Sweet Swimwear and Charity

Summer is my favorite season!  The best part of summer is the sun, the surf, snow cones and my birthday. Every year since the age of 5, I would get a new bathing suit and I made such a big deal of picking the right one. I prefer pretty one-piecers. Well, I fell in love with the swim wear line from Lime Ricki. This collection has summer colors and a summer sweatness that is just my style.  Even better, Lime Ricki, makes it a priority to give back.

Lime Ricki donates 10% of every pink suit to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and Lime Ricki gives 10% of all other suit sales to Charity Water, an organization that brings clean and safe drinking water to developing nations.

Summer isn't over yet! So stop by Lime Ricki and help make a difference.
