🎒 What’s in My Beach Bag?

Let’s be real—forgetting sunscreen or not having a fresh pair of sunnies can totally kill the vibe. That’s why I’ve rounded up the ultimate beach bag checklist, including:

• SPF 50+ Sunscreen (Face + Body)
• Hydrating Mist or Aloe Spray for a midday refresh
• Chic Sunglasses with UV protection
• Oversized Towel or Turkish Blanket
• Reusable Water Bottle to stay cool and hydrated
• Healthy Beach Snacks (Think: fruit, trail mix, or protein bars)
• A Good Book or Magazines
• Hair Ties + Wide-Brim Hat for that sun-shielding glam
• Portable Charger because, let’s face it, selfies.

Pro Tip: Keep everything organized in a water-resistant pouch or clear zip bag so your tech and toiletries stay dry.

👙 Best Swimsuits for Every Body Type

In the video, I try on a range of swimsuits and explain how to choose styles that highlight your favorite features. Here’s a quick breakdown:

• Hourglass Shape: High-waisted bikinis and wrap tops emphasize curves without sacrificing support.
• Pear Shape: Look for tops with detailing or patterns to balance proportions; high-cut bottoms elongate the legs.
• Athletic Build: Cut-out one-pieces or bold prints add definition and shape.
• Curvy/Plus Size: Underwire bikini tops, ruched one-pieces, and swim skirts offer structure and style.
• Petite Frames: Triangle bikinis or plunging necklines lengthen the torso for a taller look.
