Livvy Dunne sunbathes in all-American red string bikini and cowboy hat
Reigning Sports illustrated swimsuit issue cover Livvy Dunne celebrated the long July 4 weekend in style, hitting the beach in the Hamptons in a stunning, all-American look. Wearing a red-and-white checkered string bikini and cowboy hat, she soaked in the strong holiday weekend sun. 'Red, white & freckled,' the influencer, model and former gymnastics queen, 22, captioned her Saturday, July 5 Instagram post that featured three photos of her in the patriotic outfit. She even sunbathed on a red, white and blue towel. 'Gorgeous,' commented her friend and fellow Sports Illustrated model Xandra Pohl, who recently moved to the Hamptons. 'Can we hang out,' Dunne responded. The carousel share had a whopping 800 comments, including a flood of heart eyes and red heart emojis. 'You're glowing, freckles and all,' raved one fan. 'You are absolutely the American Dream,' agreed another. 'Young goddess,' said a third. The current SI swimsuit issue marks Dunne's third consecutive appearance in the coveted magazine and her first time on the cover. She also recently walked in the magazine's May runway show that closed out Miami Swim Week at the glam W South Beach. Dunne's dropping into a perfect split on the catwalk was one of the show's many highlights. The content creator, who's dating star Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, led her former collegiate gymnastics team LSU to its first-ever NCAA championships in 2024. Read More!

How swimwear is taking a daring dive back to the 80s with thin gussets and sky-high cuts
Forget full briefs or bikini shorts, everywhere you look at the moment, from M&S to New Look and Primark, has hip-high cuts SWIMCREDIBLE How swimwear is taking a daring dive back to the 80s with thin gussets and sky-high cuts SWIMWEAR trends, like every other part of fashion, come and go in waves. And this year we seem to be revisiting the '80s with super-high-cut bikini lines sure to leave you needing a Hollywood wax. 5 Former Love Islander Maura Higgins shows off her svelte figure in a barely-there bikini with a high cut 5 Kim K unveiled her latest Skims collaboration featuring a super-high-cut animal-print one-piece Credit: Instagram/KimKardashian First made famous in that decade by supermodels such as Cindy Crawford, Elle Macpherson and Christy Turlington, wedgie- inducing swimwear is back. And this time round, it's not just for celebs and reality telly stars - the high street is pushing us mere mortals to tackle thin gussets, too. Forget full briefs or bikini shorts, everywhere you look at the moment, from M&S to New Look and Primark, has hip-high cuts and bum-cheek-exposing cossies. With Love Island back on our screens and the women scantily clad in swimwear every episode, we expected to see a resurgence of the V-cut gusset. And last week Kim Kardashian, 44, unveiled her latest Skims collaboration with Italian brand Roberto Cavalli, featuring a super-high-cut animal-print one-piece. Meanwhile, sister Kylie, 27, stepped out in a vintage Chanel swimsuit, with a sky-high cut, first worn by Claudia Schiffer in 1995. Just a few weeks ago Miami Swim Week — the pinnacle of all swimsuit catwalks — saw a host of high V cuts, with TikTok sensation Alix Earle, 24, strutting down the runway in a barely-there bikini. Model Iris Law, 24, recently wore a black high-cut swimsuit, and former Love Islanders Maura Higgins, 34 and Zara McDermott, 28, have been showing off their svelte figures in them, too. Gusset gauge Host of the reality show Maya Jama, 30, has also been spotted wearing a barely-there bikini while on holiday this year. Of course, these women all looked phenomenal, but for the rest of us enjoying a break on the Costa Del Sol or taking a dip at the local swimming pool, it's not an easy look to pull off. Alisha Lehmann shows off her bikini body as she models new swimwear range Aside from the obvious extremely bare bikini line you need to have, there's also the probability you'll spend all your holiday sorting out your wedgie, or even worse a flash of some flesh you definitely don't want strangers to see. Yes, we expect to see these flimsy cuts at Gen Z fave brands like Nasty Gal and River Island. But I was surprised to see M&S selling this type of bikini bottoms, as the brand is renowned for selling comfortable underwear, particularly big 'granny'-style pants. It seems there is no escaping it if our sensible shops are hopping on board. You have to wonder why. There is a huge appetite for '80s nostalgia currently, across music and fashion, and there are parallels between the economies of back then and now — both decades are characterised by economic uncertainty and fluctuating inflation rates. 5 Zara McDermott, 28, stuns in the trendy bikini which is difficult to pull off Credit: Instagram 5 TikTok sensation Alix Earle, 24, strutting down the runway in a barely-there bikini at Miami Swim Week Credit: Getty 5 The swimwear was first made famous by supermodels such as Cindy Crawford, pictured, Elle Macpherson and Christy Turlington Credit: B915 We know about the hemline index, but could the gusset gauge be a more accurate indicator of how consumers feel about the state of the economy? Whatever the reasons, there are, of course, aesthetic benefits to high-cut swimsuits — they give the illusion of longer legs and a smaller waist. But if you are going to wear it, you really do need to commit to the trend — booking in for that wax and giving yourself a body-confidence pep talk, because there really is nowhere to hide.

