Splish-Splash in Style!

This summer take a dip in cool waters with chic suits that will definitely make a splash! Whether you like to go for teeny tiny bikinis or modest one-pieces, this season there's a swimuit that will suit your needs.

If you'd like to create the appearance of an ample bust, try a suit with ruffles across the chest. To tame tummies, one pieces in solid colors will work best. To slim thighs, go for bottoms that tie at the hip. Whatever your shape, the key to looking fabulous is to exude onfidence. Just be sure to use sunscreen!

What's your favorite style of swimwear? Are you planning any sunny vacations this summer?

I love swimsuits. As a size 12, I have about 5-7 of them ranging from one to two pieces. Finding the BEST one that flatters your body is quite the challenge though.

I'm strictly a two-piece girl who prefers halter tops. I look horribly boyish in a one-piece. That suit from victorias secret is too cute and may be making its way to my closet soon!

Every woman should have a bathing suit or two or three that they love and that they think they look sexy as hell or great in. Every spring I get a few new ones....two piece or sexy one pieces. It all about finding what looks good on you....colors and styles.

loooove the pucci one. I always try them on, but the bottoms are teeny!

I usually wear bikinis much like the 'Shapefx Triangle Bikini'.

Since I have a full bottom, then I tend to wear something 'bikini cut', yet w/a wide band for a smooth look. And since, I have a 'not so full' top, then I like halters or anything else that plays up that area.

I love buying swimsuits, but I really never get to wear them. Two pieces are my favorite (even though I should probably go for the one piece). I usually get earth tone colors, which is why I guess I love the last one even though it isn't a teeny weeny bikini.

I prefer bikinis with a tie-waist! Those tend to be the most flattering on me.
