The struggle is real: finding a bathing suit!
It's always find it ironic how we dress all year long to cover ourselves often in streamlined looks to glide and hide any figure flaws and on the first hot day, we unpeel it all in the torturous, dreaded bathing suit. I'm often surprised how my body hibernates and conspires deceivingly under my tailored layers from fall to late Spring never giving me the slightest hint that the body that I last saw in a bathing suit, isn't the same one that has emerged when I go to try on a new one.
Here are my survival tips for trying on a bathing suit in the horrific fluorescent lighting of dressing rooms that seem to shine strobes on every wrinkle, line and bump...on the body! First, turn away from the mirrors while disrobing and until the suit is actually on. Secondly, be like a trapeze artist and NEVER LOOK DOWN, again, until the suit is on! Then, once pasted to your body, slowly visually scan and stand as tall as you can, of course holding in your stomach and not breathing. *Breathing in and out can add five pounds! If you do not let out a blood curdling scream once you see the suit on; consider it a contender!
Above all else, remember you are fabulous and while your butt and boobs may not be in same place as last bathing suit season, neither is your brain and you are better for it! And if that doesn't work, go home, pour a class of wine and eat a piece of cheesecake!
