SHE appeared on Love Island back in 2020 in a bid to find love.
And Shaughna Phillips has certainly kept herself busy since then – rekindling her relationship with ex Billy Webb and the pair having daughter Lucia together.
But when she tried a cut-out cossie on “for bants”, she joked she looked like a “rolled-up ham”[/caption]
But her mum was so determined that Shaughna shouldn’t forget her time in the villa that she kept a suitcase of her daughter’s clothes from then.
So when the 30-year-old found the case, she couldn’t resist trying on some of the outfits for old times’ sake.
“The other day I discovered a suitcase my mum had essentially hidden, filled with clothes from the Love Island villa,” Shaughna began the video on her Instagram page.
“Some I’d worn, some I haven’t worn and they’ve still got tags.
“I mean, firstly, I can’t believe some of these things I actually kept, because I thought they was nice!
“Like screaming, shaking, throwing up.”
Shaughna then put the huge bag, into which she’d emptied the contents of the case, onto the floor, and closed her eyes as she did a mystery rummage.
The first thing she pulled out of the case was a gold strapless swimsuit, as she exclaimed: “What’s this? No, what is this?
“I don’t think I’m gonna try this on!”
She then said she was going to “try it on for banter”, but was unconvinced when she modelled the one-piece.
“Okay, this actually might get removed for nudity,” she sighed.
“I look like, I can’t breathe. I look like one of those, is it like a pork?
“A pork you get in a supermarket?
“It’s a no from me!”
“Pork from supermarket = gammon,” one person commented on the Reel.
To which Shaughna replied: “That’s the one!”
How to find a flattering bikini for any body type
According to Boux Avenue the best swimwear for pears shapes is a high-cut style to add length to your legs or a bold high-leg swimsuit
For those with a straight body type, the underwear brand suggests a ruched swimwear option to create shape, and emphasise your legs.
For hourglass curves, the brand suggests a strappy swimwear style, or triangle bikini.
For apple body shapes an underwired bikini is best to work with your natural volume and a crinkle high waist bikini brief.
For round body shapes supportive cups are a must and a high-cut leg will add poise to your swimwear body pose.
The next item Shaughna pulled out was a frilly pink minidress, as she exclaimed: “Oh, for f**k’s sake!
But when she got it on, she insisted: “Yeah, I don’t hate it. I don’t hate it.”
Pulling down the sleeves of the dress, she said: “Does that make it any better?
“No, I like it.
“I’m sorry. I like it!”
In the caption of the Reel, Shaughna wrote: “If you didn’t see my stories the other day, I came across an unpacked suitcase from Love Island.
“I thought I’d try it on for the bants, and although I have no idea what my fashion sense is these days, I’m glad it’s evolved from this!”
Shaughna also urged fans to stop asking her about how she’s recently lost so much weight, as she promised that her “step by step” guide will be “worth” waiting for.
“Also for the odd few, please remember I’m still a person,” she concluded.
“The way I’m spoken to and about in my comments and in my DMs sometimes is genuinely shocking.
“And if I can kindly ask you to maybe just talk about me in your group chats instead of where I can actually see it that would be great lol!”
But when she got used to seeing herself in the flirty number, she said she actually liked it[/caption]
