Look Great at the Pool

Do you want to look great while at the pool? Some simple know-how about key accessories will have you feeling great and looking even better.

Steps

  1. Obtain a bathing suit that looks good on your figure. You don't have to get a bikini. Just wear what you are going to be comfortable wearing; tankinis, full-piece swimsuits, bikinis with skirts or wraps - all are fine provided they fit well. Make sure to get patterns or colors that are bright and summery. If you like a certain part of your body, dress to flatter that part. Like if you have long legs, then wear bottoms that have ties on the sides. If you like your back, wear a backless. If you like your butt, wear bottoms with ruffles.
  2. Purchase a great pair of sunglasses. They don't have to be a designer brand to look good. You can get a great looking pair at any drugstore. Just make sure that they suit your personality and look good on you.
  3. Wear cute summery sandals. Get some that are bright colors. Make sure that they are comfortable though because they could hurt your feet.
  4. Be manicured. Since your feet are going to be showing a lot, then your toenails are going to need to be cut neatly and painted in bright fun colors. You could try hot pink, lime green, or bright orange. Luminescent pastels are also cool.
  5. Add sunscreen lotion. Before you leave the house rub or spray your sunscreen lotion on. This will give it time to soak in or dry and will be effective from the time you're facing the glare of the sun.

Tips

  • Try putting your hair in a high ponytail or bun or a side high bun or ponytail that makes people notice you more also try putting a bow made out of ribbon it shows your cute.
  • Have a bright, summery beach towel to lay on. Make sure that it is colorful or has a cute pattern.
  • Try putting on some waterproof mascara. They also have waterproof eyeliner, and many lip glosses have staying power as well.
  • Earrings can still work if you wear them. Make sure that they are studs though, because you don't want them to fall off or get stuck on something.
  • Add a cute bracelet or ankle bracelet if you like being adorned. Make sure that it fits well because you don't want these items to fall off in the pool - you'll never find them again! Mix them if you want a truly sporty look - jewelry is a hassle not attractive in this case.
  • A hair holder of some sort, and leave in conditioner are great to have. if you put your hair in a braid, its convenient, looks good, and when your hair dries, it gives you cute waves.
  • If you want to wear jewelry to the pool, make sure it is jewelry that wears well in water, preferably originally from the water, such as pearls (fake, so it's no big deal if they break) shell and mother of pearl jewelry.

Warnings

  • Don't put on lots of make-up that will smear off.
  • Make sure that you are going to be comfortable in the bathing suit you choose. You don't want to be uncomfortable at the pool.
