What swimwears to choose for this summer?
Updated: 2006-05-17 14:46 Another alternative to the archaic skirted bikini is to use extra
fabric that sits over the bikini bottom - think fitted boy shorts, but in skirt
form - won't give as much coverage as a sarong or skirt, but it will make for a
slimmer transition where the hip meets the thigh.
From bust to belly to booty, these suits have got you covered - but it's
never too late to work what Mother Nature gave you. With summer being a prime
time to hit the pool for laps and do some beachfront backstrokes, there are
plenty of sporty swimsuit options that are sure to up the cute factor while
you're working up a sweat. And according to Peterson, swimming is one of the
best ways to get that beach-worthy body.
"Swimming offers a lot of benefits that land lovers are hard pressed to get,"
said Peterson via his cell phone from Los Angeles last week. "It's easier to
work multiple muscle groups against the resistance in the water, yet it's not at
a level where you can't complete it. Plus it's less jarring on the joints."
For a suit that is as fashionable as it is functional, The Swim Feature Suit
by Stella McCartney for Adidas is as sexy as can be, but is designed for
competition. The one-piece is cut to allow for optimal movement in the water,
and the sleek design of visible seams and a racer back top back make the body
look slim and smooth.
With choices like these, beautifying the beach with your body is as simple as
suiting up.
