How To Look Good at the Beach

It is better to spend a day at the beach, relaxing in the sun, and dipping into the warm water.You look good while you do it.Pick a swimsuit that accentuates your body's beauty and spend some time prepping your skin for the sun before heading out to the beach.

Step 1: If you are apple shaped, choose a suit with wide straps.

If you want to be comfortable and fashionable at the beach, look for suits that provide enough support for your bust.Instead of string ties or no straps, opt for a suit with thick straps.For added definition, try to find a suit with details at the waist line.If you are apple shaped, look for high-cut legs to accentuate your legs and lengthen your body.

Step 2: If you have an hourglass shaped body, highlight your waist and curves.

If you need underwire or bust support, choose a suit that accentuates your waist to draw attention to your curvy, proportional figure.The suits with belts look good on the body.

Step 3: If you are small, buy a striped suit.

Choose a sporty one-piece suit.The illusion of long torso is created by vertical stripes.To make your legs look longer, look for suits that have high-cut legs.Beingpetite means that you are under 5 feet and have a smaller framed body.

Step 4: If you are pear shaped, wear a blocked suit.

A brightly colored or patterned top is a good choice for a suit.This will create a more balanced look between your waist and top by drawing the eye up.You could get a two piece suit and mix and match the tops and bottoms to make different beach outfits.Pick different patterned tops if you focus on black or navy blue bottoms.

Step 5: If you are rectangular in shape, get a suit that creates curves.

Choose suits with asymmetrical straps, ruffled tops, ruched waistlines, and horizontal stripes.These details will make your body look softer and draw the eye in.Your hips and waist are the same size, so your body is not very curvy because you are rectangular in shape.Boy shorts look good on people with a rectangular shape.

Step 6: If you are short, get short to mid-length shorts.

Don't choose shorts that are baggy or wide in the legs or ones that extend past your mid-thigh area.Long shorts can make you look shorter than you are.Try tying a bigger knot with the shorts or even putting them inside your shorts to keep them out of the way.

Step 7: If you have a larger belly, choose shorts with a drawstring.

If you want to pull attention away from your belly, pick shorts that come below your mid-thigh or knees.If you want to adjust the waistband to fit more comfortably, invest in shorts with a drawstring instead of ones with an elastic waist.Don't wear shorts labeled "tailored" or "tapered."

Step 8: If you have thick quads, look for shorts that have wide legs.

Stay away from shorts that are tailored or have a relaxed elastic band.If you have wider legs, board shorts are a good option as they are roomier all the way through the legs.Feel free to wear short to mid to long shorts, which are the most comfortable for you.

Step 9: If you're tall and lean, buy short swim trunks.

When you are at the beach, wear shorter trunks for your legs and torso.If you want to get a contrast from your body, try to choose a suit with a pattern so you can adjust the waistband easily.You should look for a 6 in inseam for your shorts.

Step 12: If you want a spray tan, apply self-tanner.

You can get a spray-tan if you have pale skin or an even skin tone.Make sure to follow the instructions on the bottle when applying self-tanner.Schedule your spray-tan appointment before your first beach trip.Exfoliating before applying self-tanner helps remove dead skin.Tan-Luxe Wonder Oil, Banana Boat summer color self-tanning lotion, and the TanTowel to-go kit are all well-reviewed.
