It’s already March 21st, ladies. For some of us, that means the Spring Equinox. For others, that means summer is just but a few short weeks away. Don’t worry about that perfect beach body because it doesn’t exist. Whatever body the universe gave you is your best body. Whatever body you feel most comfortable in is your perfect body. And whatever body you got, you’ll be sure to look hot in any of these little numbers. You will feel ready for any beach and even more ready for that much-needed getaway (you cannot work all the time, you need a break). Don’t forget, the most important accessory on the beach, besides the ubiquitous sunscreen and swimsuit, is self-confidence. So go ahead and rock it!High-Waisted

The 80s have done it again, but so have the 90s. Both decades were all about the high waist –the jeans and the belts, but also the swimsuits. This brought attention? to the hip area and elongated legs. So if you’ve got legs you want to accentuate, this is your swimsuit. Go for some florescent colors to beckon that vintage flair, then pair with some Ray-Bans and a clear plastic visor.

If you are trying to get people to break their necks, go for a nude swimsuit. You will get all the attention. You will get the double look more than once or twice. Of course, nude is not just one color, it’s based on the color of your skin tone –so whatever nude is your color is the best tone to wear. Be proud of your nude and take the look all the way to the heavens by pairing with nude lipstick and nails.

Ruffles

Ruffles are having a huge comeback this summer and it’s all thanks to the 80s. Ruffles were everywhere back in the day and they’re everywhere today. Adding ruffles to any swimsuit, whether around the bust line or the hips, whispers adorable, whimsical, and feminine. Wear some pastel ruffles and really bring that adorable element all the way up, throw in some pigtails and you’re smashing the look to death.

Sheer

For those feeling bold and edgy, the sheer suit is the best suit. Black with sheer cut-outs screams sexy and dangerous, where sheer and white combos take a sexier turn and blur the line between swimwear and lingerie. The look can be sleek or flirty, but either way, you’ll be turning heads all the way around in your direction. Your summer swimsuit style will not go unnoticed if you chose a sheer number. These swimsuits demand full-body sunscreen protection. You’ve been warned.

One Piece

The first swimsuit was a one piece. Of course, it had almost 100% coverage, but that transformed with time and with the women’s liberation into the one piece we know and love today. The one piece is for the girl who wants to be quiet and who doesn’t want to make a scene; however, there are now one-pieces that do demand the attention of onlookers. These have serious cutouts and plunging necklines and feel even more sexy than a bikini. The one piece is for the girl who has a knack for summer swimsuit fashion.
