Stay clear of boring one-pieces and unflattering tankinis
So where to start?
First off, we have the classic solid-color one-piece.
Next, we have the tankini, or a two-piece swimsuit with a top that covers the midriff.

According to Manley, a loose tankini with ruffles and a loud print is a total don’t.
What might be even worse?
Swimsuits with graphic text or quirky screen prints on them.

Stick to classics-with-a-twist instead.
Even if you wearallthe sunscreen, tan lines can happen.
That’s why you should avoid a strappy cutout bathing suit at all costs (via Nexter).

In fact, perWho What Wear, cutout swimsuits are, well, out.
One go-to swim trend that bloggerNada Manleyrecommends ditching is the retro, pin-up bathing suit.
She thinks this style can look too costume-y and is unflattering to boot.

Of course, we still love “Mad Men,” but chic vintage-inspiredpieces are your best bet.
