Love your Bikini


Sure if that is really what you are striving towards for yourself, then I believe that you can achieve that too, but whatever you look like on the outside, the true conquering of your self-esteem and body image is in the way you think and talk to yourself and in how you feel on the inside.
How healthy is your body image?
Firstly ask yourself how many things and activities are you stopping yourself from enjoying because of the way you feel about your body? For instance
Your life is not a dress-rehearsal for when you have lost 10 kilos, have a flatter tummy or a smaller behind. Each minute, day, week that you spend in this "wait" is gone and if your body image is keeping your form living your life now, then you really have to do something about the image.
5 easy steps to do just that:
Step 1: Write a list of all the things that you love about yourself, inside and out. Are you fun, funny, loyal? Do you have beautiful eyes, hair, teeth? Remind yourself daily by looking at this list that here are the things that make you truly attractive. Dwelling on the things you don't like will only drag you down. When I lose weight, then I will be beautiful. If I can just get my abs toned, then I can wear that short choli or a bikini. All this is waiting, start knowing and feeling gorgeous now.
Step 2: Show love to your body by indulging in pleasurable activities. Get a massage, to let your senses reconnect with your body. Buy lotions that feel and smell good and spend time each day, loving your body. Go for a pedicure or facial and truly love your skin. Regular
massages can really help you heal your senses and connect positive feelings with your body.
Step 3: Challenge yourself to do one thing every week that you were waiting to only do when you think you had the body you desire. Exercise, walk or dance and connect with your spirit through movement. The media has given you the impression that only thin people are beautiful enough to express themselves with their bodies, this is in reverse though, when you are willing to start expressing yourself now, the way you are, you will feel better and you will also be on your way to having a healthier mind and body.
Step 4: Watch you’re self-talk. Replace any mean or critical things you say to yourself with positive affirmations. Focus your attention consciously all the time on the things you already have and appreciate. Write in a gratitude journal every day and say some powerful affirmations to yourself. Be like a watchman of your thoughts and self-talk. If you spoke to a friend the way you speak to yourself sometimes, I am sure you would be offending and hurting them terribly, so offer yourself the same kindness you would your friends. Don't pick on yourself! Meditate and breathe deeply in a quiet space with yourself and repeat the positive affirmations of self-love and give thanks for all that you already have. Be grateful for your body and the beautiful experiences your body is serving to you.
Step 5: Love your body. Be aware of what you eat and drink during the course of the day. In these days where information is at your fingertips, it does not take a nutritionist to tell you what is good and healthy for you and what is not.
Exercise and be active. Use your body and love it like your best friend. Give it what it needs and protect it from any abuse, physical, intake and bad talk. The above steps involve loving your body as it is right now. Not later.

Hot new swimear Pants

To lounge around in:
In next year's beach season, women can be comfortable, feel glamorous and look on trend in pants as beach cover-ups.
Bold-coloured and printed pantsuits were among the popular styles on the runway during the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim 2012 in Miami Beach, which ended this week. Slouchy pants in bright pink and black, and even a Spandex, bohemian-print legging, also might be coming soon to a beach near you.
Playful prints and vibrant hues - hot pink, acid green, cobalt blue - had their places on the catwalks in Miami Beach, as well as geometric shapes and animal-inspired prints, colours and stripes.

In Love with a Sarong over my Bikini

A sarong is a large piece of fabric that you can wrap around you as a skirt, dress or top. It can be worn short or long, and comes in all sorts of colors and patterns like animal prints, flower motifs and tie-dye. Sarongs originated in South Asia, Southeast Asia and on many Pacific Islands, and are still worn today by girls AND guys as everyday clothing. But in North America, sarongs are usually worn only by girls over their bathing suits.

Thinking Bottom

Bikini bottoms vary in style and cut and in the amount of coverage they offer, coverage ranging anywhere from complete underwear-style coverage, as in the case of more modest bottom pieces like briefs, shorts, or briefs with a small skirt-panel attached, to almost full exposure, as in the case of the thong bikini. Skimpier styles have narrow sides, including V-cut (in front), French cut (with high-cut sides) and low-cut string (with string sides).

Thinking Top

Create a balanced overall look by adding ruffles, ruches or bows to a sweetheart neckline. Patterns do wonderful things. It brings focus where you want it.

New

stylish one-piece

One piece bikinis are not always the best for laying out (if you wanted a tan) but they do look sexy on. I can see it now sitting on the beach with a large hat and sunglasses under a umbrella taking it all in.
Fun in the SUN

Brittany Jean's Video

Bikini History found by friend Katie Morris

Although Réard was an engineer, he was running his mother's shoe shop Les Folies Bergères in Paris by
1946. Réard and Jacques Heim, his rival designer, were competing to produce the world's smallest swimsuit. Heim developed his swimsuit and called it the "atom" and advertised it as "the world's smallest bathing suit.”
In 1946 Réard introduced the bikini. His swimsuit was basically a bra top and two inverted triangles of cloth connected by string and it was significantly smaller. Made out of a scant 30 inches of fabric, he promoted his creation as "smaller than the world's smallest bathing suit." He called his creation the bikini, named after the Bikini Atoll. The idea struck him when he saw women rolling up their beachwear to get a better tan.
Louis Reard introduces the worl'd first bikini at a show in Paris (he can't find a model willing to wear it, so he recruits a stripper.) he names the skimpy suit after the American A- bomb test that occuured a week earlier on Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean. Rival French designer Jacques Heim debuts his version of the bikini that summer as well, calling it the "Atom" after the atomic bomb.
