The Elle Netherlands June 2014 issue featured freckle-faced model Camilla Christensen frolicking along the warm waters of a tropical beach dressed up in bright bathing suits.
Christensen starred in a steamy bathing suit shoot that embraced high-waisted bottoms and sheer tops over traditional triangle bikinis. Each of the bikinis Christensen wore was jewel-toned with interesting details. Two standout suits were an emerald bikini with beautiful fringe detailing along the side and a T-shirt with a bikini top print.
Christensen rocked several glamorous scarf headpieces in her hair. The technicolor and Renaissance-inspired print of the silk scarves blowing in the wind gave the shoot a vintage feel. One look at these images and you’ll instantly wish you could transport yourself somewhere warm and tropical.
