It's the start of September, which usually marks the beginning of the end of summer (and when we *finally* get to order pumpkin spice lattes again!). But before we break out the chunky sweaters and fasten our boots, Dua Lipa has gifted us with the ultimate goodbye kiss — an Instagram carousel filled with bikini, after 'kini, after 'kini.
Hearing the call from her fans that her recent poolside, butterfly swimwear pics were just not enough, the "Sweetest Pie" singer decided it would be best to simply show us everything she's worn throughout August. While we've seen her wear cottagecore 'kinis, strappy tropical tops, and citrus strings all summer long, nothing has hit quite like this. And from here on out, we're declaring September 1 as Dua Day, reminding us of this ~historical~ moment.
In the first snapshot of the dump, Dua lets her inner goddess glow in a rust orange and light tan satin bikini from Isa Boulder. The ruched, bandeau-style top is held up by bra-style, twisted straps, with the cheeky bikini bottoms matching the detailing on the hips. As if the hot, hot, hot swimwear weren't enough on its own, the bikini is reversible (two suits for the price of one!).
For her second suit, Dua wears an entirely crocheted outfit, featuring an Alice in Wonderland, Cheshire cat striped pink bikini, complete with a matching flower bucket hat from Memorial Day. The barely-there string set is fashioned in the traditional halter style, secured around the neck and back. Dua pulled the strings on the bottom high on her hips as she looked back at the camera. The songstress recently wore the same brand's open-weave Kembang Mini Skirt over her shiny, snakeskin bikini.
In her final bikini pic, Dua gave us a further look at her Y2K, Paris Hilton-inspired sparkling sequined two-piece. We just saw her do forearm stands in this suit, so we know that this triangle top and thong bottoms set stays secure. Lipa also gave us a peek at her tongue-in-cheek, crystal mini that reads "Silly B*tch." *Pulls out Bedazzler immediately.*
Oh, you thought it was over? Nah, bb. Yesterday, the Grammy-winning star posted yet another eye-popping piece by the pool. The sequined, flame-design one-piece from Loewe is giving serious scale vibes, leading us to declare that Dua had officially invented Mermaidcore. "never leaving la isla bonita," she captioned the sizzling photo set.
