CONSIDERING how we're still in the depths of winter, our bikini collection is pretty much the last thing on our minds right now.

But whenever we open Instagram, there seems to be yet another celeb soaking up the sun in some far-flung location.

And while we might not be able to copy their exact holiday, there is something we can recreate in our own lives: their collection of skimpy string bikinis.

That's right, everyone from Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner to Emily Ratajkowski and Francesca Farago have been spotted rocking this trend.

And let's just say, it's not exactly the most practical choice of swimwear.

That said, it's almost guaranteed to take your Instagram "like" count into double figures.

Wanting to give it a go yourself? You can make like Kourtney Kardashian and turn a string bikini top upside down to really amp up the cleavage.

Or take a leaf out of Emily's book and wrap the excess string around your torso - just be wary of awkward tan lines.

However, you don't necessarily need to push any fashion boundaries to give a nod to this trend.

Looking like a straight-up 90s supermodel, Love Island's Maura Higgins kept it simple in a green string two-piece as she kicked back on a sunlounger.

And we thought we were chilly...
