I don't have any pictures, but I'm hoping someone out there will have close to the same body type as me. I love summer and am very active. What should I wear while hitting the waves? Colors? Brands? Styles? I am 5 foot 6 inches tall, 138 lbs., fair skin, size 34C top, muscular build, strawberry-blonde hair, flat abs and wide hips. I'll take all the suggestions you're willing to give; thanks!

I have a similar build (except for my cup size, I'm a little underprivileged there.) Since you and I both have wide hips a lot of people will recommend boy shorts or skirted bottoms, but adding more fabric only makes your butt look bigger. I wear bikini bottoms, but try not to wear a string bikini. Try this website, on this page you can see an example of a regular bikini bottom, plus something I like to wear is the bikini bottom with what looks like a belt, they're very cute. http://www2.victoriassecret.com/collection/index.cfm?&rfnbr=148&cgname=OSSWMBEAZZZ&cgnbr=OSSWMBEAZZZ&page=3

And you're not too large up top to the point where you cant where certain swimsuits, so for tops anythings fair game except for bandeau tops I'd say. You have more of a chance of fallin' out of em'.

For your skin color and hair I'd say you look better in blues, pinks, yellows. try Victoria's Secret, they have all the best swimsuits!

if you're planning on being really active while in the suit, I'd get something like the ones below. (there are a few others if you click around the website!) They'll offer the support you need for activity, and you won't have to worry about falling out or coming untied or anything like that. Plus with flat abs, you definately want something to show those off!

If you're going to be active get something that won't come off. Avoid ties and halters or anything your boobs will flop out of. Try a Nike or TYR workout suit. If you're surfing make sure your suit fits well enough that when you get pummeled it stays on!!!

I'm 5'6", 122#, broad shoulders and hips, an avid surfer and swimmer and I also swim openwater distance so I can vouch for the TYR and Nike suits as well as Zoot and Sugoi. If you want a nice cute beach bikini go to your local surf shop and find one that looks cute. I love Rusty bikinis but won't wear them surfing because they tend to shift a lot. It's def about what fits YOU the best.

Good luck girl!!!

u need 2 wear somethin that is comfortable and fits great. make sure it is tight 2 make u look good but not 2 tight or it will bother u. don't do any colors like gold silver peach yellow red orange or white. those colors will not go good with your hair color. my advice in the colors is 2 get something like hot pink, green {not dark green} blue brown purple . those kinda colors. don't get ne thing that is really dark because it makes the swimsuit look old.it really doesn't matter what brand just don't go 2 walmart 2 get it! go to a place like hollister or american eagle. those kind of places.you have a good height and weight . if your hair is past your shoulders than put it up in a bun 2 or 3 inches back from the top of your head. you will probably look great in your new swimsuit! good look!

decide for the two piece!! no longer actual everyone sounds like a style. yet those measurements do no longer sound undesirable in any respect!! Flaunt your curves! human beings could desire to delight in you for being advantageous sufficient which comprise your physique which you went with the two piece. self belief is attractive! Plus! Going to the sea coast with a 2 piece definately helps with that tan. additionally, in case you ensue in a one piece. actual everyone seems to be going to ask your self why. they gained't ask you. yet they could draw their own conclusions.

I'd say a strappy top that ties around the back and the bottoms to a tankini. (mine has the undershorts connected to a cute little mini skirt.) Oh and don't forget the sunglasses
