The Ben Weller Body and Soul photoshoot makes it look oh-so-chic to go surfing during the winter.

While the waters may be freezing cold and the relentless wind is whipping the models' hair in their faces, Georgina Bevan and Stephanie Hall somehow still look glamorous as they venture onto the beach with their surfboards. The shoot shows off surfer culture and style with pink-tinged hair that is worn loose and wavy, and west suits that seductively contour to the body. While mostly earth-toned, the editorial features pops of vibrant color, including a neon pink hoodie as well as bright red pants.

The Ben Weller Body and Soul photoshoot puts you in the mood for riding some waves.
