Our red hearts print comes in a favorite, and Classic Triangle Top, as seen above.
It also comes in a brand new style. This Style #770 – or Demi Scrunch top is the first of 3 underwire bikini tops exclusively created by TeenyB for you! Our Demi Scrunch is a unique top that is sporty, snug and supportive all with minimal coverage and maximum style. This bikini top WILL make your boobs look a little smaller in size, it has a unique fitting shape that looks a little “old school 40′s” pin-up style. The more you scrunch the top together, the more your boobs will fill the lower cup. While it is not for everyone, it is a very sexy and stylish way to mix up your wardrobe. Samantha models this top below and looks terrific, try yours today and see what YOU think!

Our second print is an adorable Pink Polka Dots on a black suit, with Bubble Gum Pink binding. It is flirty, girly and fun.
Available in our Classic and Enhanced Cut Triangle Top with 3 bottom choices. Our #220 – Teeny Thong for the aggressive flirt, a #311 – Whaletail Thong for the sporty siren, and our #415 – Brazilian Half Pucker (Our most popular bottom bikini style) for a Demure Diva.

Okay it is safe to say this year is already starting to blow by. After our successful Spring Line shoot, I took a much deserved break from my computer and working. We spend post Christmas and New Years in New Orleans which was very pleasant. The weather was moderately warm, especially for NOLA so it was great to walk the streets of the city.

After about the 3rd day of lounging and playing Words With Friends I begun to second guess my choice NOT to bring my computer with me. While I knew I would not have any of the edited content from our trip, I certainly had a lot of OTHER tasks I could have been working on in the meantime.

Every year we try and make some tweaks to the website. All with the idea of making the shopping and browsing experience better for the customer. When having our discussions as to what can be improved upon, one universal request is to make our photos larger. We spend a LOT of time shooting and honing in our photography style, so when we really do not get a chance to show it off, it does become frustrating. In just a few short weeks you will begin to see some of these changes on the site. Specifically with our SEPARATES section. Now, when you come to view a separate you will not only have a product photo, but also a larger photo showing the model with both the top and bottom. (Very similar to how we present our SETS.)

I digress, my point to this detail was not to bore you with work related updates, but to explain why, when I finally DID get back after the new year, I hit the ground sprinting, and I have not turned back once.

Going thru the very extensive list of Separates that we offer on the website in all of our departments is amazing to think just how many styles and colors of bikinis we actually sell! For someone to come to this website and say there is not enough choice, is, to me unthinkable. If you do not find something on TeenyB that you do NOT like, then, well you just don’t like super sexy perfectly tailored luxury Brazilian bikinis! (And to each his own.)

So needless to say, lots of changes to the website coming as we speak…(have you noticed our new interface?)

Now you have the ability to shop by color and bikini category as well as our traditional Departments Section. It is just scratching the surface of all the great additions we will have on our site this year…not to mention the awesome new styles and colors for Spring 2012!!

Well, I am sure you are all wondering, now that the shoot is over – when do we get to SEE it online?

Unfortunately we still have a lot of work to do after the fact, and this is the earliest we have ever shot our catalog, so I cannot imagine any of our newest stuff is going to be showing up on the website until February. (But I will not count out a special Newsletter Sneak Peak Preview and possible PRE-SALE).

If you haven’t visited our website lately, there IS some new and exciting things up already.

We are always adding new prints, no matter WHAT the time of year, so visit our Limited Edition Prints section to see the newest.

Our most popular department B.Couture – Oasis has NEW 2-Strand Trims. They are twice as sexy as the original single strand (still for sale on the website). Our new 2-strand Oasis comes in 4 color options; White (Lined), Yellow (limited release), New Blu and Coral Mania.

Wow, that went by really fast.

It is amazing how much time and effort goes into planning the catalog shoots, but how quickly they seem to go by.
It is no doubt that in the middle of it (long days, short nights) it feels like it is never going to end, but all the days seem to just blend together and the next thing you know it’s over.

It is always the few days after the shoots that really get to me. I am so focused on shooting, planning, organizing, etc. that I really have no time for anything else. I do not watch television, read any blogs or internet news stories, so when I try to assimilate myself back into regular life, I am out of the loop….to say the least.

