Gearing up for a beach or pool day? These Awesome Bikinis for Pear Shaped Bodies are perfect for vacation!  I know.  I know.  Not only do I spend all this time asking you to Just Wear the Suit and to feel comfortable in a swimsuit, but now I’m telling you to wear a bikini? Who am I?

Truth be told, up until two years ago, I would barely wear a one piece.  And now? This summer I was on the hunt for some great Bikinis for Pear Shaped Bodies that also wouldn’t break the bank.  Difficult to find? Not really.  In fact, I found some AWESOME bikini options that are super flattering.  This list includes more modest bathing suits along with some more traditional bikinis for pear shaped bodies.  That way, you can find an option you feel comfortable with!

A few tips for bikinis on us pear shaped body people:

• it’s all about balance, you want to draw the eyes upward.  You can do that with lighter colors on top, a fun neckline or print or embellishments like ruffles or sleeves
• higher waisted bottoms tend to look great on a pear shaped body and are totally in style

Awesome Bikinis for Pear Shaped Bodies

There is so much more to a bikini than being just a two piece.  These are my favorite types of bikinis, and the top choice bikinis for pear shaped bodies that I’d recommend.

Bandeau Tops:  A simple bandeau bikini will draw the eyes upward (with your bare shoulders) and I love that they normally have the option of being worn with or without straps.  My personal favorite? A simple bandeau top without straps and a high waisted bottom.  This lime green version is a STEAL and I love that the top has cups built in for support (I’m wearing a medium top and a large bottom).

Fun Neckline: Looking for a great two piece? Get a fun neckline? I love the twisted neckline on this lemon suit, it totally draws the eyes toward my top half and looks adorable.  A fun neckline can be shape or color, you can always wear a print or lighter color on top to draw the eyes upward too!

Off the Shoulder: You guys know I love a great off the shoulder suit, they are SUPER flattering on a pear shaped body and off the shoulder bikinis are the best example.  I love an off the shoulder suit with a great ruffle, especially with a high waisted bottom (pro tip: the suit in these pictures is a off the shoulder bikini top with a high waisted bottom……you can show a small strip of stomach or none if you prefer).  I’m wearing a medium top and large bottom.
