We don't know about you, but we find posing in front of the camera ten times harder when you're at the beach in your swimsuit and surrounded by people. One thing that can help is having pegs at the ready so you know exactly what kind of picture you're going for. Enter: Celeb beach babes! Their Instagram grids are a gold mine of posing inspo that you can save and recreate on your own.
Klea Pineda is one celeb who spends as much time in the water as she does on land, and her IG feed definitely shows that. She's mastered the art of striking low-key sultry yet classic poses when she's at the beach, so if you need some inspo for your next summer trip, she's your girl! Ahead, we round up some of her best summer-ready swimsuit poses.
LOOK: 8 IG-Worthy Swimsuit Poses We're Copying From Klea Pineda This Summer
1. Let your bod do all the talking by covering your face with a cap.
2. Not yet ready to show all of your body just yet? Take a leaf from Klea's book and hug your legs to your chest.
3. It can be awkward standing alone in your bikini, so it helps if there's something in the frame with you that can help balance out the picture.
4. Props in your swimsuit pics are optional, but still cute nonetheless. Klea's weapon of choice? Her summer cocktail!
5. When in doubt, take a full-body mirror selfie.
6. Sunglasses are your BFF if you want to take a bikini pic without showing off too much of your face.
7. If you can't be bothered to stand up for your picture, have it taken while you're lying down on your stomach. Time to get that tan!
8. Feeling self-conscious? Hide your bare face with your favorite cap.
