It always sucks. But, with these tips from Cyla Weiner, your experience should at least not be too horrible…. “One thing that is consistent is that women hate shopping for swimsuits. People always scrutinize their own bodies,” Weiner says.

Help exists as swimsuit designers create swimwear with different body types in mind and Weiner says the perfect suit does exist. When shopping for a “must have” summer wardrobe essential, Weiner provides the following helpful hints:

1. FULL BUST—Don’t despair ladies there are many suits, both one piece and two piece styles, that come in D-F cups. These suits provide support and coverage and are very much in fashion. Vendors have come to realize that there are many full busted gals out there who want great looking suits that provide support and are attractive. You can find them with and without wires and with tummy control if you desire.

2. TUMMY HIDER—If you want to camouflage your tummy look for a suit that flatters and firms. Shirring, color blocking, asymmetrical patterns and surplice suits are good to take control of the mid-section. This season’s monokini is another choice that can provide a slimming illusion with a sexy appearance.

3. LARGE THIGHS—Find a suit that takes the eye away from that area. Skirted tankinis are a great option, as are swimdress suits or boy short suits (jogger style).

4. HIP PROBLEMS—Here you need to find a suit that flatters the leg. You should look for a suit that is cut up higher on the leg because it makes your hips look smaller. Dark bottoms are good. Also try to find a suit that has interest across the top to take your eye away from the hip area.

5. LONG TORSO—Suits are available in long lengths. Tankinis and two piece suits are great for long torsos too. Emphasis at the waist deemphasizes the length of the torso.

6. SMALL BUST—Many suits are available that will provide cleavage and fullness. Look for suits that have push up cups or pads inside. Shirring across the bust is also good and embellishments on the upper area also add some fullness. Find one with ruffles or a big and busy design to add emphasis to that area.

Arieanna has handed the over reins for The Lingerie Gals to me, and I have to say, I’m very excited!

I have a love of fine lingerie products, neat gadgets that slim, shape, and make us look amazing, as well as the ones that make a girl feel oh so sexy that you simply can’t wait to get home and show off your newest … look. 

I like the idea that a new look, be it a corset, a costume or a pair of thigh highs can take a woman from a shy girl at work to an animal in the bedroom. I like the feeling that a girl can get from just knowing that she’s got on a beautiful matching bra and panties set.

I plan to give the site some gas, and well, set the sucker on fire. I’ve started to suss out some fun stuff to write about here, and I can’t wait to start telling you all about it!

Let me know if there’s anything that you guys are interested in seeing, and if there’s PR people who rep lingerie, swim wear, any neat gadgets, hosiery, undergarments… all that kinda stuff, please let me know! Pitch me, please.

I hope you’ll enjoy me here… I’ll certainly do my best to please.
