What to Look for in a White Bathing Suit
- Style: Before buying your swimsuit, consider what you’ll be doing while wearing it and your personal style. If you are shopping for a suit to wear on an adventurous honeymoon, you may want to go with more functional styles. On the other hand, if you plan to spend more time lying by the water than in it, you can opt for less sporty designs that offer more fashion-forward details.
- Coverage: Everyone has different preferences when it comes to coverage. If you love to show off your bod and want to limit as many tan lines as possible, consider a classic cheeky suit or one with cutouts or plunging necklines. If you feel uncomfortable with too much skin showing, opt for swimwear with full-coverage bottoms or a one-piece.
