That there are a handful of flattering poses anyone can break out beach or poolside? They’re blogger and celebrity-approved! Ahead I’ve rounded up a few great tips I’ve found on the feeds of these fashion pros, from fun props to leg-lengthening options.

Do The Model Lean:
Sitting upright in a bathing suit is unflattering on almost anybody. Instead, lean back and prop yourself up on your elbows to tighten your stomach. Have your bestie take your photo from an angle, and slightly bend your knees to elongate your legs.
Go About Your Day:
Take the stress out of striking a pose. Instead, stroll while the camera snaps away. It’ll feel more natural.
Show Off Your Assets:
Put them front and center. For example: If you had one too many beach BBQ treats, hide the bloat by bending your knees in front of your stomach when taking a photo straight on.
Add a Fun Pop of Pattern:
Pick a standout bold hue to make your beach setup more stylish—either way, a chic towel will take your already beach-chic ensemble to the enviable next level. Call it surf couture. Call it California girl. Call it beach-bumming babe. Whatever you will, surf-inspired towel styles are hitting the racks in a big way, whether you call the West Coast home or not. Classic stripes, geometry patterns to whimsical eye-catchers these towels will make you want to snap a photo of your ‘beach life’ ASAP
