Seventeen: SHOP FOR YOUR BODY

Well, It's officially summer!
Isn't that crazy? School's out and I am ready to have lots of fun under the sun.
(Sorry, I just really had to write that. It rhymed...)

I bet all you lovely ladies cannot wait to get your tan on. ;]
I know I can't.

But of course, we all want to look SUPER CUTE at the beach, right?
And we can't deny that all of us have insecurities about our bodies.

So here are tips on which type of "figure-flattering" swimsuit will make you feel comfortable and beautiful in your own amazing skin.

I am a combination of curvy thighs and a semi-flat butt.
I hope this will help you girlies with your summer shopping!


Which one are you? Have you started swimsuit shopping yet?

  4. this is a great guide.. sometimes i have a problem with tops i need a large b/c of my chest but they don't always fit b/c they have a clasp, you can' tie them... wish swimwear designers would tackle that problem!!
