Renovate Your Bikini!

Oi!

Well, the sun has finally come out here, so I am more inclined to chat about bikinis again! It has been a crazy couple of weeks and now it is time to breathe and offer you some tips on how to change the look of those bikinis in your drawer!

You all have those string bikinis in your drawer that may be a bit older or a little boring (if you purchased them somewhere other than from Belo Sol ;)) and you would like to just get rid of them, well here`s a better solution then throwing them out (unless of course they desperately need to be thrown out!) Get out those Belo Sol or other brand of bikinis you have and let`s transform them!

Here`s a pic of a typical string bikini top:

Now take the top and flip it so that the bottom is now tied around your neck:

or Cross it and tie around your neck:
Here`s a couple of different looks for the ``bandeau`` style suits:

Take the part that normally ties behind your back, cross and tie around your neck, tie other string around back. Now this style is definitely not for wave riding...only pool sitting. It`s a little crazy, but oh so unique! (Also, this is a large suit on small mannequin...looks a little better if the suit fits you! Which yours should!)

Here`s a true sun tanning design, tie behind back or tie in bow in front...No beach volleyball while sporting this style either!

Loop in a knot and tie to the string in the back for another sexy look!

Here are a few tips for tying your bikini nice and tight for playing in the waves, running down the beach or jumping up to spike the ball into the sand...

Cross in the back and instead of just tying behind your neck, pull each string down to meet the string in back. Tie in knots to back string tightly...obviously you will need some help with this one!

Same idea on this one, just tie all strings in one big tight knot...then go run into the waves without fear!

There`s a few tips, now go try it and while you are in your bathing suit drawer...pull out the OLDEST, UGLIEST SUIT that you own. Now dont throw it away yet, send me a pic, I will post a few of them here and at the end of May, I will pick a winner of the Oldest & Ugliest BIKINI contest! You will receive a $25 gift certificate, so that you can throw away that suit and get a new one! If you send in a pic, I will also send you a treat, so make sure you add your mailing address to the email.
