LOCKDOWN BOO BOO II

So the world is starting to open up (again) and holidays are gonna be selling like hot cakes; which means you want in on all the latest hot spots. In our last post; we talked about fantastic places to dream about and plan to visit when the plague is all over. In this post; we’re going to talk about fantastic places that you can actually visit as restrictions are easing; and holidays abroad are starting to become more and more accessible 😉

Lets get down to it, our top places to go frolicking around (in a bikini!) this summer 😛

1. Greece

Greece

At the time of writing, all travellers who have a certificate to prove they have either had the vaccine or have antibodies, or who can show a negative valid test are welcome into the country. And what a gorgeous country to get lost in this summer! From the crystal laguna blue seas of Super Paradise Beach (Mykonos) to the white sandy beaches of Lalaria (Skiathia) and the stunning milky white volcanic rocks set by Sarakiniko beach off the northern coast of Milos, there are just so many breath-taking places to up your game on the ‘gram this summer!

Why not check out some our most exotic  and exicitng swimsuits and beachwear that would look great  when you’re taking those snaps by the timeless emerald green waters of Greece!

2. Barbados

Our Planet is Screaming Bikini Cleanup Crew

Spread the Love

Experience, freedom, love, now

Our Planet is screaming

A food container, plastic bag, one plastic bottle; it may just be one of each item you take to the beach and leave behind. And you think ah well…; it’s just one right? Someone else will clean it up. Well, our planet is screaming, are you listening?

But if you multiply that by say 100 or maybe a 1000 depending how warm a day it is and how many people visit the beach, it’s extraordinarily overwhelming for such a delicate ecosystem such as the beach and the seashores to continue thriving and sustaining themselves. There aren’t enough people if at all there to clean all the rubbish you leave behind on these beaches. 

We often forget where land and sea life coexist, the activities of one affects the other and therefore one looks after the other, we truly do live in a circle that never ends. This is often lost on people, how much we are connected to one another and how the actions of one affect everyone everywhere. The sheer volume of pollution experienced day in and day out on beaches is in effect beyond criminal. 

The planet is dying for a change.

It’s nothing new; its nothing you’ve never heard before but just as much as we are a swimwear company and love sourcing and showcasing amazing beachwear, we also really care about the environment and the beaches we visit. Our core beliefs and values underline freedom, experience, love and compassion for all and that includes all wildlife. We believe all living things are to be treasured and shown the respect they rightfully deserve. 

We want you wonderful Bikini babes to be the angels of our beaches and in turn of our seas and oceans. When you’re out and about, enjoying yourselves this summer, remember that love and respect is what connects us all. That means it starts with one simple act:

Pick up your rubbish, pick up someone else’s rubbish it doesn’t matter, it’s a way of paying it forward, you will get back what you give. That’s a fact, others will follow and it will create a ripple effect and it’s as simple as that.

We also have something exciting we are working: we’ll be rolling out soon as part of our mantra as protectors of our beaches; The bikini angels of our seas and the guardians for our aquatic friends. We will directly be involved in our fight to protect our environment and we hope that you will join us.

Stay tuned, turned on as we drop the next post 😉

Swimwear trends 2021

swimwear trends 2021

SWIMWEAR TRENDS 2021

Oh there definitely feels like there is such a beach buzz in the air for something new and vibrant. We are so excited for the swimwear trends that are making their way in 2021! Picture animal prints galore, sexy cut-out ensembles, simple sophisticated triangle tops and much more – this requires some serious discussion here and that’s what we’re gonna do! First of all, omg you guys doesn’t anything swimwear related instantly lift you up and make you feel elevated, like the memories of times gone past with those endless summers and holidays abroad….oh I know, its killing me too…BUT summers around the bend and warm weather is making its beautiful debut soon so you gonna wanna watch this space honey! 

So let’s get to it, we’re gonna help you make better decisions this season and that’s why your swimwear collection is going to be fire! And if you’re like us, we can agree that you can never have too many swimsuits! From modern cuts and colours to versatile tops, scroll down to discover the must-have swimwear trends of 2021..

1. Keyhole CUTOUTS are in VOGUE

Goodbye side cut-outs, hello keyhole cut-outs. This subtle design detail will instantly elevate your look through its strategic placement on the body proving to be extremely flattering. We love a multipurpose wardrobe piece, so try pairing with a denim short to complete your look. 

2. Sexy, Sculpted & Underwire? Oh YES!

This season, update your underwire bra-top with a sculpted sexy little number. Similar to the flattering fit of the underwire, the sculpted underwire offers the same lift, but with a more dynamic look. And in our opinion, makes for a great Instagram moment. 

3. Asymmetrical Silhouettes – That’s HOT 😉

I have often claimed that I am not a one-piece kind of gal, but I have to admit–I was wrong. This season, body-hugging asymmetrical cuts are taking it to a whole new level. They not only accentuate the curves of the body but they also transform your boring swimsuit into a fresh new style.

4. All about the RETRO Feels BABY 

While retro-inspired silhouettes have dominated the swimwear trends the last several seasons, from square neck-lines to high-cut briefs, retro mood-boosting prints and color-combinations are being introduced this season.

5.WILD Thing 🐾

By now, we all know animal print is going absolutely nowhere—and we are perfectly okay with that. Freshen your animal print swimwear collection by opting for a more minimal iteration of your favourite prints.  

Bikini Beach Body Ready

BIKINI BEACH BODY READY

Bikini Beach Body Ready

Here a yummy smoothie recipe to get you there!

