#CurvesInBikinis

Today, I came across a fabulous campaign by swimsuit shop Swimsuits For All called Curves in Bikinis. The campaign features the gorgeous Ashley Graham, who became the first plus-sized model to grace the pages of Sports Illustrated when the campaign was published in the magazine's iconic swimsuit issue this month . The campaign aims to encourage women to feel body-confident in a bikini, no matter what their body shape. Although I find the campaign name rather shape-specific, I'm going to go ahead and say that, really, it applies to all body shapes. What great inspiration to grab your favourite bikini (or buy that new one you've been eyeing up) and get to the nearest beach or pool!

In honour of #CurvesInBikinis, here are my favourite bikinis that are available at the moment. Watch this space for the next swimwear post when the Summer collections drop!

Valentine's Day with your BFF

I'm sure I don't need to remind you all that Valentine's Day is just around the corner. On the whole, I think the day itself can be massively disappointing, but I was having a think, and decided that the best way to make sure you have an amazing day is to spend it with your BFF.

So, how to make BFF Day awesome?

1. Tell your BFF that BFF Day is happening. Just as couples often fall out over V Day because they were never clear with each other about whether they were going to celebrate it or not, you will be deeply disappointed if you don't communicate with your BFF about what the plan is because hey, they aren't psychic, and neither are you.

2. Plan in advance. What time your day together will start, whether you're going to get each other gifts, what you're going to get up to... I guarantee talking about what you're going to do and where you're going to go will get you really excited about the day! Surprises are also fun though, so think of something fun or silly you could make or do to surprise your friend.

3. Make a card for your BFF. Even if you can't draw, making a card is such a special touch.

4. Plan a fun activity. Get out and experience something with your BFF. Look in to what you can do locally, maybe something neither of you have done before. How about ice-skating or an obstacle course or canoeing or a mani pedi...?

5. Document the day. Get your selfie stick/selfie timer/disposable camera at the ready and get snap happy!

And as for gifts, here are some ideas :)
