Fictional fashion icon Miranda Priestly said it best “Florals. For Spring? Groundbreaking” Clearly dripping with sarcasm this states the obvious, we aren’t reinventing the wheel when we look to this as a trend in the warm weather months. Every spring we
Meet Kelia and Monyca, two of Roxy’s Pro Surfers who are living the dream! The ultimate Roxy dream that is. They travel to exotic locations (they we’re just in Spain and Australia and have a trip planned to Tahiti!) to surf and do photo-shoots for the brand.

What’s more fun then getting a Roxy bathing suit? Getting one to decorate one! At the recent Roxy Summer 2012 preview, my fellow bloggers put our DIY skills to the test and pimped out some bathing suits. I went for some fancy stitching, coupled with a whole lot of shells on the bottom. Provided my new pink bikini will probably self-destruct in the washing machine, I’m still quite proud of myself!
In between stitching my new suit, I perused the room draped in the Roxy Summer 2012 Collection. It doesn’t matter the temperature outside, there’s nothing that puts me more in the mood for Summer, then Roxy. Board shorts, rompers, beach cover ups… the collection makes me want to move to beach and never look back. Although I’m past the stage in my life where I could ever pull off tie-dye or more of the hippyish styles.

Recently, I got an advanced peak at Roxy’s Spring/Summer 2011 collection and I am excited to share the collection with you. Roxy holds a special place in my heart, as it was where I had my first internship when I was in college. At the time, part of the perks of being an unpaid intern was getting to raid the samples closet (which just happened to be my size!) before they we’re even available to the public (once the sales team was of course done with them). Needless to say there was an extreme cool factor to be rocking a Roxy outfit before it was even released. If I still had that hookup, here’s what I’d be snagging from this collection:
I’m so into printed leggings, relaxed of the shoulder tops, and all kinds of in love with that white top pictured above! Now all I need is a tan.
