Finding great plus-size clothing can be quite a struggle, especially in a fashion world that is ruled by sizes two, six, and four. Cute plus-size swimsuits can be even more difficult to come by. Most retailers only stock them a few months out of the year, and they tend to be both twice as unflattering and twice as expensive as so-called "regular size" bathing suits.

Fortunately, brick and mortar stores are no longer the only option for the curvaceous shopper. There are a lot of attractive, stylish options online for the more voluptuous among us to choose from. One favourite trends among plus size beauties is the skirtini. It's got the sex appeal of a bikini, but with a cute, flattering miniskirt instead of a pair of traditional bikini bottoms. The skirtini flatters the tummy, hips, and thighs, adding some flirty detail, elevating a plain old bikini to a fresh, fashionable, and fabulous new level. A skirtini will give you the confidence to take back the beach! Why should plus-size women feel that they aren’t sexy, breezy, or trendy? The skirtini is in — so embrace it by hopping online and browsing through the ample selection at one of many online retailers.

In addition to following all the hot new trends, online shops offer a dazzling array of color, size, and style choices for the buyer to choose from. Instead of trudging through a department store searching for the plus-size section (and finally finding it squished into the dimly lit corner between the clearance section and the bathroom), we can browse the options from the comfort of our own home. Goodbye overly warm dressing rooms and hello comfy sofa!

Online merchandise is also usually available all year round. Imagine for a moment that you're going on a lovely holiday vacation to Australia. Their summer is during the American winter. You would love a new skirtini for the occasion, but most stores don't stock them at this time of year, especially not in plus sizes, but fortunately, you can easily find one online, and probably at a better price than you would have gotten in a store. Many sites are offering mid-season sales and there are even contest giveaways — check out the curves out contest over at swimsuitsforall.com to get an idea of what’s available.

One more advantage to online shopping is the ease of comparison. You can easily look at several products and compare prices and customer reviews before choosing which to purchase. There's no combing through disorganized racks in the hope that you might find something wearable. With online shopping at swimsuitsforall, you're practically guaranteed to find a swimsuit that's cute, flattering, and cost effective.

Plus-size women are sick and tired of always being shoved into the corner at stores and of donning the same ugly, unflattering swimsuits year after year. The online shopping revolution and sites like swimsuitsforall have finally given us a place to find what we want, whenever we want it. We're not going back.
