Shop bikinis under €50
Yesterday was one of those workdays where you actually wanted to lie on the beach with a cocktail in your hand and the cutest bikini on. It was so warm that even my laptop started sweating. And honestly? The rest of the week looks like it’s sponsored by the sun itself. Heatwaves incoming and those air conditioners on full blast. Am I the only one who already feels a bit of bikini panic coming on? Because let’s be honest: the cutest bikinis are often gone first. And those over 60 euros - just for the top? I’ll leave that for someone else. I’ve spotted the cutest bikini sets for you under €50. Yes, really. And note: some links only lead you to the top or bottom, but if you scroll down a bit, you’ll see the matching item next to it. Easy peasy - and that for less than €50.
What bikinis are we going to see on the beach?
No more hidden simple black triangles (although: always good as a basic), but give me color, texture, and a good dose of pastel vibes. This year, your bikini should stand out. I’m going for floral prints and underwire tops this summer. Think lilac, mint green, baby blue. Colors that match the sky, the sea, and yes: the beach. One of the biggest trends you’ll spot everywhere? Texture. Ribbed, or those crinkle fabrics — anything but flat and smooth. Your bikini can look like a fun summer outfit on its own. The time when you only wore it to swim is over. Sunbathing is actually a stationary fashion show. Combine your bikini with a linen shirt, a straw hat, and voilà: beach outfit complete. This is how you feel sexy in your bikini.
About that tan under your bikini
let’s talk about self-tan. Because let’s be honest, on day 1 in Spain, you’re not that brown yet. Self-tan is now an essential part of our summer prep. In fact, it’s become a fixed part of my weekend ritual. And the great thing? With self-tan, you also get brown in the sun. On your first day of vacation, you already win the ‘who is the brownest of us two?’ contest –thanks to self-tan. My favorite self-tan? That’s definitely b.tan. Not only do you get brown in no time, just look at that packaging, it also looks cute in your suitcase.

This is how you pimp your beach look
Okay, you’ve already scored that cute bikini, but you’re not quite done yet. Because let’s be honest: a beach look is no longer just about a bikini and flip-flops. How do you turn your beach outfit into a really cute look, so that you get approached by cute Spaniards at that beach tent? I’ll give you the tips to effortlessly switch from beach towel to beach bar. Layers = key. Throw an oversized linen blouse over your bikini or choose a fun printed kimono. Sorry, but leave that leopard print in the store, choose something simpler instead. Trust me, this summer leopard print is totally out. Accessories make the look. Think of a wide-brimmed straw hat, a thick, large pair of sunglasses, and fun stainless steel jewelry. This year, big earrings and bracelets are totally in, so make sure you have those ready. Here you score the cutest.
Don’t get burned, okay?
As soon as the sun shows even one ray, all of the Netherlands checks the UV — getting as brown as possible is our goal. But let’s be honest: no one wants to come home like a red lobster. So don’t forget to apply sunscreen well and repeat that every two hours. And no, factor 50 is not just for kids, you need it too. If you’re afraid you won’t get brown if you apply sunscreen well, you’re mistaken — you’ll still get brown, but safely and maybe a bit slower. Don’t forget the edges of your bikini straps, those are exactly the spots where you burn quickly without realizing it. And if you’re extra smart? Bring a big beach hat and seek shade from time to time. Just lay that hat over your face, anything to prevent wrinkles. Bonus points if you choose sunscreen with a bit of shine — that way you’ll shine twice as hard. Here you shop for the best sunscreen.
