Kendall Jenner's naked bikini look is metallic micro bottoms and no top
It's official. 2025 is the year of naked swimwear.
So far, we've had Hailey Bieber frolicking on a yacht in a barely-there red and white bikini, Kylie Jenner stunning in a plunging gold two-piece, and EmRata loving life in a teeny neon number.
The latest celeb to take on the trend, you ask? None other than Kylie's older sis, Kendall. For those of you who are chronically online, you'll know the Jenner siblings are currently soaking up the sun somewhere tropical. And knowing the Kar-Jenners like we do, whenever they're on vacay, it means our feeds are littered with bikini content.
Taking to her grid, Kenny dropped the most *unreal* swimwear snaps while posing in the crystal clear ocean. Whether due to the scorching heat or to serve her own iconic naked look (we're guessing the latter), Kendall ditched a bikini top in favour of a pair of micro metallic blue bottoms. Tan lines? Never heard of her.
Scroll through the carousel, and she does later add full bikini pics: a tiny ruched triangle bra with a halter neck and backless element. The extra photos also show the seamless bikini bottoms in all their glory, complete with blue string tied just below each hip.
Because Kendall was literally in the sea, she also inadvertently channelled the wet look. Her signature jet black locks were slicked back, a style her older sib Kim has been known to love in the past.
Our verdict? *Searches for a bikini dupe immediately just in time for summer*

Review: Erewhon, a taste of L.A.'s celebrity grocery scene
Imagine this: You are in your late teens/early 20s, navigating through new adulthood, and grocery shopping has been just about the last thing on your mind. After scrolling on Pinterest for recipes and looking at your overdue grocery list, you drag yourself to go to the grocery store and pick up your basic items: an assortment of vegetables, fruits, milk, proteins, eggs, snacks, and perhaps a quick drink for the sum of about $30-$45. Trader Joe's, Ralphs, and Stater Bros. might get the groceries you need for the week at a price you wouldn't mind paying. However, the trendy and macrobiotic grocery store next door promises celebrity-endorsed collagen-packed smoothies, hyper-oxygenated water, and supplements to turn you into the next supermodel. But here's the catch: it will cost you 20x more, all in the name of celebrity diets and optimized health. Erewhon has become a trend, a lifestyle, and a culture that the masses want to replace their average grocery store with. Grass-fed wagyu sliders and a $98 extra-virgin olive oil have replaced necessities and last-minute grocery store snacks. Their famous $20 celebrity-collaboration smoothies and plethora of foods for every occasion have revolutionized Erewhon as a grocery store for members of the highest tax bracket and a hot spot of LA's social scene. As a Los Angeles native and plant-based eater, Erewhon has always been on my bucket list. Their food spans all cuisines and caters to every dietary restriction. Having seen the controversy Erewhon has created, I decided to put its food to the test. As I walked in, I was greeted with their $200 tote bags and $30 flowers. How cute! I ordered four items: the Hailey Bieber strawberry smoothie, the gluten-free mac n cheese, buffalo cauliflower, and the organic Asian tofu sticks from their hot bar. My portions were smaller, and since they determined the price of food by the pound, while still expensive, I thought it would be no more than $40. I was wrong. The grand total of a singular plate and smoothie turned out to be $80. I was only left with $5 in my bank account, but I had hoped its collagen-infused drinks and 100% organic foods would make me feel and look like LA's best. While I did feel guilty, I reminded myself this was solely for research purposes … wink wink. First up on the list was Hailey Bieber's smoothie that made every teenage girl suddenly go feral for strawberries and coconut cream (me included). I took my first sip, and although I didn't want to admit it, it was worth every penny of the $20 spent. I would like to say the Strawberry Surfrider from Jamba Juice is a good alternative, but I would be lying to you. This drink was everything I needed. Creamy, sweet, thick, and the best part was I felt good about drinking it. Perhaps it was because every supplement known to man was packed into a 20-ounce cup. The harmonious blend of strawberries and cream hit my taste buds the right way. I was in love. Well done, Hailey. (Photo by Kavya Thakrar) After downing my smoothie, I moved on to the mac n cheese from my hot plate; it looked promising. It had a thick crust on the top and was still piping hot. I took my first bite, and although I had high expectations, I was considerably disappointed. That singular bite was $5 wasted. It was bland, and let's just say I would prefer Kraft over this any day. My final verdict: pasta is better with gluten. Before trying the buffalo cauliflower, I tried to get every last drop of my smoothie to justify the financial damage done. The cauliflower was home to the tiniest section of my hot bar container, with about four pieces. However, before I knew it, those four pieces were gone. Buffalo cauliflower is a generic menu item, an All-American appetizer if you will. While this cauliflower didn't necessarily stand out from the other cauliflower dishes I have tried (and being plant-based, it's a lot), it was still incredibly delicious. The spicy buffalo coating was paired incredibly well with the crispy bite of the cauliflower. Needless to say, I can understand why it's a fan favorite, and I would've enjoyed a few more pieces. After trying the viral items, I moved on to the organic Asian tofu sticks. I consider myself a tofu connoisseur; however, I've never seen a tofu like this before. I was a little apprehensive about trying these, as it was a last-minute purchase, and I wasn't sure if $20 could justify three cold tofu sticks relished in sauce. But when I took my first bite, my life changed forever. The tofu was the cherry on top and somewhat justified the price. It was a blend of your signature Asian flavors paired with the interesting texture of firm tofu. If you like tofu, you know it's either a hit or miss. When going to most restaurants, tofu is slapped on the menu so the franchise can be regarded as 'plant-based friendly.' Those were the expectations I had for Erewhon, but it more than surpassed them. The deep blend of flavors from the rich marinade kept me wanting more, and by the time the tofu itself was down, I was savoring every last bit of the sauce. (Photo by Kavya Thakrar) Did I like Erewhon? Could I say I enjoyed the $80 meal I was hesitant about trying before? That's a trick question…the answer is both yes and no. All in all, Erewhon has exceeded the norms of what a grocery store should be, including its high quality items, outrageous prices, and celebrity sightings. Was it worth the hype? Yes. Worth financial ruin to be my go-to grocery store? Probably not. Still, if you're ever in LA and want to taste what your favorite influencers and celebrities love to indulge in, and perhaps even a chance to see them, Erewhon is the place for you. Start adding funds to your piggy bank and see if it's worth the global hype. Related

