Yellow Bikini Top

With so many designs and styles to choose from, simply telling the sales attendant that you are looking for a yellow bikini top can be very frustrating. Assuming that yellow is indeed your color, you can still waste time, energy, and money on a swimsuit that you might end up not wearing. Before you rush off to shop, the most important thing that you should consider is your body type. Are you shaped more like an apple or a pear? Or are you more like a banana?

Apple-shaped figures

Apple-shaped women have shoulders that are broader than their hips. Usually, this body type also possesses an ample bosom and a less prominent backside. If this sounds like you, then you should go for a tankini. With its tank top style, it is perfect for women who want the freedom associated with a two-piece swimsuit, but who may not have washboard abs to show for it.

Pear-shaped bodies

Pear-shaped women are the exact opposite of the “apples.” They typically have narrow shoulders, modest bosoms, flared hips, and voluptuous backsides. With this frame, “pears” would look great in a string top or halters, as they create an impression of fuller beasts. If you have a similar frame, choose tops that are heavily embellished, with bottoms that are plainer. This will drive eyes upward and away from your heavier bottom frame. A bandeau, which looks like a narrower version of the tube, would also work well with this body type. Just make sure you get the ones with halter strings, to secure the bandeau in place.

Banana-shaped women

Banana-shaped women are the skinny types. Bordering on boyish with narrower shoulders and hips as well as smaller chests and backsides, they would look great in bandeaus and string bikinis. If you belong in this category, stay away from tankinis, as they can elongate the torso and make you look thinner.

What to wear with your top

Pear-shaped women should avoid wearing boy leg bottoms, because they make hips seem wider and the legs shorter. Boy legs are okay for women with apple frames and are great for skinny ones. High-cut leg designs work wonders for most body types. If you want to go for a stroll on the beach, you may wear a sarong with your bikini. A sarong alone can be worn in several ways, such as a wrap-around skirt or dress. A flimsy white tunic pulled over your yellow bikini is sexy in an understated way.
