How to Find the Right Swimsuit for Your Body Shape

Booking for promo tickets, searching for backpacker hotel rooms, planning for itineraries - all these are keeping me busy these days since school year is about to end!  Yipey!!!  (singsong) Mae's gonna go out there, Mae's gonna go out there..... (singsong) And next phase, preparing for outfitssssss!!!!!

(singsong) I'm just a small-town girl, living in a simple world but once I go out there, I'd go glam up for the world! (singsong) Hehehe.... When you look good in what you're wearing, you'll feel great in striking poses for the camera so you can have pretty pictures.  But before you go shopping for outfits especially swimsuits, you have to know your body shape first so you'll know what type of suit fits you best.  Here's a guide on how to know your body shape:

And here are swimsuit suggestions for you to check on:

Thicker straps with X-back for large chest support, halter neck to lengthen torso, and high-waist bottom to make legs appear longer.

Thin straps or strapless bandeau to flatter small chest, tiny bottom to complement wide hips.

The perfect 36-24-36!  How I wish I have this body shape.  Any type of suit can do best with this.  The sexiest body shape can don any swimsuit for the taking.

And I'm afraid I got this body shape.  Hehehe...... But I won't fret!  There are still designs that can create a curve for me.  Just like this cut-out on the sides - does wonders!

So to all girls out there who have hesitations in wearing swimsuits, come out from your shell now and think out of the box.  'Coz there's always remedy for every malady.  Hehehe....  Hope this post comes in handy to you, girls! :)

Real Girls, Real Issues, Real Deals
Have a happy planning for summer, everyone! :)

Dahilayan Adventure Park


March is here which signals the start of a very long hot summer season!  I can already feel it in the atmosphere.  I admit, summer is not really my fave season of the year 'coz I don't like that kind of warm weather.  Who wants too much hotness, right?  So to beat the heat, we find places wherein we can quench and drench our body with coldness.  And up to the highlands we go!  Here in Mindanao, we have our version of Baguio and it is Bukidnon, home of Dahilayan Adventure Park



This post is almost a year outdated for I didn't have the time to get through this last summer.  I prioritized writing about my other trips then.  But it's always better late than never, right?  I'm just reminded of this now because my colleagues are again planning for another trip this coming last week of March.  Yipey!  Our whole department is getting giddy for it.  So before that, here's our day tour escapade at Dahilayan Adventure Park!



It was lunchtime when we arrived so we had lunch directly at Pine Grove Mountain Lodge.   Their menu is just like any other menu in Mindanao hotel/resort setting.  You know, they have the basics like sinigang, fried chicken, crispy pata and the like.  I didn't even noticed if they have any specialty of the house.  To rate their food, I just give it a 6 out of 10 if we compare it internationally with respect to presentation and that distinct taste that can be remembered though they serve the same dishes with the others.
  
   
However, the interior of the place is love!  As a lover of all things rare and old, I instantly fell!  They got a collection of authentic antiques - phonograph record, telephone, barometer, guns, etc.  These are only a few of the collector's items that are on display all over the place.  You can get to touch these precious ones except the guns (of course) for these are not encased.  I guess the owner of the place is just so generous for having a little museum without restrictions to public access.



After having lunch, off we went to our adventure which is Asia's longest dual zipline!  Oh my gosh, my knees were literally quivering.  But as an acrophobic, it's my greatest pleasure to brag to you that I survived it.  Better click here for my once-in-a-lifetime zipline experience!  Thanks to Ma'am Sherile for the encouragement.



Then we roam around to see more of the place.  Though the sun is up, we feel the cold air whipping our hair with the refreshing aroma of pine trees wafting in the air.  It was just so relaxing!



So this summer, don't fail to include Dahilayan Adventure Park in your itinerary!  Visit their official website here for more information and reservations.  Tune in to The Other Side of Mae for more of our Dahilayan adventure! #tosomtravels
