Sexy Summer Bucket List: 10 Flirty Things to Try Before Labor Day

Sun’s out, buns out… and not just the ones at your neighborhood cookout. Summer is prime time for turning up the heat — in your bedroom, your bathroom, or wherever inspiration strikes. Whether you’re partnered, single, or delightfully “it’s complicated,” this playful bucket list is all about adding a little spice to your summer. Because who says your hot girl summer can’t come with a side of giggles and a splash of sensuality?

Here are 10 flirty things to try before Labor Day — no passport or permission slip required:

1. Skinny Dip (or Tub Dip) at Night
You don’t need a pool to feel free. A candlelit bath with bubbles, music, and a glass of something sparkly totally counts — especially if you bring your waterproof toy along for the float.

2. Have a Makeout Session Like You’re 17 Again
No pressure. Just kissing. No phones. No agenda. Just lips, hands, and a whole lot of teasing.

3. Send a Flirty Text That Makes You Blush
Not a whole sext — just a preview. Something like: “Thinking about last night… and maybe later.” Bonus points if they can’t stop smiling in public.

4. Try a New Toy — Just for You
Ever looked at a toy and thought, “I’m not sure that’s for me?” Well, this summer, be bold. Explore something you’ve never tried — a new shape, sensation, or style.
Need help choosing? I’ve got you.

5. Dance in Your Underwear to a Ridiculously Good Song
Your living room. No one watching. Zero shame. It’s your private concert. Add lace or silk if you’re feeling fancy.

6. Take a Sunset Walk — and Leave the Bra at Home
There’s something incredibly freeing about not wearing a bra. Try it with a breezy dress, some confidence, and that “I’m doing this for me” attitude.

7. Plan a Spontaneous Date Night In
Who says date nights need a reservation? Light a massage candle, order takeout, and pull out your favorite game (or toy) for two.

8. Buy Yourself Something That Makes You Feel Irresistible
Lingerie, lube, or that pheromone perfume everyone keeps asking about. You deserve the good stuff — no special occasion required.

9. Read Something Steamy on the Beach
Yes, you can blush behind your sunglasses. Pack a spicy book, sip your iced coffee, and enjoy the waves with a side of smut.

10. Start Saying “Yes” to Pleasure Without Apology
Whether it’s five minutes with your favorite toy or a whole weekend escape — pleasure isn’t a reward. It’s a right.
