Bikinis are Sometimes a Little Trickier

As soon as the down payment is made on the holiday, anxiety often sets in about bearing all on the beach. Bikinis and swimsuits are not exactly the most discreet items of clothing, and given that most people would never dream of parading themselves about in just their underwear, it is no wonder that the prospect is a slightly scary one.

Instead of hitting the gym or starting out on a new fad diet, however, why not simply try to learn to love the skin you're in and make the most of your assets, just as they are? There are plenty of flattering swimwear solutions available if you are willing to take the time to seek them out.

If the mere idea of donning a bikini in public makes you uncomfortable, simply don't do it! Go for a stylish one piece instead. If you are still feeling a little shaky, add a sarong, a kaftan or a tunic to start with and build up your confidence one step at a time.

There are all kinds of swimsuits available that can boost your bust, suck in your tummy, shrink your bum and give you all the comfortable support you require. If it's a confidence boost you need, a great one piece is definitely the way forward.

Bikinis are sometimes a little trickier. The most popular ones are the string designed halter necks that tie up so they can be adjusted to fit a wide range of sizes. However, the fact is that this design is not flattering on everyone and offers very little support to those with bigger busts.

A good trick is to mix and match separates. There is now a good number of high street retailers that allow you to choose a bikini top in one size and briefs in another. Not all of us are the same size on the top as we are on the bottom, so instead of trying to squeeze one half into something that doesn't fit, pick and choose your sizes from a range of possibilities.

Those boasting boyish figures usually have it easy when it comes to bikini buying. They don't have to worry about unsightly tums and bums and cleavage support is rarely an issue. However, if you are looking for ways to boost your bust look out for halter neck gel bikinis that will give you that extra bit of confidence.

Confidence is paramount. If you are not comfortable, you are sure to damage your confidence so make comfort your first priority. Why not go for a skin boosting spa treatment and a pedicure before you leave? These are all things that will help you to feel fabulous in the skin you're in.

Summer is nearly here and we will be spending more time wearing swimsuits and some of the newer performance fabrics.

1—To slow down the fading of color soak your swimsuit in a mixture of vinegar and water for about half an hour. Use one spoon vinegar and one quart of water.

2—If the swimsuit is already saturated with clean water then it absorbs less chlorinated water, so shower with fresh water before you move into the pool.

3—After you finish the swimming pool fun do wash your swimsuit with cool water and rinse a little.

Essential Swimwear For Summer wear

60% of Brits are planning an overseas holiday this year and even those staying at home are bound spend at least a few days at the beach this summer. So this means it is time to upgrade your swimwear in keeping with this year's trends.

If you want to look hotter than Megan Fox in Transformers then you must wear something floral. The best colours are pinks, greens and blue and don't shy away from all over flower power either. If you pick the right style one piece, you won't end up looking like your gran. Look for swimsuits with cut away sections and string straps to add a bit of sex appeal.

Traditional swimsuits are making a return this year although forget all stereotypes they are now much edgier and more flattering than ever before. Tan lines may be more awkward but swimsuits are high on the fashion stakes in summer. Again, look for interesting and quirky designs that stop your one-piece from looking like something you would wear at your school swimming gala circa 1995.

Another 80s trend to get a revamp is animal print and it has lost all of its sleazy and trashy connotations. Monochrome 'zebra' or 'panther' are top choices for the most fashion conscious but colourful versions of animal prints are just as trendy.

Bikinis are even more incy-bitsy this summer. The most common is the old favourite 'triangle-shaped' top but bandeau style two pieces are also being pumped on the high street. Bandeau can be strapless or more on trend is to have the straps in the middle, going around your neck.

Ahoy Sailor: nautical is a key look this summer. Anything with anchors, stripes and ropes in red, blue and white will score you brownie points.

Seeing as summer proper is three to four months away, you have time to prepare. Getting into a bikini, unless you are a Victoria's Secret model, isn't exactly a pleasant experience. We are basically walking around in our underwear so getting bikini-fit will help you feel a little more confident when parading yourself in your waterproof smalls.

At least 30 minutes of activity a day is required to tone those legs and tum, and this does have to be more than walking to and from the bus stop. Go for a jog or bike ride and do some sit ups in front of Eastenders.

Just before b-day (beach day) check in with your beautician for some last minute buffing, exfoliating, waxing and tanning. Being ready for summer doesn't have to be that hard.

When a woman becomes pregnant, her body rapidly changes. From her growing tummy, to swollen ankles and increased breast size, everything that she once recognized is now changing.

But there are many pretty bras to chose from, so look around and see if there is one that stands out and makes you feel that you just have to wear that.

Most women first chose the average white, light weight bra that offers flexibility and comfort. These bras are made of light weight fabric, that is flexible and easy to wear. They clean up nicely and are easily to utilize when feeding the baby.

Finding The Perfect Pregnant Lingerie -The Knit city

Buying an expecting mother a pretty piece of pregnant lingerie is a wonderful way to celebrate her pregnancy. This is a time of enormous change physically, as well as emotionally, and although she is very excited about her new found condition, she can start feeling less and less attractive.





There are many changes that take place with a woman that is expecting, but not all of them are physical. Emotionally, she can start feeling unattractive as she grows bigger, and can feel like she is no longer sexy to the man that loves her.

Finding fun and sexy lingerie could be just the ticket for making an expectant mother feel good about herself. Putting on a little sexy, red lace nightie that provides room for her belly and shows off her beautiful glow, can make her feel pretty and attractive again.

There are many choices when it comes to lingerie for expecting mothers. From short little lacy nighties, to sexy and silky teddies, there is a variety of colors, styles and fabrics that she can choose from. Buying something unrelated to her pregnancy, and more related to her femininity, can often make all the difference in a woman's emotional health.

When looking for something special for a pregnant woman, check out all the lingerie shops that specialize in pregnant lingerie. The fit will be comfortable, the look will be sexy, and the woman will feel wonderful. The woman inside will be celebrated as much as her pregnancy, which provides for overall emotional health and happiness.

Looking for pregnant lingerie is not difficult, and she will respond in a very, happy, grateful way. Taking the time to help her feel good about herself will reflect on her overall emotional health. This will lead to a happy, healthy and welcomed pregnancy.
