This week, I’ve been to quite a few press previews for Summer collections. It’s made me kind of want to wear flip-flops, even though it’s 15 degrees outside. In the spirit of the summer that is happening in my head, I present to you this week’s pick, Curlee Bikini. They’ve incorporated 360 Degree Mindfulness in their attempt to pay respect to Mother Nature. Read on to find out what that is.

Curlee Bikinis are made to order. In other, words, you design your bikini, they make it for you. This would make a great present for me…I mean….that lucky lady in your life who is pining for summer. They offer a one year guarantee. That’s pretty generous for a bikini line. But that’s how serious they are about making sure you’re satisfied with their product. Curlee Bikini also noticed how much clothing we waste every year. With the influx of fast fashion (ahem, H&M) people value their clothing less and tend to want to replace it with newer stuff before it has even lived a full life. To encourage you to fully get to know your bikini, Curlee Bikini is offering to have you ship your one year old bikini back to them and get 20% off a new bikini! So, if you bought an orange bikini last year because Pantone said orange was the Color of the Year, you can replace it with an emerald one, which is the Pantone color of 2013, without too much guilt.

These swimsuits have no padding, underwire or lining. They believe in celebrating the natural body as it is as evident by their beautiful fuller-figured models. If you’re endowed in the upper body department and reeaaalllyyy need some support, try lining the swimsuit with the same fabric as the swimsuit. It lengthens the life of the suit and is a bit more comfy, methinks.
.
Now, we’ve done a ton of talking about how great this brand is on an eco-conscious and mindful level. The biggest question? The one that decides whether you buy it or not? Is it CUTE? And will I go pretend-shopping in their store?
.
The answer is yes and would I ever say no to shopping? Check out my two fave suits from their collections.

I love the illusion of flesh at the middle section of this suit. It’s a really original. well-designed suit. I also love that it has a high neck. Sometimes, bikinis do not allow for beach sports. A high neck ensures that the ladies stay at home, where they belong. Get it here.

I’m a huge fan of monokinis. I think they’re so cool because people tend to be so busy trying to figure out where the fabric goes on your body, that they don’t even notice the cellulite on your thighs. Monokinis also have the most personality I’ve seen on a bathing suit. I love the print on this suit. It’s vibrant. It’s strong and it’s sexy. Get it here.

Curlee Bikini does swimsuits differently. They take a very mindful approach to making sure the customer is satisfied with the suit and their hope is that you get it, love it and wear it to death.
