    Girls, swimwear problem...help
    So I'm going to buy a new swimsuit. I'm a medium size but the big problem is that I have a fat belly. I've been looked for it online. How do you girls think about these? Which one's better? Or do you have any other suggestions?

    I like the first one however I think there are better websites and high street shops where you can buy better swimsuits from, you could also maybe get a bikini which is the old style one which is back in fashion now which might be alright,

    I would personally go for a swimsuit though but thats because I love swimsuits more than I do bikini's, I think a swimsuit though would be more suitable and will give you the control your looking for, try M&S and other places like that as they do some good swimsuits

    I think the ruffles will probably add weight and bulk, and stripes are generally quite unflattering, so to be honest i would avoid both!
    What clothes size are you?

    A swimsuit like this may be flattering, if you read the reviews other women say it is.

    Alternatively, a bikini with high waisted bottoms may work?

    If you're worried about your stomach, get one of those tummy control costumes that will make it appear flatter?

    the ruffles will make you look bigger than you are. i don't particularly like the second one and if it rests over your stomach it'll have the same effect as the ruffles.

    if you go into stores like matalan, M&S, new look, tesco etc. you can see one pieces that say "tummy control" which slim you down.

    I like the second one, but it doesn't look very practical for swimming :dontknow:

    I like the M+S one above

    They're both really horrible, just get a nice one piece like everyone else has suggested

    You put link to the same swimsuit twice instead of one to the bikini you found, which is a nice swimsuit and would be good
