Our friends from Laguna Beach Club have been involved in the development of the new Mexico and Chichen Itza sim (sponsored by the Tourism Board of Mexico) and asked Namiko Surf Co. for a Mayan-themed release… so here we have the Maya Bikini and Jewelry sets. Five colours, three different bikini bottoms to switch up, anklets, bracelets, earrings, and necklaces!

Now available at all shops in-world… or see it up close and personal at the Mexico sim!

Happy Wednesday,
Keala

P.S. Yes… (Thor), there is LOTS of new things happening and new products coming soon!
P.P.S. We have new shops at Bishara Resorts, La Bahia, and also Pushkin (a Japanese beach sim). Check out our list of locations in-world to see them.

The first day of summer is just around the corner… and I can’t wait. We have new bikinis and boyshorts available now at the little shop at Quan Li (and all the shops when I get back from London!) that are just bursting with fruit flavour. Tangy, sweet, juicy and ripe. Ah, can you tell I’ve been craving a little summer?

These sets include both bikini bottoms and boyshorts (one of Cierra’s requests!!)… and they are just yummy. You can buy all five colours or turn to your left in the shop and buy them separately.

Another new thing is that these bikinis are on the shirt/pants layer, so no more fighting with your tattoo layers. Yay. Tasty. Summer is here.

Did I get inspired in Fiji? Of course. How could I not get inspired, drinking kava and seeing new textiles and art? This is the first set of bikini and boardshorts based on one of the spots I visited (yeah, there’s more stuff coming!!)… Pacific Harbour at the south coast of the big island of Fiji.

Hand-dyed and block-printed bamboo long and loose boardshorts come with three bars of our own eco-friendly ‘green+sticky’ surfwax. The bikini set includes a set of bangle bracelets carved from ironwood. Both are available in colours inspired by the surf spots throughout Fiji: Cloudbreak, Frigates, Namotu, Restaurants, and Sigatoka

Bamboo for a boardshort or bikini fabric? Yes. Bamboo fabric is extremely durable and has a natural sheen similar to silk — it is a truly luxurious, natural fibre. Like other natural fibers such as hemp, it is anti-bacterial, breathable and biodegradable. In addition, bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants in the world, reaching maturity within three to four years, and can be cultivated without pesticides or fertilizers. So, bamboo-fabric boardshorts and bikinis? Definitely.

These are available for purchase now at all the shop locations (except the Venice Beach location) and also on SL Exchange. Check out the newly renovated shop at SLeek Beach Club too… many changes at that beach.

Thanks also to Coral Cortes who reviewed the Cocoa Beach bikinis and Slate boardshorts for the SL Shopping Guide!

She’ll be doing another review soon for the Pacific Harbour set too in the next few days. Thanks so much!! See her first review here »
