Tension creates tons of gorgeous emotion,” Burciu-Ballen says. “Tension is best achieved when you move with intention and allow the stretch or movement to go as far as it naturally will.”

This one is hands down a client favorite and guaranteed to set your partner on fire,” Burciu-Ballen says. And from barely-there bottoms to bathing suits with body jewelry, it’s safe to say that 2021 has seen some seriously sexy snaps. When the stars aren’t channeling the early aughts, many have looked to western style for inspo. Everyone from Olivia Jade to Dua Lipa has decided that adding a pair of leather boots and a cowgirl hat is the coolest new summer look. And hey, who are we to argue?!

Kim's best friend Jonathan Cheban (AKA Foodgod) jokingly confirmed that the SKIMS founder didn't shoot these sizzling pics in California. ami-related id="1920495" url="https://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/pictures/lizzos-bikini-body-sexy-swimsuit-style-pics/" title="Lizzo Declares the Start of ‘Big Grrrl Summer’ in Itty-Bitty Bikini" target="_blank" thumb="false" imgsrc="https://www.usmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Lizzo-Declares-The-Start-of-Big-Girl-Summer-In-Itty-Bitty-Bikini-Promo.jpg?quality=86&strip=all" imgid="2046378" format="gallery" flag="" channel="33"]

A special shoutout goes to Emily Ratajkowski, who rang in her birthday this year in a gorgeous mermaid-inspired Versace bikini. Donatella Versace even gave the star her stamp of approval, commenting on the model’s post. “The birthday mermaid!!! 🧜‍♀️ you look STUNNING 💙💛🧡 @emrata,” the fashion designer wrote. According to Burciu-Ballen, standing on your tip-toes “elongate the legs and engage the leg muscles for a super sexy result. Whether you are sitting, laying down or standing — always activate your ballerina toe stance. You’ll be glad you did.” Bikini babes! With summer in full swing, stars have been showing off their cute suits and spunky style.Using the soft flat part of your fingertips, move hands across the chest, starting at your collar bones and tracing the skin in an outward motion and your eyes looking down towards your hands,” Burciu-Ballen says. “Head tilted to the side, chin down towards your collar bone. Perfection.” Meanwhile look away and think of a sexy secret — and imagine your partner walking into the room as you’re about to let them in on what that secret entails and how they’re going to enjoy the delicious details.” Stand firmly on one leg, the other leg bent and knee dropped across the standing leg. One arm bent up into your hair, other arm down and bent, hand on hip or on belly. As always, head tilted slightly to the side, this time looking up as though to meet your partner’s gaze.

She went on to credit celebrity hair stylist Chris Appleton and celebrity make-up artist Hrush Achemyan for the look. Stand by a window, full on side view to the camera, sheets up onto your body, billowing out between your legs. Stand close to the wall and lean into it, arm high up. Cross your legs and go up on your toes. Tug away or down at your bra strap for added tension. The mother of four clearly enjoyed her photo shoot in Mexico as she captioned her post, "Happy Place."
