Summer Fashion Trend: Go For Two-Piece Swimwear

Are you itching to feel the sand between your toes as you watch the waves a few feet away? After booking a flight and reserving a room in the resort of your choice, it's time to start the hunt for your top summer must-have: a swimsuit.

With all the styles and shapes available in the market, we know that choosing the right swimwear for you is not that easy. A basic guideline is to find one that is perfectly snug against your body (without squeezing out unwanted flabs) and which accentuates your silhouette.

As for the material, always be wary of the quality of each piece. Look for swimsuits that provide added support, shaping, and must at least have a lining. Feel the cloth, and go for sturdy pieces made of nylon, spandex, polyester, or even good quality cotton. While they may cost you a little more, at least you know you're getting your money's worth and you are secured of proper coverage where it is needed--without fearing they'll stain, be deformed, or worse, fall off.

Show off your fun fearless side in a bikini that's perfectly suited for you. For trendy, fasyon ideas, check out Cosmo's bikini gallery. Think you need more guts to strut around in a two-piece? Watch for our collection of one-piece suits, which we'll post soon.

24. Wow, all of them are super cute! Wish I could buy some of them. Actually, I wore my first bikini a couple of weeks ago. At first nakakaconscious kaya lang my best friend helped me get comfortable and eased my nerves. Tinawanan pa ako ng loka. Wala ng hiya hiya. Pakapalan na lang ng mukha. Btw, where could I find Sassa Activewear? Cute and affordable din kasi. :)

16. @Elyz_Iza: cosmo had (back) issue wherein it featured different types of swimwears for different body types. maybe u can contact summitmedia, or even request cosmo to publish that section again especially this time of the year -- summer! as to "body issues," prob na lng ng mga tumitingin kung di nila ma-appreciate ang nakikita nila. haha we r fearless gurls! go gurls!