Hailey Bieber on Building Rhode into a Billion-Dollar Beauty Brand
Listen to and follow the BoF Podcast: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Overcast Background: When Hailey Bieber launched her beauty and skincare brand Rhode in 2022, it quickly built a loyal customer base and achieved rapid commercial success. By early 2025, Rhode had generated $212 million in annual sales and, in May, was acquired by E.l.f. Beauty in a landmark $1 billion deal. 'Rhode is not just about the product; it's the whole entire world of Rhode. I want people to feel something when they get the products. When they use it, I want them to feel that they are a part of something,' Bieber shared this week at The Business of Beauty Global Forum 2025 in Napa Valley, California. 'I really do see us being a legacy brand. Rhode is going to go down as one of the greats.' In her first public appearance since the acquisition, Hailey spoke with The Business of Beauty's executive editor Priya Rao about launching her brand, how the deal with E.l.f. transpired, and her vision for the future of Rhode. The author has shared a YouTube video. You will need to accept and consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies by our third-party partners (including: YouTube, Instagram or Twitter), in order to view embedded content in this article and others you may visit in future. Key Insights: Rhode is intentionally positioned as more than a skincare brand. 'It's not just about the product, it's the whole entire world of Rhode,' Bieber said. She envisions the company evolving into a lifestyle brand with editorial flair and cultural relevance beyond just beauty. In building Rhode, Bieber looked past traditional beauty incubators and industry insiders and instead focused on building a close-knit team with a fresh perspective. 'I knew I wanted to put my own money into it. I knew I always wanted to be the majority owner,' she said. The result is a brand that feels 'super curated and tight' — an intentional strategy to maintain clarity and control. The $1 billion sale to E.l.f. Beauty was not a quick decision. Bieber was deliberate about finding a partner that respected Rhode's DNA. 'Rhode is like my baby; I'm so precious about it. The idea of ever even considering [a sale] was a very big deal to me,' she said. Bieber underscored the importance of personal connection and integrity in building a brand that resonates. 'I am Rhode and Rhode is me,' she said, explaining that the brand's tone, aesthetic and communication all reflect her own sensibilities. 'That's why I always say, Rhode is my world. It doesn't feel like a job to me.' Bieber said she is building Rhode for the long haul, something that endures, rooted in authenticity and longevity rather than trend-chasing. 'I really do see us being a legacy brand,' Bieber said. 'Rhode's going to go down as one of the greats.' Additional Resources:

Kendall Jenner wears super strappy tiny espresso V-back bikini
It's that time again: Everyone Has a Pool Except You O'Clock, where celebrities truly will not stop making us jealous with their summer aesthetics. Enter Kendall Jenner, who just dropped a series of bikini pics on what looks to be a gorgeous holiday. And while what I really want is this view, I'll settle for her bikini, which is conveniently still available to shop online! According to fan accounts, Kendall's wearing the Tropic of C universo bralette and luna bottom in espresso. Need/want. This is hardly Kenny's debut bikini post this year. She kicked off the Gram's swimwear content all the way back in March when she ditched her top to pose in just a pair of teeny tiny thong bikini bottoms. Check out the pics here. She also gave an insight into her and Kylie's family vacay last month: And shared this gorge black and white shot of herself, yet again perched on a sun lounger: Indeed, the supermodel is no stranger to a micro bikini, regularly taking to Instagram to showcase her teeny tiny 'kini collection. Be it a butter yellow thongkini: A classic string triangle style in a bright red hue to coordinate with her cap. Sun safety is important after all, kids! Or channelling the dolce vita (even though she was actually in Mallorca...) in a chic AF headscarf: We're definitely not jealous that we're not sat on a beach right now. Though maybe this weekend's heat wave will finally allow us to pull on our own bikinis, if only to wear to the local park.
