swimwear designers have ensured that you can easily find the right suit for your body and style. Know what to look for and you will be sure to find a comfortable yet incredibly stylish maternity swimsuit.

For expectant mothers who are ready to show some belly, a bikini is a fashionable yet comfy option. Bikinis are great, as they allow plenty of room for your baby bump to grow. You will never feel constricted or tightness on the belly. Bikinis provide sexiness while still being classy and functional. Belabumbum Maternity designs the Aqua Ring Maternity Bikini, a popular style this season, as it exemplifies the hot summer trend of the floral print. The adjustable tie halter top provides support and the ability to fit the suit specifically to your body. With stylish silver rings at the bust and hips, this is a fashionable yet functional option. The Jill Boy Bikini is another great bikini option. For women who want the unrestricted feeling of a bikini but prefer a bit more coverage on their bottom, the Jill’s boy shorts are perfect. Super stylish yet providing that extra bit of coverage, you will be sure to feel comfortable all day long. For expectant mothers looking to bare a bit of skin while maintaining their comfort and style, a bikini is definitely the way to go.

If a bikini is not quite right for you but you would still like to show a bit of your belly off, a tankini is a fantastic swimwear option. Maternity swimwear designers love the tankini, as it is functional yet fashionable. Designed with an emphasis on the empire waist and then gently flowing over your belly, the tankini is incredibly figure flattering. One of my personal favorites this season is the new Coco O-Ring Tankini from Maternal America which, with its beaded tie neckline and deep green shade, perfectly exemplifies the tribal/safari trend so popular this season. The adjustable necktie and side tie bottoms are great, as they allow you to fit the suit perfectly to your body.

Comfy yet stylish, you will look and feel great! Another tankini which is very popular this season is the Sweet Heart in Black from Prego Maternity. This swimsuit, with its sweetheart neckline and wider halter straps, has a cute retro look. The bust is incredibly supportive as it has an adjustable tie at the neck. Cute bottoms complete this stylish maternity swimsuit! Overall, a tankini allows you to have the feel of a bikini with a bit more coverage.

For those women looking for a stylish and sexy one-piece, there are several great maternity swimwear options. A one piece is a fantastic choice, as you will have great mobility and never worry about readjusting your suit. The One Piece Keyhole Swimsuit from Maternal America is sexy and stylish yet functional. The adjustable halter tie provides versatility while the keyhole design at the bust is very fashionable. With plenty of room in the belly to grow, you will want to wear this suit throughout your pregnancy! The Jade Empire Tank from Prego Maternity is another gorgeous one-piece option. Its beautiful rich color is eye-catching and incredibly flattering, as the jewel tone looks great against all skin types. With wide adjustable straps and an empire waist, the suit is both flattering and functional. Whether you are relaxing by the pool or swimming laps, this suit will keep you feeling and looking great! One-pieces create a sleek and streamlined look, while ensuring your comfort throughout the day.

Overall, finding the style that is right for you while shopping for maternity swimwear ensures you will be comfortable and feel beautiful throughout the summer. There are many options available for expectant mothers, from bikinis to one-pieces, and with a little searching you can find the perfect option for your personal fashion and lifestyle.

The Dreaded Swimsuit

October 2nd, 2008 | Author: admin

Very few people, unless they live in an area where they are beach bound all of the time and it is part of the “uniform,” are comfortable picking out a bathing suit for summer, much less wearing one. In an attempt to demystify the process and to help you find the style that will enhance your body, here are a few pointers.

Let’s face it. A bathing suit doesn’t cover much (some less than others) so we can’t hide behind layers of fabric…or can we?

3 Don’ts For Just About Everyone: Boy Shorts or Boy Legs String tie halter tops The big poofy skirted suits

I had a client who wears a size 2 shopping for a suit and she insisted that she wanted boy shorts because they “covered more.” So I decided to humour her and see if she has learned anything from our months of wardrobe shopping. She tried on the bottoms and let out a yelp. “These are just awful,” she replied. And it is true. They are just awful on just about everyone.

String halter-tops fall into that category as well. Unless you have very pert breasts and not very large ones at that, the string halter is a no-no. That would be followed by the poofy (yes, that is a made-up word) skirts. Many older people will buy them out of modesty, as will heavier women. Please don’t. There are other ways to cover up that won’t make you look like a beached whale.

When shopping for a bathing suit, go to a store that has the tops and bottoms separately if you are buying a two-piece. Many of us are not the same size in both places and a swim suit needs to fit properly.

Speaking of two-pieces, who should be wearing what style? Say “no” to the two pieces if there is flab where there shouldn’t be. OK here we go! Hold on to your swim suit!

7 Simple Rules to Choose a Swim Suit:

Choose a color and print that is flattering to your skin tone and body type. To enhance small breasts, use a print on top with a top that ties behind the neck. To minimize large breasts, use a tank style top but use caution. Avoid the uni-breast look. Slim the hips by not having the suit bottom rest on the area you want to minimize. Long torsos will look longer in a one piece. Try a tankini with a little shin showing in the middle to shorten your body. Hide a stomach with a one-piece that has a little gathering at the middle (a bit extra fabric). No waist? Create one with a one piece that is cut out at the sides or that has a sash or belt.
For accessories: Flip flops or sandals with a little heel or thickness will make you look less dumpy as you walk. Wear a sarong or skirt to cover up your legs if you want modesty or are trying to hide your thighs when not in the water. Choose a print or color that is flattering and tie it in a location that does not emphasize a bad area. A cotton gauze or sheer cover up is great for getting from place to place but remember that the sun will go through it. Wear sun block at all times.

We could go on and on about swim wear fashions and styles but the best advice is to go to a specialty store and try on different patterns and styles until you get one that is right for you.

Have a great summer!
