Summer shredding never looked and felt so good! I absolutely loved surfing in this Roxy Zipperless Long Jane Wetsuit. The fabric was ultra stretchy and easy to get into, but was snug enough to keep me warm in Santa Cruz’s chilly Summer waters 🙂
Here are some of the technical features of the suit:
A classic one-piece that will make you feel extra cute and extra comfortable during your next beach adventure…Roxy always gets it right 🙂 I loved pairing this swimsuit / bodysuit with these flowy pants. It’s the perfect combo for all beach babes; easy to pack and easy to throw on.

Ultra comfy and stylish, this Billabong bodysuit is a Summer staple for every surfer girl. With the perfect fusion of retro high cut leg and modern floral print you’ll be a standout in the water FOR SURE! Shop the Billabong Surf Beat Bodysuit here 🙂
After Acacia Swimwear’s Miami Swim Week show this Summer I couldn’t stop obsessing over their amazing new styles and prints. I feel like I say this every season in respect to Naomi Newirth’s designs, but I always seem to connect to the vibes that she creates with her swimwear and ready-to-wear pieces. The theme of Acacia’s 2019 collection is ‘An Ode to Retro Hawaii. A Dedication to the innovators before us’. What a wonderful way to share little bits of history through fabric, fit and colour stories…I can’t get enough! I can honestly say that I have yet to purchase an Acacia bikini that doesn’t fit like a glove, and I treasure each piece because it’s always associated to a fun surf trip I’ve taken somewhere where I’ve created great memories.
I literally started this blog after I got my first Acacia bikini because it fit so well and gave me confidence to rock a bikini. I promise that you can’t go wrong when choosing any style from their collection, no matter your size…You’ll love it!
Acacia released the full 2019 Resort Collection today for everyone to browse. You can’t shop it yet, but when you can I’ll let you know on my Instagram 😉 In the meantime, I’ve added below my favourite snapshots from their Swim Week Show.
Let me know what you think!

During my last trip to Barbados I had heard through a friend that a super cute shop had opened up in Holetown called Always Summer.I was told that this shop carried my fave bikini brand Acacia so of course I had to check it out for myself and see if the rumour was true 😉
As soon as I stepped into the store I was in heaven. They have the cutest beachy dresses, shoes, jewellery, home goods AND there is even an ultra cool cafe in the shop. Safe to say that this place is curated to perfection.
While perusing their bikini selection I DID in fact find some amazing Acacia pieces and I snagged up this Retro Paradise set that I absolutely love. I chose the Spain top and Alicante Bottom both in size medium and they are a perfect fit.
Like I’ve said before, you can never go wrong with an Acacia kini’ and if you happen to be in Barbados definitely check out Always Summer and go try on a few!
Throwin’ it back to one of my fave Acacia Swimwear prints ‘Dragon Stripe’. Somehow I managed to forget to post about this one-piece when I first got it, but it’s one of my favourites. I love the back cut-out detail that makes it look like a bikini from the back and the tie details at the sides. Naomi Newirth who designs Acacia Swimwear is a print genius and I can’t get enough of her designs…Can’t you tell?! 😉
I’ve looked towards Elle Ferguson for fashion inspo for the past few years now, so when I heard she was coming out with a new collab with Billabong I knew it would be killer.
I totally get the Blue Lagoon vibes from this kini’ and I’m absolutely here for it. The off-the-shoulder fit, with the lace up front and gold detailing is perfection and ultra comfy. I loved wearing this top with the sarong and denim shorts. The high cut bottoms were a great match for the top, super flattering and cheeky…Just perfect! You definitely feel the beach babe vibes in this set.
Sorry it took so long to put this together, but here it is 🙂 A little glimpse into our New Years Surf Trip in Barbados. Starting 2019 on holiday with our family and friends was such a brilliant idea. We got to recharge, and enjoy what we love doing most surfing, eating and chilling 😉
