While plus size swimwear is no doubt first and foremost in your mind, don’t forget to pick up the little odds and ends that you’ll be reaching for while you’re poolside (or beachside, if you’re really lucky!). These essentials can keep you safe, comfortable and happy while you’re enjoying the sun and water.

First, don’t forget to pack sunscreen. Try to find something with an SPF of 30+ or more, and don’t forget to look for sweat- and waterproof varieties. Sunscreen is available in foam, cream, and spray form, so there’s no excuse not to protect your skin from nasty and dangerous sunburns!

You’ll also need a beach towel or two! Find colorful, bold patterns that really show off your flirtatious side.

A plus size cover-up is a must if you plan on wearing your suit before or after you hit the pool or the waves. Dress “up” in style with a flashy cover-up paired with a cute pair of flip-flops or wedges!

Sunglasses and a hat go along nicely with that coating of sunscreen…

Don’t forget a fully charge cell phone, so you can keep in touch with loved ones! A digital music player or a netbook or laptop is always a nice form of entertainment to bring along as well.

I think all women dread swimsuit shopping. Whether you weigh 125 lbs. or are over 200 lbs., your body is going to have flaws, and you’re going to do your best to cover them up. But you also want to focus on fashion, which is why it’s great to check out a website that is devoted exclusively to plus women swimwear. Choosing to shop in this manner means finding a unique collection of swimsuits and bathing suits that are designed with your body type and needs in mind!

Without further ado, here are some tips to keep in mind when shopping for plus women swimwear:

• Shop by style first, then color. Know your body’s weaknesses and advantages, and work them to your advantage! If you can get away with a two-piece, then be bold! Otherwise, look for sexily cut one-piece suits.
• Check out solid colors, as patterns don’t always minimize as well as certain solid colors can.
• The fit of a swimsuit is just as important as the style of material!
• Don’t forget to find coordinating womens plus size cover-ups!
