Swimsuit shopping could possibly be the most (o r only) d readed thing about the summe rtime. As fashionable and dive rse the options, how do you find the pe rfect suit that doesn't d raw attention to a reas of you r physique you would  rathe r not highlight?

Well, these 7 lean style tips should definitely point you in the right direction:

Fall In Love With The Halter Strap

Thick halter-style straps naturally draw the eye upwards and tapers your torso, creating the illusion of a slimmer physique. Plus, it highlights your shoulders, which are typically a slim part of most women’s bodies.

Plunging Neckline

Want to show a little skin without wearing a two-piece? Opt for a plunging neckline on an otherwise modest one-piece, which is extremely flattering (and every bit as sexy as a skimpy bikini.) A plunging halter neckline elongates the body and keeps attention on your upper half.

Be Bold And Beautiful In Bright Solids

There’s no need to stick to your basic black bathing suit. Bright solids can also be quite slimming. It has the look-at-me confidence of an Itsy Bitsy bikini with less exposure. Look for bolder neon shades when you’re already tan, and primary colors for lighter skin tones.

You CAN Too Look FABULOUS In A Bikini! 

Never think you can't rock a bikini! If you still have doubts, look for the most flattering option. Opt for a retro style that features a high waist so that you're only showing a chic sliver of skin at the slimmest part of your midsection.

The high-waisted bottom creates a slimming look, while the pin up polka dot bustier swim top with adjustable straps and padding inserts gives you complete control of your "boost" level.
