TANGLES AND COLOR

(Bandeau top: homemade (: , Bikini bottom: BoomBoom Bikini, Necklaces: Momi Made by Michele Leong, Shark Tooth Bracelet: Dezso by Sara Beltran, Turquoise Bracelets: gifted)

I’m beach side for a week and expect to wear a bikini and tangled, salty hair for most of it. I really wish I could just live in a bikini and feel like this all the time. It feels so good to pretend I don’t have to work or have a real life. It would probably feel even better if it were actually true! Haha.

So, believe it or not I actually made that bandeau a few years ago. Surprise, surprise. I used to actually sew at one time and put my hard earned degree to work! It’ll be my thread of choice to get rid of those tan lines I have had for years and years. I am finally making an attempted to rid of them. And that Boom Boom is helping with my behind too!

I’m also obsessed with my toothy necklaces from my dearest Korean jeweler Michele Leong (Momi Made.) I have always been her biggest fan. Fortunately for me she is also a close friend so I am constantly stealing her necklaces and bracelets when she’s not looking. It’s really nice when you have amazingly talented friends and force freebies from their hands into your closet. (: I am a sucker for pops of color. And the perfect way to do that is with jewelry!

So for now I’ll be in tangles and color all week long.

THE BOTTOM LINE


(Photos by: she; Bikini Bottom: Tori Praver Swimwear)

A couple of things I’ve realized within the last couple of days:

1. I don’t know how to “model”.. I don’t like to “model”.. so I laugh in all my photos.

2. I’m obsessed with bottoms. Any kind of bottoms.

I actually don’t mean to be obsessed with bottoms. I really need new tops. My shirt/blouse/t-shirt wardrobe has been eaten alive by cheeky little bugs on a vengeance. But I somehow always find bottoms. I found these Tori Praver Swimwear bottoms on sale and had to get them. Floral, feminine, and ruched. Perfecto beach lounging bikini bottom. I actually don’t own any string bikini’s because I thought my hips gushed out of them. But these somehow work. Not complaining.

In that respect, I don’t think we should ever limit ourselves in fashion, style, clothing, etc. etc. etc. Actually, don’t limit yourself in anything. But that’s a whole another ball of butter.

The bottom line is.. I’m loving these bikini bottoms!

MIKOH | BIKINI MADNESS

Got a chance to meet the lovely Kalani from Mikoh Swimwear and was surprised when I got to get my nylon/spandex fix on!!  Oh you know, just spending the money that I should be spending on Christmas presents. But it was so worth it. That girl was loaded with swimsuits it was all incredibly over-stimulating! I nearly had a heart attack.

Mikoh is pretty amazing. The fit is so flattering and comfortable. I wish I could have got every style in my size!! I’m especially obsessed with the little high-waisted number. That bad boy is going to go from beach to fashion until it is falling apart. I can’t wait to catch some waves during the day and keep it on into the night under a sheer skirt!!!

So I’ve got to say.. I’m pretty mad about Mikoh!!
