White swimsuits are a do. It especially makes darker skin pop!

Sunburn- don’t. Slap on some sunscreen. That includes you, too, chocolate divas.

Mixing and matching your tops and bottoms, i.e., striped top and solid bottom, is a do.

Wearing a thong bikini? Eh, not so much. It’s a don’t- too much skin.

To little top and wedgie-inducing bottoms. Obviously (I hope it’s obvious) a don’t.

It’s always a do to wear a swimsuit appropriate for your body type.

Don’t wear heels to the beach or pool. Need I say more?
