Fabulous Fatkini: Daring to Wear a Plussize Two-Piece Swimsuit

Fabulous Fatkini: Daring to Wear a Plussize Two-Piece Swimsuit

In my last post, I shared some of the cutest plussize bikinis that have been cropping up everywhere this season. I just had to try one…and when I stopped into Forever 21 last week and found this adorable Fruit Frenzy two-piece, I positively swooned! I know this look isn’t for everyone, but if you are confident and daring, try one out this season!

The fruit and foliage pattern of this swimsuit is so kitschy and fun! The ruffles on the bust and the hips definitely add some flirty movement–that kept flying up in the wind! I like that the top comes with detachable straps and has a little peekaboo cleavage — or as Katy Perry likes to call it, “A Boob Window.” I had to size up because my bust is larger than my bottom, so they were a little saggy in the back…but a simple alteration can fix them in no time!

The key to a great plussize two-piece is the high-waisted bottoms. This is vital to smooth the line of your tummy, and show just a little bit of your midriff. I felt flirty, cool and daring in this swimsuit, and I can’t wait to wear it when the weather gets warm (it was about 40 degrees during this photoshoot!!!!).
What do you think?? Are you brave enough to wear a two piece and flaunt your curves at the beach??
