Cantê Lx - Tropical state of mind

The 2015 Cantê Lx collection was finally released! Seriously, I was counting the days in a (almost) despair state. But last friday, after refreshing their facebook page a gazillion times, the 2015 swimwear collection was officially released.

First impressions: this is the summer of swimsuits. We've seen them a lot for a couple of summers but this is it's year. It's the ultimate statement piece to have. I couldn't agree more, swimsuits can do wonders for a woman figure and look incredibly cool.

There are also a few high waist pieces, like bikinis and also swimsuits. The tropical prints are also a reference of the brand (the prints are designed by Cantê), and of course couldn't miss on the collection. The predominant colours that were used are white, green, blue and turquoise.

In overall, the collection kept the essence of the brand but has brought some novelties, like new shapes and silhouettes.

Which are your favorite models?


A coleção de Verão da Cantê Lx foi finalmente lançada! A sério, eu estava a chegar a um estado de desespero com esta espera. Mas na sexta-feira, depois de ter atualizado um milhão de vezes a página de facebook da marca, a coleção de 2015 foi oficialmente lançada.

Primeiras impressões: este é o Ano dos fatos-de-banho. Já os tínhamos visto nos últimos dois anos, mas este ano a peça dominou por completo a coleção. Para mim, é a peça a ter, os fatos-de-banho podem fazer maravilhas na figura feminina além de darem um ar muito in e cool.

Também há vários modelos de cintura subida, quer em biquínis e fatos-de-banho. Os padrões tropicais tão característicos da marca (os padrões são desenhados pela Cantê) não podiam deixar de aparecer. As cores predominantes foram o branco, verde, azul e turquesa.

Em geral, a coleção manteve a sua essência mas trouxe várias novidades, como novas e formas e silhuetas.


Quais são os vossos modelos favoritos?

I couldn't resist you... Cantê

Cantê's collection has blown my mind away, and I couldn't resist not having a piece on my wardrobe. The chosen one was Esther. As soon as I saw it on the lookbook I knew it was perfect for me.

I'm very pleased with its quality and fitting, and also with the quickness of the girls of the shop that replied all my emails and within a day my order was at home.

The bikini saga continues...


 After I introduce to you some portuguese swimwear brands and also my sweetheart Calzedonia, today I'm showing you other international brands.

For starters, my brazilian favourites Cia Marítima and Água Doce.
I tend to go for their basics pieces, mainly because of their cut and great quality. I consider Cia Marítima, in my opinion, is the queen of prints, always sending your mind to tropical paradises.

A brand that I've recently discovered is Khongboon Swimwear. I've bumped on it accidentally while I was navigating online and it was enough. Its exotic prints and patterns caught my eye as also the shape and cut of the bikinis. 







Finally, there's the famous surf brand, Billabong. I love its designs and quality but I don't understand why the bottom pieces of bikinis that are sell in Europe are different from the ones in Brazil, I'm always disappointed when i see the bottom pieces on the europe online shop, while in other shops they have much more variety. Although this minus point, I think their basics are great and cheaper than the brazilian brands i've mentioned, and are available in many colours and different  shapes of bottom pieces (even in Europe!).

100% Portuguese swimwear brands

When it come to bikinis, on the past few year, my searches always ended up on brazilian brands or Calzedonia. But I always felt that there weren't many options when it came to the style and shape (at least in Portugal). Apparently, I was ignoring a wide range of portuguese options. I've already shown you here an here some amazing brands that took my breathe away. So today I'm bringing you another bunch of portuguese swimwear brands.

Calzedonia Summer '14

June is the official month of summer, at least if you are on the northern hemisphere, and with it the desire to spend as much time as possible on the beach or by the pool.

With that, I'm bring another bikini brand, the italian and super famous Calzedonia. Everyone knows it, and personally I have at least half a dozen bikinis from it. So, for this very reason I select a sample of this summer collection. Every year they come up with different concepts which are reflected into the desgins, new shapes and fabrics giving us a wide variety of pieces. Don't forget to check their basics line which I think are a must! 

See it for yourself.

Bohemian Swimwear


Temperatures continue to rise and my thoughts go straight to those summer days spent on the beach. 
Today, I show you another portuguese bikini brand, Bohemian Swimwear. Its concept is a mix of styles, brazilien, australian and hawaiian. The brand primes for sofisticated and exclusive designs, with high attention to details and bohemian prints. 

Check out a sample of the summer 2014 collection.
