Top: Kibinis by Lee Lee (Bottoms: Victoria's Secret) Getting Kibini Kissed was a great experience from start to finish. A Kibini is a custom-made swimsuit designed for you by a small business in Texas. No two Kibinis are alike; my dream come true and one of the reasons I started making my friends and I personal, unique bikinis. To get Kibini Kissed: I got to pick out the design I wanted, the color I wanted, the fabric styles I like and give my exact bra size for a perfect fit. I even provided specifics about me, like how I am "super girlie" and would love light pink with lace. The Kibini team then started shopping for my fabric and putting it all together. They focus on bikini tops since that is what most women are concerned about and they will make it to fit your needs. You can pair your custom top with bottoms you have or they will even shop for some matching bottoms for you! I like wearing my beautiful, pink lace off-the-shoulder bikini top with white bottom...

 Do you love the water, sports and adrenaline? If so, you are an "aqua addict" just like me. Think of all the great things you can do in and around the water (jet skiing, surfing, wake boarding, swimming, fishing, boating, paddle boarding, snorkeling, etc.) Aqua Addict is a new brand in which you can show your love and addiction to the water. It was created by two individuals that enjoy water sports in Philadelphia. They have shirts and tank tops for both men and women. Their merchandise is perfect for any age at a fairly decent price. My cute and comfy raspberry tank top came with a very nice letter; it made me feel special and showed Aqua Addict's passion for working hard. You can check out the link or follow on Instagram. I like their beautiful photos and positive inspiration. I'm all about helping small businesses. When you purchase from them, an actual person does a happy dance!  Shop Aqua Addict merchandise (click here)

Versakini They say a UPS truck is like an ice cream truck for adults. That's how I felt when my Versa-box arrived. Inside was a gorgeous Versakini, a matching bag, a pink bracelet and a card stating "You can do so many things, now your bikini can too!" Fantastic swimwear inspiration! Versakinis can be worn in so many ways, limited only by your imagination. When my box arrived, I had to stop everything and start trying it out for myself. It can be flipped over, it's reversible and it has special loops to change it up. The wonderful women at Versakini provide directions for options to wear the Goddess top. There are at least 30 ways to wear it! It's versatile and fun no matter what you do; whether you are laying out, playing beach volleyball or taking a boat ride. I also guarantee if you run into someone wearing the same bikini, it won't look the same. Mix and match the bottoms for additional looks, too. You can even transform your bikini into a one-pie...

  4-in-1 is so much fun! When shopping for a new swimsuit, look for reversible swimwear so that you can wear it four ways. This way you feel like you are getting your money's worth and you aren't always wearing the same suit. I have a friend who changed hers throughout the day for fun and everyone loved it. The reversible bikini in this photo is from Eve7 Swimwear. It's uniquely made in California and they have more cute reversible suits on their website. Reversible swimsuits are trending right now so you should have no problem finding yours. Remember when you are looking at the price that you technically can divide the amount by 4 and YOU are totally worth it anyway. If you have or get a reversible bikini, leave a comment so, that others will know where to look.

FOX Having lived in Florida my whole life, I can honestly say that I'm comfortable with myself enough to wear a bikini on the daily. Sadly, having "Social Media" for only 6 months has made me second guess myself. This was the easiest picture I ever took because I did not care about my face, stomach or legs. I still thought, "Maybe I should take another photo because my hands look weird." You probably just looked and thought, "Ya, they do." It's okay because it's what is on the inside that counts. I can only imagine how other women are feeling. If you ever feel insecure- just know that I do too, you are not alone and it is not your fault. Society is making many people feel like looks are what matters; especially in media, movies and magazines. Appearances are just appearances. We should be supporting good people and good companies regardless. We have to remember that imperfection is beauty and how we live is what matters. The true way to f...
