175/365

I only recently started wearing bikinis and by recently, I mean around three or so years ago. I'm not that much of a swimmer, but if someone offers, I'm not going to say no. The problem with this is that my swimsuits are older and when I first started wearing bikinis, I didn't know how to pick one that would work best for me. I have a very cheap bikini from TJMaxx and one that is way too expensive from Buckle. Obviously three years ago, I only worked on an extreme scale. Now, I'm looking into maybe buying another swimsuit. For some people, swimsuits are just something they need because they have a pool or they go on a lot of vacations. I would like to be one of these people in the future. As it so happens, swimsuits are an investment for me at the moment. I don't go swimming all the time and I haven't been to the beach since I was about eleven. I'm twenty. You can do the math.

So now I'm trying to take a look around some stores and find a bikini that I like and that fits me well. But before I go and really consider one, I watched this video on bikinis for different body shapes. I'm going to leave it below because, if you are like me, then you probably should watch it to make sure that you don't pick a swimsuit that looks great in the dressing room lighting but makes you look like a plank of wood when you go to the pool. 

catch you later,
