Swimming Suits orBirthday Suits There's less then a millimeter of fabric separating the two, but most women would choose swimming suits. Because as much as we hate shopping for swimsuits, we hate being naked worse.
After a few moments of hootin, hollaring, and jumping around in one spot, despair and dread start to sink in. You just realized that you'll need to go swimsuit shopping. Before you know it, you hear yourself saying, "Gee I wish I could go, but I have to spring clean my house that weekend". Of course I'm being silly, no one would actually turn down a free trip to Hawaii, but being busty and trying to find the right bathing suit can be daunting. There are things to look for that will prevent you from trying on a pile of suits and leaving with nothing except a squashed self-esteem.
The Seven Secrets to Big Bust Swimming Suits 
1. Find a swimming suit or bikini with a built-in underwire bra in your size. Out of all the advice this is the most important. (That's why it's first)2. Check the label for a suit with Lycra or Spandex. This material is great for holding in bulges and bumps. 3. A halter-top style is recommended for big busts. It will give you even more support. 4. There are mixed opinions about what kind of neckline will flatter your bust the best. Most recommend a "V" neck. I agree,as long as it doesn't plunge too low. Showing too much cleavage will make you look yucky. Some recommend a square cut neckline. This could also work as long as it isn't too high. Having too much fabric above the bust will make it look even bigger. 5. A stylish print can camouflage your bustline because it 'blends' your body instead of emphasizing specific parts. (Rumor has it that floral prints are suppose to be hot for summer of 2008.) 6. If you're more comfortable in a solid color that's just fine too. Find a beach wrap or sarong with a bright design. This will draw attention away from your chest to your lower half. 7. Some swimming suits designed specifically for big busts have an extra band in the back (kind of like a bra band, but cuter) This will help your shoulder straps stay up and provide support.
Some Examples If you're like me, you want to hear from other women with big busts who have found swimming suits they love. Here are a couple of examples of suits with great reviews. All these suit were found on www.biggerbras.com If you want to check out a suit, click on its picture, it will take you to the specific page on their site. I think you'll find the reviews at the bottom of each page very insightful. (you have a scroll a ways down.) Most of the reviewers include their bra size which also helps you to decide if a suit could work for you. All of these swimsuits have the built-in underwire bras and contain at least some Lycra and or Spandex. One thing I don't like about biggerbras.com is the fact that they rarely show you what the back of the suit looks like.
I did some surfing and found it cheaper at a place called alamodelingerie.com. They had it on sale for $76.00! Which is an awesome price. The catch is that they only had a couple sizes left and the sale ends April 30th 2008. Check it out the reviews by clicking on the picture and then head to alamodelingerie to see if they carry your size. I'm all about saving money will do my best to find the best price for you.
It ranges in price from $48.00 to 74.00, depending on the size and style. One nice thing about this tankini is that it comes in a wide variety of prints and colors. The downside is that you're only buying the top so you'll have to pay extra for the bottoms, but the way ladies talk about this one it totally sounds worth it.
