Have you spent hours online trying to find a new bathing suit? Maybe your body has transformed since you last bought one, or maybe you just want to add another one to your collection. Either way, Cupid has you covered!

Check out our fashion advice on choosing the best bathing suit for your body type!

Flat Chest and Flat Bottom: Ruffles and bright colors are your friends! Ruffles can make your chest appear naturally fuller without having to get a bathing suit with extra padding. Bright colors also define the ruffles more than black or white. Find a cheeky cut bikini or swimsuit bottom to show off where your butt lifts, instead of hiding it with a full coverage bathing suit.

Busty Chest and Wide Bottom: Embrace swimsuits and bikinis with mini skirts and underwire lining attached. Mini Skirts are cute and flirty, but will also accentuate your curves. To avoid bathing suit top mishaps, get a bathing suit with thick straps and underwire lining to keep you safe from slip ups!
