The One and Only One-Piece Swim Suit FASHION

Roxana Hernandez Columnist After years of having the bikini take a stand as the hottest swim wear option, the onepiece swimsuit currently took back the title. Yes, showing skin can be sexy and it helps you tan fully, but if you think about it, bikinis can become pretty boring. When you pick up a one-piece suit, you have more fabric to work with like the freedom in design, and chances of having something different from another. Let’s face it ladies, staying in shape is harder than it looks and sometimes wearing shorts and a shirt at the pool party or at the beach can make us feel insecure as wearing a bikini. A wonderful option to feel confident, sexy, and trendy is wearing a one-piece swimsuit. It looks great on anyone and there are different styles to flatter each body. Here are a few tips to consider when picking out your one-piece swim suit.

If you are heavy on the top, it is always best to go with a halter neckline. It creates an illusion when having thicker straps on your top half, and helps with better support as well. For the pear shaped ladies it is best to try color blocking, adjustable straps, and fun patterns. If you have an hourglass figure, you have more options to work with when picking out a suit. You can play with the neckline and plain color look best on this figure. Flat-Chested Friends, if you want the illusion of a heavier top, fill out your frame by having ruffles at the top, embellishments that are larger, or more detail in the top half instead of the bottom half. Long torsos can be shaped curvier when using prints and motif’s, ruffles or embellishments in the bottom half. For my narrow hipped girl friends, the same goes to you. Focus on your bottom by looking for embellishment, ruffles, fullness, or prints on your lower half.
