BEACHWEAR GUIDE FOR SUMMER 2010

With the golden sunrays kissing the silvery beaches and the shimmering sea, it is time to strip down to your basics and hit the waters to beat the rising mercury levels. But prancing around the beach also requires adherence to a few sexy rules pertaining to what one should wear on the beach. This article will help you to find out the right look for this beach season in summer 2010.

Beachwear Trends in Summer 2010

Summer beachwear this year is all about variety. Variety is the key look this season. And fashionistas can go all out donning the latest sexy numbers to sizzle on the beach. Here are a few key looks.

Nautical Beachwear

• Nautical beachwear is ideal for a typical luxury holiday cruise look. These are mainly two piece bikinis with tie side panties or g strings and they feature nautical motifs on them.
• Perfect for lithe, slim frames, bustier women or potbellied women should avoid wearing these teeny weeny numbers.
• Also beware of unsightly tan marks spread out across your bust.

Solid Beachwear

• These are one piece or two piece swimsuits in one basic color and hark back to the elegant, classic beachwear look. Darker colors like black or navy or chocolate will create a slimming effect. Otherwise, there is a huge rainbow of hues to choose from.

Important Fashion Tip

A word of caution though. It is best to avoid swimsuits in stark white or in other pale shades as they become completely transparent when wet. Surely, you don’t want your nipples to peep out from underneath a transparent bikini!

To avoid such embarrassments, always purchase swimsuits with nipple covers sewn inside the cups.

The Vintage Beachwear

• For all those fashionistas aspiring for a chic Audrey Hepburn look, the fun and flirtatious 50s style vintage look is perhaps the best bet. High priestesses of fashion give big thumbs up to the glamorous vintage look that is recreated through one piece girlie swimsuits sporting frill details, sweetheart or halter neck necklines and low cut legs.
• Throw in those heart shaped super sized goggles and tie up your hair with a matching ribbon and you are ready to rock the coastline.
• Even slightly plump women can carry off this look with élan. The vintage glamour that this look exudes spells effortless timeless chic.

Floral Beachwear

• Flower power is here to stay and will never go out of fashion, ever. Bigger, bolder, colorful floral prints against a dark colored solid base on a one piece swimsuit can divert attention away from your love handles and lumps of lard hanging loosely from your belly.
• Slimmer women have a whole world of options to choose from, ranging from bikinis, tankinis and monokinis, cut aways, strapless and so on.

Tropical Prints

• But the hottest beachwear look this summer has to be the swimsuits and tie bikinis in strong and bold tropical motifs and colors. These usually come in push up bra tops paired with tie by side panties and are very colorful.
• Use of bronzers is a must with these sexy jungle numbers

One Shouldered Beachwear

• The cool, the classy and the sophisticated brigade of fashionistas swear by these one shouldered beauties that are reminiscent of the eighties inspired look. You can take your pick from embellishments, optic white, metallics, frill and ribbon details and so on.

Cut Away Beachwear

• The super sexy head turning cut away bikinis are definitely not meant for the fainthearted. Only women with oodles of sex appeal and a perfect 10 figure to match should dare to venture out on the beach wearing these stringy numbers.

Important Fashion Tips

Instead of blindly purchasing the hot beachwear trends this summer and then stashing them away at the back of your cupboard, take the help of lingerie or swimwear experts in departmental stores who can help you select the right look for you.

The perfect swimwear or beachwear for you should be something that is super comfortable, fits snugly on your curves, makes you look slim and hides your liabilities while showing off your assets. And most importantly, you should look like a million bucks in your sexy beachwear.
