Kiersten’s Blog

With summer fast approaching, I have decided to take it upon myself to give any of you who may be traveling to the beach, a few tips.  As a frequent beach-goer, I have seen some good ideas, and some bad ideas.  The purpose of today’s blog is to inform you of the things you should not do while attending the beach.

1. If you are pregnant, don’t wear a bikini.  I don’t care how beautiful your baby belly is to you, a bikini on a pregnant woman is just, well, not a good idea.

2. If you are comfortable enough in your own skin to wear a bikini, more power to you, but please don’t be showing cellulite or fat rolls.  It’s not flattering.

3. If you are a guy, don’t wear a speedo.  And don’t surf in a speedo.  I don’t care how many hail Marys you do and how many times you cross yourself, wearing a speedo at the beach is just not a good idea.

4. Don’t wear a thong.  I’m not talking about those sandals you wear on your feet, I’m talking about the other kind of thong.  And especially if you’re about 60 and have cellulite, a bright yellow thong is not going to detract from your slightly (or more than slightly) flawed body.