Bethenny Frankel Sells Greenwich Home for Huge $7.8 Million
entered a completely different, extremely online phase of life following her Real Housewives of New York exit. These days, Bethenny is most often found on TikTok, eating chicken salad or providing a controversial opinion on pop culture. However, she also recently debuted her runway modeling skills during Miami Swim Week. There seems to be no bounds to what Bethenny will try. If you've been following the chronicles of Bethenny in 2025, you might know she also recently moved to Florida. She still has her Hamptons home and city apartment, but now she's also calling the Sunshine State her home. In order to make room for a new piece of property, Bethenny decided to sell her house in Connecticut, and apparently, she got a pretty penny for the deal. According to Greenwich Time, Bethenny's Connecticut home recently sold for $7.825 million. The 3.05-acre property, dubbed 'Applejack Farm,' features a five-bedroom, eight-bathroom house from 1743 with a guest cottage. It sounds like something out of a fairytale. A home gym, a full bar, historic rooms, a pottery barn and more are standout features of this home fit for a Real Housewives star. Also, apparently, for a notable politician — a former Connecticut governor lived in the home for more than a decade before Bethenny. Truly, the home is the epitome of lavishness, so it's no surprise B got quite the payday for the sale. Now, we just have to make sure that Dorinda Medley never sells Blue Stone Manor because that's one New England home that needs to stay in the Bravo family. Real Housewives of New York is available to stream on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland. TELL US – WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT BETHENNY'S MAJOR HOME SALE? ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT SHE MOVED TO FLORIDA? The post Bethenny Frankel Sells Greenwich Home for Huge $7.8 Million appeared first on Reality Tea.

Ibiza Swim Week strengthens international presence in second edition
Last Friday, Ibiza hosted the second edition of Ibiza Swim Week, an event that continues to carve out its place in the international swimwear fashion calendar. The initiative, which is steadily gaining momentum, is spearheaded by Nía Vásquez, founder of Ibiza-based premium bikini label Cocora Shop. This year, the number of participating brands doubled compared to its inaugural edition, reaching a total of 16 labels, highlighting Vásquez's ambition to position Ibiza as a European hub for designer beachwear. International participation and local presence The brand lineup featured names from the US, Canada, Brazil, Colombia, France, Italy, the UK, Spain, and Hawaii, alongside three Ibiza-based labels, reflecting a blend of global appeal and local identity. Drawing inspiration from formats such as Miami Swim Week and New York Swim Week, Ibiza Swim Week combined runway shows with a direct-to-consumer market, live DJ sets, and artistic performances. The immersive format is designed to engage not only end consumers, but also buyers and industry professionals. Organisers noted that "both the casting and the selection criteria were managed from the US," aiming to uphold production standards aligned with leading American swimwear events.

Set against the backdrop of the Hotel Aguas de Ibiza in Santa Eulalia, the event sought proximity to the area's affluent tourist demographic.
