LETTER FROM THE EDITOR BEACH BUMMING Some days I wake up and wonder why on earth I haven t packed it all in and travelled the world snapping pics of myself, clad in a sliver of a bikini on a tropical island... And then I have to remind myself that my Insta handle is @danweakley not @moonstrucktraveller... Which is about the time that my first tears of the day roll down my freshly exfoliated and sunscreened cheeks into my almond-milk flat white. What the thoroughly delightful and she really is a delight, according to the crew who were on shoot with her Sarah Kohan, aka Moonstruck Traveller, has taught me, though, is this: no train, no bloody gain... And I kinda love her for it. In an Instagram world that is filled with seriously hot babes posting I woke up like this selfies sipping on unicorn smoothies, while telling the world that their favourite food is pizza; it is refreshing to stumble across someone as genetically blessed as Sarah, who admits just how much hard work it is being super-fit and foxy... All the time. She confessed to us that in preparation for her Women s Health cover shoot, she upped her regular Pilates and cardio sweat seshes to full fat-melting mornings of boot camp, spinning and, yes, more Pilates... Bless her for reminding me that I can t just axe the refined sugar from my gin and tonic and hope to have a bum like hers. That said, if every body is a beach body and, obvs, it is then every bum is a beach bum... And we ve got everything you might need packed in this tight tuchas of an issue to help you achieve this mythical status... Starting with swimwear to either cover or reveal, sun care so you don t burn or peel (I am rhyming now and I apologise) and leg workouts that ll butt-kick or scene-steal... Having spent most of my life living in a landlocked city (being close to the Valley Of Waves and Hartbeespoort Dam apparently doesn t count), I cannot overstate how much I love a beachy summer, so my butt is going to be out there doing its own sweet thing, whether I ve squeezed in all the squats or not. I m taking great solace in the fact that the 80s one-piece, low-backed, high-cut cossie is the hottest item to have in your beach bag this summer. Why? Because everybody and I do mean errrr body looks good in this style and it s just as easy to throw on a kaftan or pull on a pair of denim shorts and not feel like your nipple is going to fall into your pineapplejuice cocktail either. So, I say, own it! See you waterside...