Another interesting thing to note with regards to our photo shoots is the comradery it builds. Shooting on location in the same house makes it feel like a small reality show (for lack of a better description). Really it is like being on set shooting a movie. You are working with each other and being creative. Many times “acting” of sorts, or definitely stepping outside of yourself. And then of course you are eating dinner together, relaxing; basically spending every waking moment together. Over the course of the week, it becomes second nature. Knowing how close we will be working, I go to great lengths to always choose very particular people who we work with. While one bad apple will not necessarily spoil the bunch, it will definitely make a sour pie. But at the end of the week, when the work is done and the bags are once again packed up, one cannot feel a small twinge of sadness that it went by all so fast.

One of my favorite things to do post catalog shoot is go thru all of the behind the scenes photos. This is the stuff I really feel I miss out on, because I am so focused on work. I love going thru it day by day. Seeing the photo shoot in the eyes of someone else. I love seeing the smiles, the silly photos taken, and the memories built.

Thank you too everyone who participated in this years Catalog shoot, both models and staff alike. While it will not be the last, it certainly was a very memorable one.

And for those of you who think there is no possible way you could be a TeenyB model keep this in mind.

This year we had 2 BRAND NEW MODELS who have little to NO experience in front of the camera. Yep, we do not discriminate because you have no experience, we can spot potential from a mile away. So if you have always wanted to be a model, send in a photo, or submit a few you have taken to our Contributors section… you never know where it might lead you!!!

Emily (below) is one of our 2 beauties. Hard to believe she is a newbie huh?? Looking forward to shooting her again very soon.

Getting ready to head to New Orleans tomorrow. Of course we are looking forward to it, because it is a second home to us.
Eating great food, walking the beautiful city and most importantly Monday Night Football!!

Everyone knows I love football, and the Saints and we are looking forward to stomping the Giants on Monday.

After a short week of fun we will be heading back home and working hard getting ready for our catalog shoot in December.
We have pulled the jewelry and are laying out the newest bikinis as they come in! This year is going to be a very exciting year for TeenyB because we have a lot of new products to introduce.

Just last week we launched our newest bikini bottom – The Rio Pucker!
It is a new take on our very popular Brazilian Pucker line, but with slightly more coverage in key areas.

To describe who’s body type this Rio pucker fits best would be doing a disservice to how many body types can actually wear this.
If you want to check out the NEW RIO Pucker on our website click here!

We also have 3 new Underwire Bikini Top styles for our Spring Collection!!! More to come on that next week.

Enjoy your Holiday weekend and Go Saints!

LOTS and lots of stuff going on these days. This time of the year always seems to fly by.

We have officially planned our new 2012 line and are receiving some new prints every week. It always feels like Christmas when we get samples in. We get to pick thru them, see which ones we like, if the colors work. Of course the true test is when we actually get them on the models and shoot them. There have been many times when we aren’t sure of a print before we shoot it, but in looking at the photos we love it!!

While all of our samples get the opportunity to be shot, not all of them make the cut for the product line.
What do we do with these lonely samples you may ask???

The thing is, even if they do not make the cut for the product line, does not mean they aren’t adorable. A lot of times, we chose not to produce it, because it does not mesh well with the other colors we have, or perhaps we have another product that looks too similar. For whatever reason, these bikinis always end up finding a nice home.

We have a few new styles coming out for next season as well as some really fun prints and colors. More to come….

A quick follow up to a link we posted earlier, for the Iron Man Magazine contest.

Angela Leong has WON! That means she will be gracing the cover of this awesome magazine very soon!! We are so excited for her, and cannot wait to make her an extra special bikini to rock!

If you’d like to follow Angela on Facebook, check out her page here!

For most of my friends, Halloween is their favorite holiday. And why wouldn’t it be, you get to dress up, eat candy and be carefree! While it is not my FAVORITE holiday, it is definitely in the top 3.

Unlike my friends, I tend to wait until the last minute to decide my costume though, which isn’t a good thing.

I try to be something relevant to the previous year, yet not too obscure that no one will even know what I am!

This year, I still have not picked out a costume. I am thinking….but I have NO idea.

At least I can take away one choice from my list of questions about Halloween…what panties am I going to wear?

I have been talking about launching our panty line for months, if not years. While we still do not have it live on the site, we are absolutely closer than ever. So for those of you out there who have been waiting…I offer a treat. This month if you purchase a bikini set, we will give you a Limited Edition (never to be sold on the website) FREE pair of Halloween panties! Yep, and they are just as awesome as our bikinis.

The panty giveaway is for a limited time only, so don’t delay.
All panties are in style #220 (Teeny Thong).

We love to see our bikinis in magazines, who wouldn’t?

With fitness competitions in full swing, we are getting very busy making custom bikinis for girls around the country. A great customer and friend, Angela Leong has been kind enough to send us a link of a contest she is in.

