Plus Size Bathing Suits

By G Kharchenko We can learn to bridge the gap between size and attractiveness by changing the focus from body size to body shape and the overall coordination and style of the trendy clothing we choose to wear. In other words, you can know what makes you look attractive, and why. You can learn the secrets of how to look put together, and know that the image you portray is flattering to your body and personal coloring, appropriate, and stylish. You can learn to look in the mirror and like what you see. Have you ever noticed a plus size woman who isn’t particularly beautiful either in face or figure, but still somehow appears very attractive, confident, and stylish? She’s working with her assets and minimizing her shortcomings. You can, too. Don’t ever believe thin equals beautiful. There are many thin women in the world who don’t know how to dress to flatter themselves! Beauty is style, not the size of your body! Its confidence, and, above all else, it’s a positive attitude. Recognizing and learning to use proportion, scale, color, and perspective …

By G Kharchenko Our media images reinforce this negative thinking. Magazines, TV, and movies portray unreasonable physical expectations that even healthy, active, normal teenage girls have a hard time living with, The size message says if you’re large (large being a relative term, of course some girls see anything over size 6 as too large) you are guilty of breaking some sort of cultural taboo, that you shouldn’t be taking up so much space, that you must be out of control. Larger women are made to feel they have no right to look good or feel good about themselves, as if a woman’s only value is in her degree of attractiveness, Sometimes even very thin but tall girls are made to the ungainly and unattractive because they fall outside the bounds of the popular ideal of beauty, (Ironically, many fashion models, who average 5’10″ or more, feel awful about themselves because of their height, even while representing the ultimate image of glamour and beauty.)…

By Phoenix Lindbergh Are you speeding up your diet and pills for your upcoming swimming party? I must confess that I know how it feels when you only have a week of shedding off those unwanted fats. I had this experience, one time, when someone called me up for a date. It was not the usual date of just the two of us together, but we were with the guy’s family. Oh my gosh! I needed to rush everything — from my swim wear shopping to my dieting. I had only three days to do my best with my excess fats. So, I tried to wake up early the next day and tried to do sit-ups. Unfortunately, I decided to sleep again that morning. I had to think hard what to do with my fats because I had to make a good impression. Yes, it might be boring to you, but I believe in “first impressions last.” Just imagine if they saw my triple layered tummy! Uhh…

By Kelly Marshall In the 1880 ‘tourist guide’ Handbook of Florida newcomers to the beach were advised to remain fully covered in woolen garments from head to toe. We have all snickered at the old time photographs of women dressed in bathing suits that leave everything to the imagination even fashion sense! Since the modern bikini first made a splash in 1946, it has been turning heads on the beach. Its inventor, French engineer Louis Reard named it after a nuclear weapon testing site, Bikini Atoll. He reasoned that the stir his invention would create would be akin to a nuclear blast.

By Hallidae Thomason Summer is quickly approaching, and I for one want to be out and enjoying the nice weather as soon as it begins. If you are anything like me, than the winter months always take a bit of a toll on your body. Inspite of my strongest efforts to stay in shape and to not gain extra winter weight, it seems that the cold wins out and too often I choose to curl up with a good book rather than jump on the treadmill for a run. With summer officially comes the season of bathing suits, and I am finally ready to kick it into gear and prepare myself. If you are wanting to get into some bathing suits within the next few weeks, then here are some simple things you can do to prepare yourself and your body. And don’t worry, I’ll be doing them all too. First, drink water. Drinking water is one of the best ways to purify and cleanse your body, but it also does great things to your skin. No one wants to put on a bathing suit and look ashy and dried out. Try adding a few extra glasses of water each day and you will see improvements in your skin and also a reduction in …

By Christy Diaz The reason so many of us hate shopping for plus size bathing suits is because we often don’t know what style is the best for our figure. It’s easy to pick the same unflattering style year after year. But, why not take a risk, and explore some new styles in plus size bathing suits? Let’s review the most common figure complaints and find the most flattering styles. Wide Hips, Big Thighs This is probably the most common figure problem, but it can easily be camouflaged with the right suit. Look for one or two piece plus size bathing suits with high cut bottoms that will give the appearance of longer legs. If you are not comfortable with this much exposure, try a flirty swim skirt or sarong to cover the area. Avoid, at all costs, boy cut shorts. They can make your hips and thighs appear even larger and wider. Tummy Bulge Who doesn’t have this problem? One-piece styles with shirring can mask an ample tummy. Suits with deep, plunging necklines will draw the eye upwards and away from the bulge. Stay away from skimpy bikinis and low-rise bottoms. Busty Do you have too much of a good thing? Yes, cleavage can look great, but you don’t want to be falling out of your suit. Look for swimwear with built-in underwire bras, or halter tops for extra support. Don’t reach for that string bikini, unless you want your fellow beachgoers to get…
