It’s March right now. Before you know it, Instagram will be flooded with pool party and vacation pictures. Provided that I’m typing this while having another slice of pizza, the summer body I’ve been dreaming of is not going to happen. If you’re anything like me, here’s a quick lesson on how to get a beach body:
1. Put a bikini on your body.
You don’t have to be a size zero for that. Every body is a bikini body. But before you dive in, give these Bollywood-approved bikini sets a glance. Get your glasses on, play Havana on loud and sunscreen your way into a celeb-like vacay.
1. Taapsee Pannu, Judwaa 2
From the courtroom in Pink straight to the beach in Judwaa 2, Taapsee is appreciated not just for her acting skills but also for this bitchin’ bikini we saw her in. This printed bikini set is a happy reminder of a Spring that’s in the offing. Wear it to a pool party with tassels to create a splash.
POPxo Recommends: Blue Reversible Bikini (Rs 3,239) by Billabong.
2. Alia Bhatt, Student Of The Year
Everyone wears a bikini but sarong wraps came back to life with Alia’s debut movie Student of the Year. With a tie-up halter neck bikini top and matching sarong over briefs, this itsy-bitsy yellow (no polka dot) bikini is perfect for a sunbathing kind of day.
POPxo Recommends: High-Leg Yellow Bikini Set (Rs 660) by Shein.
3. Katrina Kaif, Baar Baar Dekho
Katrina gave us oh-so-many #BeachBabe goals in a four-minute long song. With a no-show top, this red bikini is perfect for those who want to keep things modest on a crowded beach. Take a swim, dance all evening, and don’t worry because the twins are safe.
POPxo Recommends: Ruffled Halter Neck Bikini (Rs 1,399) by Pretty Secrets.
4. Jacqueline Fernandez, Judwaa 2
Can you imagine yourself running on the beach like Yasmine Bleeth from Baywatch? You don’t need a red one-piece swimsuit for that. Jackie’s ribonny bikini is ‘it.’ I can already see hundreds of likes on your gram, ladies.
POPxo Recommends: Beautiful Yellow Bikini (Rs 775) by Cilory.
5. Deepika Padukone, Cocktail
I clearly remember how I learned to dive some six years ago. My inspiration was Deepika’s badass dive from the deck of the ferry in Cocktail. Remember? She was also my #BeachBody inspiration that I’m nowhere close to. But that’s no reason to not wear this orange bikini.
POPxo Recommends: Orange Triangle Bikini Set (Rs 726) by Shein.
6. Kareena Kapoor, Tashan
If you’re at the beach and the song Chhaliya does not play in your head, were you even at the beach? A true Bebo fan won’t miss out on this green bikini set. Go big, go backless.
POPxo Recommends: Colour Pop Green Bikini (Rs 1,150) by The Beach Company.
7. Anushka Sharma, Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
When you have an LBD, why not an LBB too? ‘Life is too short to wear a boring bikini’ and Anushka’s fancy-nancy black bikini is the perfect example of it.
POPxo Recommends: Black Swim Bikini Set (Rs 879) by N-Gal.
8. Sonam Kapoor, Bewakoofiyaan
Channel your inner fashionista, just like Sonam, with this strapless bikini set in a bright pink. Perfect for a no strings attached kind of day. Are you and your cosmo ready?
POPxo Recommends: Knot Front Bandeau Bikini Set (Rs 778) by Romwe.
I can already smell the sea. So, who are you going as on your next beach vacay?
