Isn’t it just great to get away on a sunny break, to a warm climate where the sun puts a smile on everyone’s face! No sign of the summer here yet in Ireland, but i am holding off with the bad weather predictions until i see what July brings. Fingers crossed we will get a couple of GREAT summer months before the season flies by.
For those of you that are jetting off to warmer shores, to lie on beaches or by swimming pools, make sure you get this one important thing right…Wear A Proper Fitting Swimsuit or Bikini.
For us bigger girls this is a must, as a sagging wet bikini top is not a good look on us, and it can sometimes make it hard to just simply stand up out of water or the sunbed without some major adjustments going on. Get good swimwear and i promise you will never look back.
What are the advantages of a Good Swimsuit or Bikini
Comfort: High-quality swimwear is designed to fit well and be comfortable, which is crucial when spending long periods by the pool or at the beach. Poorly fitting swimwear can lead to chafing, irritation, and general discomfort, which can detract from your enjoyment.
Support and Coverage: Good swimwear provides the necessary support and coverage. This is especially important for active water sports or swimming, ensuring everything stays in place and you feel secure.
Durability: Higher quality swimwear is typically made from better materials that can withstand exposure to sun, saltwater, and chlorine. This means it will last longer and maintain its shape and color over time, providing better value for money.
Protection: Some swimwear offers additional features like UV protection, which can help protect your skin from harmful sun exposure. This is particularly beneficial during long days outdoors.
Style and Confidence: Wearing stylish and well-fitting swimwear can boost your confidence, making you feel good about how you look. This can enhance your overall holiday experience, allowing you to relax and enjoy yourself more fully.
Quick Drying: Quality swimwear often has quick-drying properties, making it more convenient when transitioning between swimming and other holiday activities. Remember if you want to keep the colours at their best try hanging them in the shade to dry rather than in direct sunlight.
Investing in good swimwear can significantly enhance your holiday experience by ensuring comfort, durability, and confidence in your appearance.