It´s time to get your Bikini Beach Body Ready! Oh it is so tough sometimes and options so limited when you’re trying to get lean and fit but it needn’t be! We have a scrumptious bikini ready smoothie that will make substituting a meal feel like a breeze ☺ On top of that it’s packed full of nourishing vitamins as well as having a mighty hand in replenishing your energy levels without the calories! Mmm now that’s what we likey!

While this drink provides plenty of fiber with the veggies and stuff to aid in your diet, it also contains avocado, coconut, and nuts to help with your skin. These are highly “good” fat, omega 3, and anti-oxidant to work with any blemish you might have while losing weight.

A tablespoon of honey would definitely make the drink taste better, or sweeter per se, but if you’re on a strict carb-free and sugar-free diet, you could substitute with one of those 0 calorie sweeteners. Try to use those natural ones which will benefit you more.

Another note is on the protein powder. Just make sure you pick the best one that fits your exercise routine, beware of those hidden carbs through artificial flavours and/or sweeteners.

Berries

Raspberries

All the colourful berries of summer please! Oh yes oh yes think strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, blueberries. In addition, all mega low in calories and high in water and fiber, so they’re a bloat-reducing way to satisfy your sweet tooth in swimsuit season (and all year-round!). To enhance your summer skin, berries are also packed with antioxidants that fight free radicals.

Avocado

Avocado

Can we say Avocadoooooooo…..the bright summery green mushy mash of happiness makes it an eye-pleasing topping for salads, sandwiches. Avocado is rich in healthy monounsaturated fat — which keeps you satisfied and boosts heart health — in addition to lots of belly-slimming fiber. 

Cherries

Cherries

First and foremost, sleep is a huge part of making any diet and exercise plan work, as it allows your body to process and recover from all the sweat and breakdown of muscle. And cherries are the perfect fruit for the job. Cherries act as a natural sleep aid thanks to their melatonin content, a hormone that helps control your sleep cycle. So enjoy a cup of cherries for dessert—in conclusion, they’ll help you maintain your toned physique by replacing less virtuous desserts and moving along your snooze process. Rested and refreshed is the look to go for!

Hasta la next time Escape Wavers!

Check out our latest Lockdown Getaway Wishlist

We’re all longing to get away and get on the beach again; but if you could fly anywhere in the world tomorrow, where would it be? Here are some of our favourite spots to help fill the long hours of coronavirus lockdown longing…

BALI
AYANNA BALI

Bali is by far one of the most beautiful and most popular tourist destinations in Asia and boasts some truly gorgeous beaches to relax and chill around in. While much of the action is centred around popular hot spots such as Kuta, Sanur and Ubud, the northern locations around Pemuteran and Gilimanuk are nowhere near as busy – and full of amazing beaches.

Also accessible from Bali are the wonderful Nusa Islands of Penida, Lembongan and Ceningan which compliment beautifully with our Jungle Beach Island inspired bikinis and cover ups.

BAHAMAS
BAHAMAS OVERVIEW

Some of the whitest sandy beaches and clearest true turquoise blue waters can be found in the Caribbean among the more than 2000 islands that make up The Bahamas.

An exotic and exciting adventure into the blue sea and the beautiful marine life that surrounds the Bahamas; are what fascinates us the most. It’s such good fun to get out there. Snorkel or diving in the gorgeous tropical water, swimming with all the exotic fish; it’s a real delight.

The Exuma Cays, home to a colony of the most unusual sea creatures known to the diving world – pigs! In between the sharks and their porcine friends are some wonderful coral reefs and walls. Interspersed with brilliant white sandy bottoms and innumerable small caves and caverns. Definitely makes us feel like we’re longing to get away! In such a stunning location; you’re going to want to look the part and we’ve got the perfect effortless chic and tropical looks for you!

THE PHILIPPINES
THE PHILIPPINES

The Philippines has a wide variety of completely different beach and water activity experiences to delight and entice every type of tropical traveller depending on where you go.

If you want some of the most stunning reefs in the Coral Triangle; they can be found somewhere in the Philippines (and in the national park of Tubbataha). You have a fantastic chance to see whale sharks, or thresher sharks around Malapascua. For the gram, make sure to go to Boracay; known for its luxurious white beaches and Bulabog beach water sports. The pristine sandy beaches and shallow turquoise waters will make you feel out of this world.

So hit us up as we’re all longing to get away. Where would you like to go when the Coronavirus Lockdown is lifted?

Frosted coconut mojitos

Frosted Coconut Mojitos rum bikini sunrise recipes simple mint syrup

FROSTED COCONUT MOJITOS

A fun and yummy way to get through this crazy ride called lockdown life than our very own Frosted Coconut Mojitos!

A little bit about Mojitos

Mojito (/moʊˈhiːtoʊ/Spanish: [moˈxito]) is a traditional Cuban highball. The cocktail often consists of five ingredients: white rumsugar (traditionally sugar cane juice), lime juicesoda water, and Spearmint.[1][2] Its combination of sweetness, citrus, and herbaceous mint flavours is intended to complement the rum; and has made the mojito a popular summer drink.[3][4]

When preparing a mojito, fresh lime juice is added to sugar (or to simple syrup) and mint leaves. First, the mixture is then gently mashed with a muddler. The mint leaves should only be bruised to release the essential oils and should not be shredded.[5] Then rum is added and the mixture is briefly stirred to dissolve the sugar and to lift the mint leaves up from the bottom for better presentation. Finally, the drink is topped with crushed ice and sparkling soda water. Mint leaves and lime wedges are used to garnish the glass.

The mojito is one of the most famous rum-based highballs. There are several versions of the mojito.[6]
