How to wear a bikini
How I did it: My boyfriend mentioned that he'd never seen me in a bikini and after we planned a trip to Spain, he was really hinting that I should get some.
Most of the time I wore a cover up in public anyway but knowing that my boyfriend was loving it and telling me how hot I was in it made me less shy and more confident. Also, when you're on the beach there are so many other people wearing bikinis that no one even notices. You look more out of place if you ARE all covered up.
Lessons & tips: Wear your bikini under a dress or something for the first day or two. Just knowing you are ACTUALLY WEARING IT helps you get over the idea that it's a big deal. Then when you're on a the beach and you see everyone else wearing theirs, you can just take off your cover-up and blend right in!
Resources: Definitely glad I wore 60 SPF sunscreen, as everyone was burnt to a crisp and I got a nice tan after a week.
My boyfriend was definitely helpful because he kept admiring me and when I was beside him, he'd rub my legs or my tummy or my shoulders because they were in sight and he'd do it subconsciously. I loved that.
