27 Sexy Things to Do in a Bikini : Cosmopolitan



If there's anything that the Kate Upton Cat Daddy video taught us, it's that sometimes, you just need to throw on a bikini and flaunt what you've got. This summer, we say you get creative, and let that bikini body out whenever possible. Some ideas to get you started..


1. Wear your brightest bikini top as a bra underneath a sheer white tee, and go run your weekend errands. Count as the heads turn. View Thumbnails

2. Apply self tanner in your bikini. That way, you'll know exactly where your tan lines should begin and end, and if you get any lotion on the fabric you can easily rinse it off.

 3.Line up your bikinis, tease out your hair, and unleash your inner Brooklyn Decker as you model them for your boyfriend at home. Throw on a pair of stilettos and watch his boxers combust.

 4.While in your bikini, swipe bronzer along the contours of your abs and underneath your biceps. Then admire how instantly toned and beach-ready you look—no gym necessary.

 5.Pop in an hour-long cardio video and turn your living room into bikini boot camp. Repeat the video a few times a week, and watch your body tighten up as the weeks pass.

 6.One Sunday afternoon, offer to cook out burgers for your guy wearing only your bikini. The combo of you half-naked while wrangling the grill will blow his mind.

 7.While in your bikini, swipe bronzer along the contours of your abs and underneath your biceps. Then admire how instantly toned and beach-ready you look—no gym necessary

 8.Innocently invite your guy over "to go swimming"...but when he arrives at your place, have your bikini, cover-up, hat, and flip flops leading a trail all the way to the bedroom. Where you are obviously waiting. Totally naked

 9.Slip in a pair of chicken cutlets you'd normally use in a bra up top to maximize your cleavage. Hel-lo, bombshell.

 10.Untie your bikini top and snap a shot of your bare back in the mirror with your phone. Text it to your guy with the message, "I need some sunscreen help. You available?" Guaranteed he'll be at your door in five.

 11.Post up on the floor and give yourself an at-home gradient mani/pedi—huge right now. They take some finesse, so less clothing in the way means less chance you'll smudge the polish before it dries 

12.Use the strings from your bikini top to tie your guy's hands behind his back, and then tantalize him with a full-body massage. The torture of not being able to take you then and there will make his toes curl.

 13.Bake brownies in your bikini. Why? Not only will you feel like the ultimate domestic goddess, but boobs + brownies = freaking awesome.

 14. Grab a white suit (or one in any light color) and challenge your boyfriend to a water balloon fight. If you're feeling really naughty, remove the nip-guard lining up top beforehand. Heh heh

 15.Wax your legs. You're practically naked so you won't miss a hair—plus, the smoothness will last for weeks, unlike if you'd just shaved.

 16.Do yoga in your bikini. Seeing your body contorted into the downward dog or feathered peacock will remind you how smokin' you are, and could inspire some bedroom ideas for later...

 17.Transform an old scarf into a Kim-K-esque sarong to wear with your bikini. Instant hourglass, baby.

 18.Set your camera timer and practice taking bikini shots to see which poses make your abs look the most awesome. Then when that beach trip rolls around, you'll know exactly what to do when someone in your crew whips out a camera.

 19. Have you-on-top sex in your bikini. Your suit has less support than a bra would, so he'll get quite the, ahem, show.

 20.On a super hot day, slip an ice cube in each cup of your bikini top. The cooling sensation as the ice cubes slowly melt over the girls? We can't even...

 21.Hit up a concert this summer and wear a bikini underneath your outfit. Halfway through the show when you're melting from the heat, lose the shirt and rock out in your swim top.

 22.Try hula-hooping in your bikini, because a) it's a super trendy form of cardio right now and b) it's essentially just gratuitous gyrating. If your guy catches a glimpse, he'll be all over you like fudge on a sundae. 

23.Find a mirror and experiment with different, creative ways to tie your top, like criss-crossing the straps over your chest, or twisting them down together down your back and tucking them.

 24.When you know your guy is coming over one afternoon, "accidentally" fall asleep on the couch in your tiniest suit. When he finds you, you're guaranteed the best wake-up ever.

 25.When you spot your delish man neighbor outside, shamelessly saunter out to get the mail bikini-clad, giving him a glimpse of the goods. Hey, you need those rando catalogs and stuff.

 26.Host a Hamptons-themed brunch for your girls with a bikini-only dress code. Spend the afternoon sipping frozen cocktails and pretending to be Real Housewives.

 27.Use YouTube tutorials to finally learn how to belly dance in your bikini. Even if you're no Shakira, five bucks says you'll still look hot, hot, hot.
