Billabong x Tom Veiga Collection

I was looking online for some new bikinis ready for the British summer (if we have one) and stumbled apon these!

These are the latest designs from Tom Veiga for Billabong. So simple, but yet soo nice! my personal favourite is the one on the right. I love the way the pattern, the abstract waves and sun are great! Almost the same design as the second bikini, but I prefer the halter neck bikini top and hooped bottoms.

Can be bought from the Billabong website! Need to order myself some when I get more money!



Billabong Girls Europe  contacted Veiga and asked him if he would in interested in creating some work for the 2012 Summer collect. Tom made three original images that are now seen on bikinis, bags, t-shirts you name it. The images all show Veiga’s style. Bright, bold colours and abstract blocked lines in different shapes and sizes! 









Other work of Veiga’s is displayed on surf boards! Need one of those in my life aswell!
His designs work so well for both men and women, and are so flexible that they can be adapted into so many different items. He’s currently working on expanding the range to pillows, bags and mugs. They should be released shortly.
Online sources have also said that Tom Veiga’s has commented about wanting to put his designs onto cars and shoes!

Check out the video!







Surfing woo!

Well, yesterday, me and my bud Emilie Layla Lovaine went to Llantwit Major with out Quiksilver surf coach Nathan Phillips.
We almost pulled out because another local surf school had cancelled their lessons and said the sea was 'too dangerous' due to high winds and a killer rip.


We got their around one, but being girls look around half hour to actually get into our wetsuits and reach the water. After a quick warm up and some words of wisdom off Nate we ventured into the sea! The waves were perfect!

not too big, so able to get right on them, and if we missed one the next wave would be straight after so there was no waiting around at all. (for once!)



I was loving it, went out pretty far, so far I couldnt touch the floor, and being 5ft 7 that's pretty deep! 
The waves started to get bigger and the rip tide stronger as the wind picked up and the tide came. I could be sat straight up on the board and pretty far out and the waves would still be coming over my head. Thank god nate brought his mate along, he was my life saver at some points, holding my board as I went through the waves.


Quite happy with my improvement yesterday, getting up a good few times. Then I took a hard knock to the face, felt like my nose was bleeding and all the skin had come off my lips. I was just being a wimp really, nothing wrong with me, but it made me slightly less confident and I just wanted to play on the white waves for the last half hour!\

But all in all, it was a great day! can't wait until next time!





Em's new suit is amazing!
