Skirted Bikinis

Skirted bikinis are a great alternative to all of the usual bikini bottoms you see strolling up and down the beach.  When you take a step away from the look of a classic full coverage bikini bottom and start looking for other choices, it opens up a lot of possibilities to take your swimwear style in a new direction. In terms of coverage, skirted bikinis can range anywhere from conservative to seductive depending on the cut which makes the style perfect for nearly any body type.

It is best to pick skirted bikinis that work best for your shape.  The rise and length of skirts makes a big difference in how they will look on your body.  A low-rise skirted bikini will nicely show off your waist and hips while elongating your top half which is great for women who have long legs with a shorter torso.  If you have long legs, you can also get away with a longer skirt, if you prefer more coverage.  If you have shorter legs, opt for shorter bikini skirts to help lengthen your legs.  Another flirty look that is amazing whether you have long or short legs is a cheeky skirt.  The skirt is cut intentionally short so that the back reveals the bottom portion of your cheeks.  This sexy style is the perfect way to embrace a skirted bikini without looking too modest.

One of the best things about skirted bikinis is the fact that you can wear them with absolutely any top to create a unique style.  Some bikini tops, such as a sweetheart top, will dress up the style while others will give the skirt a more casual appearance, such as a triangle top.  Either way, skirts are quickly becoming one of the most sought after styles going these days.
