While a lot of you wish to have a bikini-worthy bod (think: Kim Kardashian, Pussycat Dolls, or even just their lead girl Nicole Scherzinger), you could take comfort in knowing that the key to looking great in your swimwear is to pick one that hugs you in the right places.
So how do you know which one works? First, know your body shape and learn how to highlight your assets. If you're a bottom-heavy chick (pear-shaped), you would want to call attention to your torso instead of your wider hips through colorful tops. If you're apple-shaped, or your bust is wider than your hips and your belly is a little full, you could opt for tankinis.
Meanwhile, if you have an hourglass figure, with even bust and hips and a small waist, you can have fun with bikinis. Or if you have a rectangle body shape or a straight silhouette, create curves with bandeau-style and padded tops.
Check out the gallery for Cosmo's top picks and prepare to bask in the sun in style!
