Littlewoods Bingo's Best: Bikinis

Whether you followed the Bingo's Best Online Bikini Buster (May Edition) or not, there's no need to worry because the Littlewoods Bingo girls have hit the high street and found the perfect swimsuits no matter your shape.

Bingo Bikini Tips for Smaller Busts.

A couple of the girls in the Littlewoods Bingo office fit into this category of body shapes and they say they dread bikini season as they feel rather embarrassed about their small bust.

The best type of swimsuit for this shape is a halter-neck bikini top with a thick seam just under the bust line. A halter-neck helps lift therefore giving the illusion of a bigger, more pert bust and the thick seam simply enlarges the area. Tie front bikinis are also good bingo bikini tip as they can be tightened to create a subtle cleavage. Just be careful not to tie too tightly!

Littlewoods Bingo says…

Avoid boob tube bikinis – they will flatten what you have.

Bingo Bikini Tips for Larger Busts

Very rarely does the same style suit both women with larger and smaller bust but when it comes to bikinis halter-necks rule for all bust sizes! If you have a full bust, plump for a halter-neck bikini with thick straps. The thicker the straps, the more support the top will give you – vital for the bustier figure.

Alternatively you can take a more classic approach and go for your standard underwire top which will maximise your shape.

Like your smaller chested bingo buddies stay clear of boob tube bikini tops. Although they can help minimize the bust, they will give you very little support and support is certainly needed for this figure.

Bingo Bikini Tip for Apple Shapes

This figure is typically the one that dreads shedding the layers and parading in swimwear and tends to hide their embarrassment by wearing a one piece with a permanent sarong around their waist. However, in some respect a two piece would be better suited to this shape. Seriously.

Go for a top in a solid, preferably dark, colour with jazzier, patterned bottoms. This will give you a much more balanced appearance.

If the idea of donning a bikini makes you a little sick to the stomach, why not opt for a tankini. That way your belly is still covered. Just make sure you stick to the colour guide.

Bingo Bikini Tips for Pear Shapes

If your waist is wider than your shoulders then you are what we call a pear shape – slender on top with a couple of saddlebags attached to your thighs. The trick here is to choose a bottom with a high leg cut as this will create the idea of extra length thus disguising the width.

You should also chose a swimsuit that has a lighter colour on top and a darker colour on the bottom. Darker colours, after all, are more slimming and much more flattering.

Littlewoods Bingo Says…

If you're really self conscious about your pear shape, then treat yourself to a matching sarong. The right one can add a definite touch of glamour.

Bingo Bikini Tips for Short Legs

Like your pear-shaped friends, those with short legs need to give the illusion of length and so a bottom with a high leg cut should be top of your summer shopping list; they really do elongate your legs.

You can also adopt the whole vertical stripes theology but instead of searching high and low for a vertical striped swimsuit, dark bottoms and a pattern top, preferably a tankini top, work just as well. A 'busy' top half will draw any onlookers attention upward, away from your legs and making you appear longer.

Littlewoods Bingo Says…

Stay clear of the boy-type shorts that are becoming so popular at the moment. While they are great for bigger bottoms (because the cover that little bit more than a traditional swimsuit) it's that coverage that you're trying to avoid.
