Buckle up! We wrangled even more out of those favorite vintage denim jeans!...recycling, and upcycling them into a NEW, super cute, 2 piece bikini. Straight up denim, we now offer a matching top with a finished off pocket design and overall buckles that match our popular, caboose flattering, "Hotcakes." We were the first to pioneer and perfect these sexy jeans bottoms and you'll know by the fit that they're an authentic Colleen Kelly design. A collection fave, there's now even more to love!

O-kay...we murdered the "fringe trend" with this magnificently striking one-piece! The dramatic deep front V-plunge, with sliced strips of galvanized knit fringe, gives this monokini a dynamically flowy feel and the impression of being covered only in strips of fringe. The center of the top is strategically held together by clear elastic to support the design and add even more of a "Wow" factor. Fitting like an absolute dream, this is THE SUIT, don't miss out on this one...OBSESSED!
*For our customers that desire a more modest look, we recommend a pair of our selection of Breast Petals.

Eureka!!! These are the hottest thing to happen to denim since the Gold Rush!
Scoop cut, hand made, and expertly crafted to make this classic fit like a glove, these sexy jeans shorts bottoms show off the cheekier side of a trusted American classic! Released in our Past Favorites Collection, as part of the Bottlecap Jeans Bikini (also shown) and in this year's New Collection for 2019 as the Hotcakes 2-Piece Bikini, this is a re-cut of Colleen's original jeans bottoms design that "tore up" the Florida bikini circuit back in the 90s, a design that so many of you have been asking us to bring back as an accessory. These are made from real, worn-in vintage jeans, expertly tailored to fit just right up front, and scooped perfectly around back for a sexy, "cheeky" fit that just can't be beat!

Idyllic and unassuming, this all occasion 2-piece offers a well-played look of relaxed sophistication, and comfortable style. The simple silhouette, fabricated in supple deep navy stripe has polished silver tone buckles for a glint of shine at the neck and on the hips. It will take you from languid days of seductive sightseeing to sunset cocktails with effortless grace. With "endless as the ocean reasons" to fall in love, this "timeless as the tides" style will be an instant classic ready for any journey.

Packed with eye catching detail, this adorable stylized cowboy-esque "kini" is crafted with precisely assembled elements like plush faux pony fur, rich stretch denim, saddle stitch detailing, and finished off with barrel beads, shiny conchos and metal tipped straps, giving this new bikini a modern-rustic vibe. The straps on top tie in back and the hip straps tie on the side, adjusting to make it fit just right. Admit it, its super cute and an absolute must to pack along on your next adventure. You'll love just wearing the top on its own with jeans!

Oozing charm, this feminine, flirty "open knotted" design comes in fun "festival" colors and is sure to brighten any day, trip, vacation, festival..you name it! You'll love just wearing the top with your favorite shorts. And, since fringe is having a moment, we trimmed the back in it just for fun. Sequins add a flash of sparkle and shine to the suede fringe. The top straps tie behind the neck and back for an adjustable fit and the hip straps tie as well to make this suit fit just right. The possibilities are infinite with this little beauty that is "accidentally" amazing!
