Luckily Florida doesn't stay cold for very long so beach/pool weather is usually in our favor. As you can probably tell from the name of my blog, I'm a big fan of swimsuits and beachwear in general. The holidays is the perfect time to stock up on some new suits for the year ahead and I usually pick up a thing or two for the husband and my girl friends as gifts.
SwimOutlet.com contacted me to review their online store and merchandise and of course I agreed. I purchased the Volcom Wild Marks Bikini top and matching Brazilian cut bikini bottom for myself and the Rusty Men's Boardshorts for K with the gift card they provided. I have to say the material of the bikini is so incredibly soft you can tell it's great quality. Actually same goes for the shorts. I also love that they kind of (not on purpose) match each other.
From growing up in the Caribbean I've always been a fan of good quality swimsuits and beach clothing that will withstand the salt and sun. Luckily SwimOutlet.com carries most of my favorite brands including Vix, Betsey Johnson, Volcom, Roxy and Kate Spade just to name a few. I picked some faves for Him and Her that would be perfect for gifts or just to gift yourself.
Gypsy Road Kimono / Wrap Bikini Top , Bikini Bottom / Pineapple Kaftan Cover Up
Free Spirit Dress / Jaime Bikini Top, Bikini Bottom / Pineapple Paradise Tank
One / Two / Three / Four / Five / Six
They offer a whole lot more than just fashion swimwear like for competitive swimmers, techies, kids, and water sports such as surfing and water polo. The fashionista in me naturally drifted to the beach clothing and bikini sections of their online shop.
If you're looking for gift ideas, SwimOutlet.com's Holiday Gift Guide is a good place to start as they offer some great ideas for different types of swimwear and equipment. I also like that they offer free shipping on purchases over $49, which always helps to cut the cost of shopping online.
Even if you don't want to gift someone a swimsuit a beach tote is always a great idea - especially if they have a vacation coming up!! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston

All great ideas! My husband loves Hurley bathing suits and RVCA bathing suits. I wouldn't have thought to get that for him for Christmas, but it's a great idea!
ReplyDeleteAhh this makes me want to go to the beach-- or plan a vacation somewhere warm :) I love the bikini you picked out from swim outlet!
ReplyDeleteGreat picks! I hate when bathing suits are low quality and crap out.
ReplyDeleteOh I love that pineapple tote! So cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute, original gift guide! Perfect for your climate...I love it!
ReplyDeleteThat olive swimsuit is amazing!!! As is the pineapple shirt and tote! I haven't purchased a new swim suit in the last two years. I am hoping to get an awesome one for this coming up season.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the pineapple tank. One thing I really like about living in the South is that shops stock bathing suits all year round, but everything's on sale this time of year. I just bought an awesome suit from Target for $17 total!
ReplyDeleteI love those crochet shorts! I'll have to save this for the future--we don't need it anytime soon, but my husband could use a new pair of trunks.
ReplyDeleteThat Gypsy kimono is such a cute cover-up.
