In the latter months of 2025, Olivia Dunne set down roots in Jupiter, Fla. Fast forward to the first month of 2026, and she showed her 5.3 million Instagram followers just how she has adapted to the Sunshine State.

Dunne’s coastal carousel

In an 11-image carousel, which Dunne captioned, "Jup life 🐶," the three-time SI Swimsuit model showcased a slew of sunshine-filled frames. In them, Dunne posed with her pup, Roux, and shared snaps with her boyfriend, Paul Skenes, while also displaying a plethora of swimwear looks.

In the first frames of the carousel, which Dunne debuted on Sunday, Jan. 18, the retired NCAA gymnast modeled a strapless, striped bikini set. If you’re a longtime SI Swimsuit reader, then you are more than aware how stripes have become a seaside styling staple in the fold—worn by brand legend Kate Upton on the front page of the 2024 SI Swimsuit Issue and by Dunne herself, who donned a zebra striped suit from Reina Olga on the cover of SI Swimsuit 2025.

So, today, we’re checking out more SI Swimsuit images to fuel your striped swimwear mood board if you’re looking to channel the style youself.
