This year, with the Ralph Lauren Christmas trend everywhere, I leaned all the way in with layered plaids, velvet ribbon, and gold tags. It gives that traditional, high-end, cozy-library Christmas vibe without replacing a single piece of décor.

Embrace Your Swimsuit Confidence: Poses for Poolside Photos

Before diving into our main discussion, let’s address the elephant in the room: wearing your swimsuit. Yes, you read it right – just wear it. Embrace your beauty, your hotness (quite literally under the sun), and savor these moments while they last.

So, wear. Your. Swimsuit.

Don’t let your reservations about your body hold you back from enjoying life to the fullest.

Now, picture this: you’re all set to hit the pool, but then someone suggests taking some photos. Suddenly, panic sets in. You’re already out of your comfort zone in your swimsuit, and now the thought of being photographed in it amplifies your anxiety. What should you do?

Firstly, it’s crucial to understand that being confident in your appearance doesn’t mean you shouldn’t aim to look your best in photos. Wanting to showcase yourself in the best light is natural – it’s about feeling empowered and comfortable in your own skin.

Here are four simple poses that can help you feel more confident and flatter your body shape in poolside photos, regardless of your level of confidence:

Pop Your Knee

This one is easy and can be applied to any outfit you are wearing. Just bend one knee and slightly tilt it toward the center of your body. I have big thighs and if there was an area I would like to camouflage it would be my inner thigh. This is an easy way to showcase the better side of your leg. This also tightens your muscle and makes you leg look tighter.

Best Foot Forward

Same principle as bending your knee except this will make your leg look longer. Pictures that are taken straight on are rarely the best angle, so this helps give a slight shift to your frame. If you take this picture from a lower angle it is going to make you look taller and gorgeous.

Kneeling

I know sitting in a swimsuit may seem scary so we are going to give you another option. I love kneeling. It also works if you are taking pics with someone who is already sitting. Spread your knees ever so slightly apart.

In the water

Standing on the stairs where the water hits you on your hip is such a cute way to pose. You are still showcasing your suit but it may be a more comfortable position for you. Also, a down angle is never a bad shot for your face so standing on the step and having someone photograph you down at a slight angle is a good trick.

In conclusion, embracing your swimsuit confidence isn’t just about wearing the garment – it’s about owning it with pride and enjoying every moment, both in person and in photographs. Remember, your beauty transcends any perceived imperfections, and these simple poses can help you showcase your confidence and radiance for the world to see.

So go ahead, wear your swimsuit, strike a pose, and make memories that you’ll cherish for a lifetime. You deserve it!

You are beautiful!

XO,

Tiffany

When I started working for myself, my biggest fear When I started working for myself, my biggest fear wasn’t finding clients… it was figuring out health insurance.

I thought it would be confusing, overwhelming, and way too expensive. But I learned that coverage through Louisiana Blue is actually more affordable than I expected, and it includes the things that really matter: preventive care, mental health, and family planning.

And with kids, you never know what might happen, so coverage isn’t optional.

Open enrollment for Marketplace plans started on November 1st, but there’s still time to find a plan that works for you.

I know navigating the ACA Marketplace can be tricky, but the good news is you can get help from an agent and it’s completely free. Call 833-616-2288 to speak to an agent about coverage.
