Megan Thee Stallion Casually Debuted Her New Swim Line on "Love Island USA"

Although we're still processing the "dump" from episode 20 of "Love Island USA" Season 7, Megan Thee Stallion's episode still has us obsessed. Given the show's allure and many steamy moments, it was only right that the "Mamushi" rapper made a guest appearance. During her cameo, the star hosted a three-part challenge, which consisted of a twerking competition, a limbo round, and a puzzle race, which culminated in two new bombshells joining the show. Of course, she wore an ensemble that was sultry enough to match the night's mischief: a metallic gold two-piece bikini with matching, strappy-heeled sandals and jewelry. But let's be clear: it's far from your average bikini; it's from her very own Walmart swimwear line.

The "Sweetest Pie" artist recently launched her Hot Girl Summer collection with the popular retailer, featuring 18 size-inclusive styles, including her look from the show: the Dipped in Gold Bikini Top ($18) and the Dipped in Gold Bikini Bottom ($16). Megan also caught up with the women islanders before the challenge in their quarters for some serious girl talk, and they all slipped into pieces from the singer's line. Iris Kendall and Cierra Ortega wore the Dipped in Gold One Piece ($28); Hannah Fields and Huda Mustafa rocked the now-sold-out Hot Girl Summer One Piece; and Amaya Espinal and Chelley Bissainthe donned the Chicas Fringe Bikini Top ($18) and its matching bottom, which is also sold out. Meanwhile, Olandria Carthen stood out in the Mamushi One-Piece Swimsuit ($28).


Megan's new drop is in keeping with a recent trend: recession core. Celebrities embracing (or creating) more affordable products for consumers is nothing new, but the concept is especially referential in today's economic climate. Yet, Megan has mixed budget-friendly picks with high-end items in her outfits on many occasions from brands such as Amazon and I.AM.GIA.

Whether you're a committed "Love Island USA" fan (like us) or shopping for your next tropical getaway on a budget, any of these picks from Megan's line will surely fit the bill. After all, it is a hot girl summer.

Candice Huffine: "Size Does Not Equal Health, and Weight Does Not Equal Worth"

Image Source: Luvlette Born in Washington DC and raised in a Maryland suburb, Candice Huffine did a little bit of everything when she was growing up, from being captain of the cheerleading squad to taking her turn as a pageant queen. "It was 'typical' in a Hallmark movie kind of way, I guess," Huffine tells POPSUGAR. "These details are important to mention because they did influence my life path. I willingly put myself on a stage at every turn - and not always kind ones - to do the things I loved or to follow a dream I had." Huffine, 39, signed her first modeling contract in 2000. She was "determined" to be a model, despite the fashion industry being notoriously discriminatory toward plus-size people. Knowing the odds were stacked against her propelled Huffine even further toward realizing her dream. "When I received a contract as a plus-size model, it unlocked a new mission in me: to not pursue modeling just for myself, but to push har...
