Let’s face it, when it comes to most things with us females we usually want what we can’t have. Take hairstyles for instance, girls with curls want poker straight locks and those with sleek, shiny barnets want volume and lift. The same is true with our figures, whether we’re apples, pears, athletic, big-busted or small-bummed we’re never happy with what god gave us. Never is this truer than on the beach or beside the pool when we can freely ogle at others from behind the cover of our darkly tinted shades.

It’s time to stop thinking the grass is greener on the other side and embrace our own figures. To give you a helping hand here’s a quick rundown of how to create the perfect figure for your shape when buying your new season swimwear.
Creating the illusion of curves
You’re straight up and down with an athletic build, you think you resemble an ironing board but others envy you for your flat stomach and toned tush. You need a bikini (and it should most definitely be a bikini) to help you create curves and add a hint of femininity. Frills and skirted bottoms help create the illusion of curves and at the same time add that feminine feel. If you’re not quite ready to take your usually boyish look to such extremes however, a simple string bikini can also help whilst elongating your legs, what could be better?
Tummy trauma
If the thought of bearing your stomach makes you feel nauseous, the one piece or tankini are the swimwear options for you! Swimsuit style has benefit from a surge in popularity in the last few years with bold colours and patterns so now you can hit the beach looking like a babe rather than a bore. Tankini’s are a great way to hide your midriff whilst getting the advantages of mixing and matching different style tops and bottoms.
Bootiful
If you have curves in spades and a big booty to match then structured styles are for you. Despite the bigger bottom becoming a desired attribute in the body stakes, those who don’t possess the ‘if you’ve got it flaunt it’ attitude often fail to agree with the bigger is better attitude. Embrace your inner Beyoncé and flash the flesh with a hip skimming style. Make sure not to fall into the trap of covering up to much; the more material the bigger you tend to look.
