One of the key ways to stay comfortable yet stylish during each season is to know how to layer your clothes.

To camouflage your midsection in swimwear, choose a halter top with an empire waist. A tankini with thick straps will offer more bust support.

Overall pattern on a darker, slimming background plus a longer body with easy drape offers great coverage. V-neckline draws the eye upwards.

Draw focus upward with anything that adds detailing at the neckline; it helps to balance your body and accents your face.

Choose detailed swimwear with prints, embellishments, or details above the waist.

Flirty keyhole neckline plus empire waist and hanky hem sport a multi-color look that pairs well with a whole summer’s worth of capris.

Here are a few tips for finding a swimsuit that will have you lounging by the pool or beach with confidence.

To pair colors well, put the color wheel to work for you. Here’s how.

If you are hoping to hide your hips or add height, don’t wear tops that are too long and cover your tush; they tend to shorten your legs.

The halter top provides support and coverage for a larger bust, and the tankini top gives added lift for your breasts.
