The Fourth has come and gone, which means we're officially in the swing of beach season now. While seaside style seems simple enough, the potential for fails still runs very high. In your time of uncertainty look to—who else—Lord Disick, the steeziest of them all in every arena, for your cues. Sixty percent of this dude's days are spent in the sand with his Kardashian clan, so he knows a thing or two about maintaining the stunt on the beach. Peep the gallery for lessons on How to Stunt This Summer According to Lord Disick's Beach Style.

With Kourtney
Lord tip: Fuck worrying about the heavy man-thigh cameo that short trunks bring with them. Pairing them with a polo shirt, which skirts the line between DGAF casual and slightly more respectable territory will create a sophisticated throwback look to when American style icons like Steve McQueen and Paul Newman could stunt in the sand alongside European kings and queens. The next step once you nail this look is to find out what secret countries only lords like Scottie know about and pair up with a bae that matches your levels.
Eyepatch
Lord tip: Incorporate loud trunks into an otherwise muted alphet for maximum, textbook stuntage. Everything about this fit right here is too next. The swim trunks look like your brain on acid. And the swashbuckling accessory proves how little you should care when it comes to looking ridiculous on the beach. This guy knighted himself and is still looking for new titles to come up on. Admiral Disick's lesson here: don't be afraid to experiment with wild out there looks.
Print trunks
Lord tip: Prints work for a prince, lord, king, and/or peasant. There are pretty much two routes to take with dope beach style: muted and clean, or turnt up to 11. A bold pair of printed swim trunks with a nautical theme will always get attention on the beach, which is one of the few scenarios when being bold as fuck is almost always acceptable.
With Khloé
Lord tip: For your non-swim/non-tan portion of beach day, the button-down is sometimes a better look with trunks than tanks or tees. And since real Gs carry the fam's beach gear and look fresh while doing it, bringing a lightweight button-down with sleeves rolled-up like you could give a shit is a great way to stand out from dudes wearing Lax pinnies and tees from their corporate office bonding day.
With Mason
Lord tip: Orange is as risky as it gets but if there's any place it can be pulled off with minimal damage, it's the beach. Summer's all about the brightest colors, but your swagger has to be on point if you're going to be as bold as Disick. Take cues from the ill First Family pose while fearlessly flourishing in the bright colors most basic-dressing guys would steer clear of, while telling his son, "This will one day be yours."
Entourage
Lord tip: Full-on coke boy steez might have been diluted by fuccbois trying to get their likes up on Tumblr, but the summer is when this move remains a strong one. Plus, when your crew is chock full of lame American Apparel V-necks, you're only going to stand out more as the most stylish guy in the clique. Bonus points if you make it to Diddy's White Party, as Prescott surely did.
Cheetah shoes
Lord tip: There's a simple solution to the endless sneakers vs. swagless sandals beach footwear debate, one that was discovered by Cam'ron: loafers. Dudes whine about the limits of men's summer style but here's LD schooling you with the homerun tee-and-shorts combo and completing the cypher with an A1 style risk in those cheetah print kickers. The trunks and T-shirt combo is pretty classic and looks dope on its own, but throw in a true style risk with the confidence to pull it off and you have yourself a masterful look.
Disicks
Lord tip: Coordinating the alphet isn't always an L. Even though young lords are born into royalty, it doesn't hurt to start them out early down a path of dope style. Draping the offspring out in similar-but-not-identical-gear will show the world that the fam already possesses unfuckwithable father-son flourishing skills. Who says dad style has to always be lame?
Personalized Trunks
Lord tip: Reserving monograms for shirt cuffs and the inside of jacket labels all subtle-like is meek. Customizing options are plentiful these days. We're not saying you should put your name on every article like you're going off to camp, but having a secret weapon that is a true 1 of 1 will let you flaunt your name/title/set wherever you please.
Speedboat
Lord tip: Keep a dope lightweight windbreaker handy to minimize splash damage on those days when the urge to do donuts in the open sea strikes, or, in a peasant's case, when a sun shower rolls through. Sure, those trunks look pretty fly, but honestly, we're just focused on how amazing this shot is. Dude looks like he's parting the seas right here. If you're going to do epic shit this summer (which you should) make sure the 'fit is at least on point enough to not distract from the incredible things you and your crew get up to.
