" A holiday weekend is around the bend, and for some, that means shopping for swimsuits at the absolutely palest time of the year (as you guys know, I&amp;#x27;m fond of a HEALTHY tan made possible by self-tanning lotion and copious amounts of bronzer). And after trying on a bikini for a recent vacation, I realized I needed some help feeling good about myself in a swimsuit in January. So I asked the experts of OndadeMar, which just opened a new boutique in Los Angeles, about tips for vacation swimsuit shopping in the middle of the winter. Here&amp;#x27;s what they said: Visualize Yourself at Your Destination: Will you be waterskiing? Then you&amp;#x27;ll need a supportive style that doesn&amp;#x27;t budge too much. Perhaps even a rash guard. Lounging by the pool? It&amp;#x27;s string-bikini time! Bring a Friend: That person will tell you the truth! You can chat with a knowledgeable sales associate as well to make sure you aren&amp;#x27;t missing any of the best-sellers in the store. Experiment!: In winter, you could consider a cutout swimsuit (no need to worry about funky tan lines on vacay!). Also, a one-piece is a good idea for a winter holiday. Make Sure Your Accessories Multitask: The sarong that you wear as a skirt on the beach in St. Lucia can work as a beach scarf in Nantucket this summer. I&amp;#x27;m loving these styles from OndadeMar: OK, I feel a little better about going swimsuit shopping. I think I&amp;#x27;ll try a cutout style. How about you?
