Giveaway: Skinny Bikini

skinny-bikini-2

It’s giveaway time, lovelies! And today’s is extra special, because up for grabs is one gorgeous bathing suit by Skinny Bikini - a new swimwear company recently launched by my dear friend Aida Takyrbasheva! Being a smart cookie that she is, Aida founded Skinny Bikini with a hope of creating a perfect bikini – one that’s glam and edgy, but also comfortable, and made of only high-quality fabrics.

“Skinny Bikini represents a confident woman, show-stopping jetsetter with an immeasurable sense of individuality who loves to have fun. A Skinny Bikini customer loves to be daring and edgy, provocative yet elegant, and appreciates a comfortable fit without having to sacrifice a sexy look.”

All Skinny Bikini products are made in USA, using only the best fabrics, and exotic prints from Asia, India, South America, and Europe. Every piece incorporates hand-made, stitched, details along with glamorous embellishments, and rhinestone appliqué. Aida wanted to incorporate accents that are over-the-top yet versatile, which is why most of the trims are removable.

And to celebrate the official launch of Skinny Bikini, Aida graciously agreed to give one lucky Style Blog reader an Arabian Nights bikini ($296 shown in first photo) – a classic black bikini with glam detailing. Amazing, right?
