Swimwear Inspiration

Dotti Cover-Up (with Tiffany Sunglasses) After a long day spreading our wings at sea, we can be prepared to pull the boat up to a dock or restaurant in a Dotti cover-up. It's nice to have a cover-up that will make you feel beautiful after being out in the sun all day and Dotti does just that with it's elegant designs. Pictured here is one that makes me feel like an angel from the 2018 Missy collection. White is classy, simple and pure. Plus, it easily matches any swimsuit. The pretty lace detail of the top and design on the end of the sleeves caught my eye. It's the type of cover-up I can also wear as a dress. It's a little see-through due to the fabric (which is great to show a little of my swimsuit) but if I decide to wear it shopping or to work, I can put a tank top and leggings under it. It also slides right over your head for a quick and easy way to get yourself covered before going anywhere. I really enjoy dresses with long-sleeves so, wearing this new co...

Petflair Swimsuit & Photography by Lety Remior When one of my friends told me he had heard about a company that let's you put a picture of your dog on your swimsuit (and knew it would be right up my alley of course), I went straight to my lap top and began searching for it. It didn't take long as the crowd-funding buzz had started to make it's way around the internet. I found the website and had a look for myself. This fabulous company is from Australia and called Petflair. Am I the only one who goes straight to the "about us" section or do you do that too? It helped me to see that this was a company I wanted to support because not only is it a great story with a unique idea but Petflair donates 25% of it's profits to Pound Paws (a charity for abandoned pets.) I decided I needed to find out more about the making of swimsuits with our pets. These babies are $99, which is reasonable, especially for a customized suit with your dog! However, ...

    Barebeach Recycle your plastic bottles so that Barebeach can keep making bikinis! It's probably hard to believe but the cute Barebeach swimsuit I am wearing is made of plastic bottles. The soft, high-quality, fabric is a combination of 82% recycled polyester and 18% spandex made by a company called Repreve. I was proud to wear this earth friendly bikini on a day at the beach with my family. Mostly, I was excited to share with others about how it's made. Barebeach Swimwear has great style and coverage as well. You can get different colors/prints and this strappy triangle top is a stylish trend that is getting popular. There is also a sporty style top which is great for watersports and even more coverage. Be sure to check the provided size chart because I went down one size and it fit me better. Mother Nature is crying for help and we can all do our part. Plastic is destroying our waterways so we might as well turn it into something good. I like that there is a sp...

In a world full of seagulls and pigeons, I say "Be a Flamingo!" My newest swimsuit from Sauipe Swimwear does just that. Not only is it unique but, it is pink- my favorite color. When my Sauipe swimsuit arrived I immediately knew it was different from the others. The design is nothing like I've ever seen. I've mostly only had "sporty" high-neck tops. It was refreshing to see and wear a "fancy" high-neck. It is adjustable around the neck so, I was able to loosen it for fit and tanning time. There is a gold clasp on the back that adds simple beauty that will not rust. The bottoms are medium coverage in the back with a unique twist on each side. It is called the Fernande Terracotta. The fabric is so soft and elegant. It is made in Brazil of 87% polyamide and 13% spandex. You may enjoy wearing one of the classy but sexy one-pieces, high waist bottoms or the many styles of tops with more coverage than most. When you own a swimsuit like this it will fe...

Sunshine State Goods I was feeling very lucky to live in Florida this past St. Patrick's Day. The weather was beautiful! We spent the day surrounded by palm trees, ocean breeze, salty air, sunshine and amazing beach views. It was 78 degrees and the perfect day to show off my new tank top from Sunshine State Goods. I met the owner of Sunshine State Goods at the Orlando Surf Expo and she was one of the coolest Floridians I've ever met. She had me sit down on a couch and drink mimosas with her. That's the way we work and the fresh squeezed orange juice is always flowing where we live. Like her, I love our state and all it has to offer. Her clothing and hat line basically say it all! As it says on the website, it is more than just a brand...it's a state of mind. Florida life is the best and we are truly lucky to live here. She started Sunshine State Goods to share the sunshine with us all. When you love something you naturally take care of it and Sunshine State Goo...

Versakini Swimsuit/Native Sunglasses/Shopwish Necklace/4Ocean Bracelet/FLW Photos Here's how I literally turned heads and stopped conversations. I got off of work and headed straight to Chases on the Beach. I had on the newest reversible one-piece by Versakini, eye-catching sunglasses by Native Eyewear and a stunning necklace from my friend's new business Shopwish. I couldn't help but feel stylish and many people came up to me to ask me about my look. It always feels nice to receive compliments and get to talk to others about what I'm passionate about. The wonderful ladies of For the Love of Water, FLW Photos, met me there to capture these great pictures. Let us know if you are interested in getting product shots for your business. The one-piece is a plunging swimsuit from Versakini. Check out my other posts about Versakini, with versatile and stylish swimsuits. This brand was started on Shark Tank and I've really watched it grow over the past year. You ...

Tropical Maniac Would you like to be a tropical maniac? TM is the logo you may have been seeing on clothing and stickers that represents one of my favorite lifestyle brands, Tropical Maniac. We are crazy for the tropical life. We love the beach, saltwater and basically anything and everything that has to do with it. I had the pleasure of meeting up with the owners at the Orlando Surf Expo (photo above) and they are the coolest. They are great people with a great company. The "Tropical Maniac" shack is located in Matagorda, Texas. You can shop in person or online for beach gear, beach furniture, beach art and souvenirs. I like my shirts because the fabric is light-weight and they have creative sayings on them. The backs of my Tropical Maniac shirts say "Seize the Bay" and "It's all about that bays and treble." My hat is adjustable and just right for fishing or boating in the hot Florida sun. My awesome sister-in-law loves the tank I gave he...
