One of the questions you guys ask me about regularly, is where to find good swimwear when you have big boobs. Therefore I decided to take advantage of my recent trip to Croatia, and focus this weeks 5 ways to wear on beachwear from La Redoute. I’ve teamed up with them in the past for both metallics and winter coats, and you guys loved them. I feel that they are so underrated for beachwear. They have such an incredible and diverse range of swimwear for different shapes and sizes, but of course what makes it so incredible for me is how nice their range is for us big-boobed ladies!
In terms of what kinds of swimsuits and bikinis to wear if you have bigger boobs, I honestly don’t think there are many rules. It’s really personal, as we all have different preferences and areas of insecurity, so don’t feel too limited. Personally, I avoid underwired bikinis because I find them quite unsexy, but obviously they would give you the most support. Even when I’m doing water-sports I still don’t think you are bouncing up and down so much that you need support though.
My favourite swimwear to wear is triangle bikinis, which a lot of people presume you can’t wear with big boobs. I honestly believe they are the most flattering because you can tie them tight at the top so they lift your boobs and keep them in.
I also love wearing swimsuits, and I like wearing them as a top with a pair of shorts or trousers, as for me it is important to show off my waist and they are so figure hugging and flattering. I’m obsessed with the range of shapes that La Redoute offers, as you will see in this post. I shot all the looks in Split with my super awesome photographer Kaye Ford, and I just love all the images as much as the outfits! I’m going to write about my time in Split soon, as it’s such an incredible and picturesque place.
So here we go, my 5 different beachwear outfits, I hope you find some nice wardrobe inspiration if you’re off on holiday over the summer.

How amazing is their swimwear? Which outfit do you like the most? I just love the swimsuit and trousers because of the range of colours and the fact it’s so effortless and comfortable. That said, the red swimsuit is pretty special, and the lemons! I mean, I actually can’t pick a favourite.
