Bikini Guru on… Getting Your Girl the Sexiest Bikini Possible

Resident Bikini Guru Amy Pitre of SugarBaby Swimwear gives us her advice on sexy bikinis from the female perspective.

1. The sexiest bikinis find a way to bare a lot but there are some that bare (curse us for admitting this) too much. Where is the line?

Amy of SugarBabySwimwear.com: The line is drawn inside the woman’s head - it’s what she sees and feels when she checks out herself in her bikini in the mirror……And guys you know there’s no telling WHY, WHAT , WHERE or HOW that line is drawn……

My personal pet peeves are unkept bikini lines, bikini bottoms that are too loose, therefore sagging like a dirty diaper, or strings not properly tied, or not tied tight enough……

Tan lines, not so bad…..Tan lines can be sexy sometimes……

2. Is there any correlation between the bikinis guys like to look at and the bikinis that are comfortable for a woman to wear?

Amy of SugarBaby Swimwear: I see guys checking out bikinis displayed on mannequins in the mall all the time, so that answer would be - Nope, don’t think so……

3. How does a guy buy his wife or girlfriend a bikini as a surprise that will motivate her to get or stay in shape?

Amy of SugarBaby Swimwear: Ok, as surprise or motivation, I would start in the beginning of the first quarter of the year. Get something new, bright, in her favorite colors. (Refer to the guide in question #4). This will give her enough time to get “BikiniLicious” for the summer.
Oh, and it always works to throw a deadline with it. For example, tell her you got this great bikini for her to debut her hot bikini body at some exotic destination you’re taking her to. There’s no better motivation than that! Believe me…..And don’t just take her down to Barton Springs or the neighborhood pool for all her hard work……Although Devil’s Cove by Memorial Day Weekend is always a big motivation for lots I know……..

4. How do we find her size if she doesn’t already own a bikini?

Amy of SugarBaby Swimwear: This one is tricky…..The Golden Rule when buying a woman ANYTHING she will be wearing on her body is - always err toward the smaller size.

Here’s a guide from a woman’s perspective:
a) If you’re thinking she’s a small, Buy a small….
b) If you’re thinking she’s a medium, Buy a small….
c)If you’re thinking she’s a large, Buy a Small/Medium, or a Medium….Buying a small may upset her a little and make her think you really would rather a smaller woman……Then you’re in trouble. Again.

You can always look at her current bikini size ( I would check more than one suit to gauge a better estimate, or one she wears most)….Just don’t let her catch you rifling through her bikinis, this could raise all kinds of questioning that will be almost impossible to explain your way out of……

5. What bikini have you owned the longest and why?

Amy of SugarBaby Swimwear: I have a blue multi-colored gingham that I bought in 1994…….I’ve saved it all these years because it was the first suit I splurged on and spent a couple weeks on the beach in Fort Lauderdale in it…Good times…..And it still looks great!

Got more questions? I’ve got the answers!
