Sizzle on the Sand or Look Peachy Poolside
by Dee Becker
WE’RE all shapes and sizes but we have one thing in common - a fear of revealing more than we’d really like to. Thankfully there are some simple rules you can follow to ensure you look and feel your very best on those summer hols.
Don’t buy swimwear in a hurry. Whatever your style, make sure that it’s your best holiday investment. After all, it is all you’ll be wearing most of the time.
• REMEMBER a stylist’s top tip: make the best of your good bits and draw attention away or disguise those that aren’t.
• ONLY BUY what suits your shape and not just what’s in fashion (although one of this summer’s hottest trends, the ruched 40’s one-piece is one of the most flattering styles).
• BIKINI’S should be reserved for those of us blessed with a firm tummy.
• TANKINI’S are a great option if your tummy is not at its best and some now come with tummy control briefs.
• CONTRARY to popular belief, boy-shorts only flatter slim athletic figures.
• ONE-PIECE SWIMSUITS suit all body shapes and create a long, smooth silhouette. There are plenty of styles to choose from, many with wonderful hidden control panels that no-one will know about except you.
• COVER UP with style. Choose a loose flowing kaftan or maxi-dress to take you from beach to bar.
• ADD GLAMOUR with a few well chosen accessories like hoop earrings, bangles, beads and bejewelled sandals.
• Stand up straight and hold your head high. It will take inches off your tummy and add inches on your height.