Winner gets to grace the cover of Iron Man’s Magazine in this 2011 Hard Body Contest.

Vote for Angela if you want to see her rock a TeenyB!! In her photo, you will notice that she is wearing a very special TeenyB hand crafted by us to suit her personal needs. It’s an Oasis bikini in Hyeres with a FRONT PUCKER!! Yep, you might not ever see it on the site, but we DO make front puckers too!!!

To vote for Angela, follow the link (click on the photo below) and LIKE her on Facebook. It’s that easy.

Good luck Angela, we hope to see you on the cover!

In the past, I have always thought that more choices are better than few. I am a very decisive person. If I see something I like, I go after it. I do not second guess myself. But I am beginning to realize that people like me, MAY be on a short list.

At TeenyB, selling bikinis exclusively online can be very scary for most people. It is bad enough trying to find bikinis that fit properly (that is until they discover TeenyB) but then just buying it without ever touching it?!? We pride ourselves on our customer service. We are at your call, answering any questions about sizing, styles, even swatches of colors. We have an awesome samples program where you can put a deposit and receive a few sizes in a particular style so you can see which one fits best. And we have an excellent returns and exchanges program…but sometimes that is still not enough.

For the events we have held, I watch girls come in and try on 2 dozen bikinis not sure which one to take. I take it as a compliment because they obviously like the product, but it can be a time consuming thing. I remind myself though…most girls do not get the opportunity to see our entire line right in front of their eyes. They don’t get the opportunity to try on all of our styles, so they are taking advantage! And why not! Some girls may think they can never wear a Butterfly Top, but once they try it on, they fall in love with it.

Something special is happening the weekend after next and if you live in the Tampa FL area you should consider coming! TeenyB is participating as an exhibitor it it’s FIRST EVER bikini fitness competition. We will be live and in person with a booth to show anyone who is willing our styles IN PERSON! We have color swatches, trims and anything that will help you customize your own bikini!

Not only that, but we are having an EXCLUSIVE TRUNK SALE!

Yep, we said it, TRUNK SALE. That means SALE!!! TeenyB’s NEVER go on sale…except now. We have off the rack styles perfect for competition (NEVER SOLD ONLINE) and we have samples that are selling at a discounted rate. So save the date for October 1st!
More details to come.

What does we love about Nadia???

Let me count the ways….

She looks amazing in EVERY bikini you put on her.
She is funny, smart and sweet.
The list can go on and on…but why don’t you see for yourself.

Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel TeenyBBikinis so you can see the newest videos as they come out!!

Hope you enjoy.

Here in Vegas this week, and very excited about having to work this weekend.

I cannot believe it has been almost 3 years since we have been to this city, (especially since we used to come twice a year!). We have good reason to visit though, the Magic show is here and we have some work to do! Sourcing is a big part of being able to create new designs and ideas, and that is exactly what we are doing. We have a lot of ideas in the works for the coming months and years, and you have to start planning for all of the steps necessary to make them happen.

On our list of items to look for include trims and fabrics! Of course we have a few very specific needs, but we cannot give away ALL of our plans.

Right before we left, we perfected a BRAND NEW bikini bottom, so we are really excited about that. We expect it to launch at the end of Summer. Not that we don’t already love the bottoms we have, but we are expanding to keep fitting more body styles. Everybody’s booty is different, and while the pucker butt bottoms are a fantastic hit, we can always keep perfecting them. This bottom will really appeal to the girls who have a bigger, rounder, plumper booty! Same great fit, but this shape will really accentuate their larger curve!!

More about that later…..we have to get ready for the big show!

We are very proud of Jaime Baird for her consistent hard work and determination! We are so proud that she prefers to wear our bikinis on stage! We put just as much hard work with each of our hand crafted creations as she does on her body, making us a perfect combination!

There are many girls who contact us about getting a Custom Blinged suit for their competitions, but they are hesitant because it is a hefty expense. But it is important to realize, all of our bikinis are HAND CRAFTED, the design is created upon your request and personal needs, individually hand glued. They are all made with genuine Swarovski Crystals and come in a variety of sizes and colors. They should all be considered a work of art!

The smaller the crystals, the more they sparkle! It is tough to see the detail on each of our suits by a photo, in person is always the best and we are excited to announce we will shortly be setting up a booth at some of the popular fitness shows!

This will give many people a chance to see our product in person, touch them, try them on, see our color options and trims, and of course get a chance to see the OTHER bikinis we have blinged.

As you know, we recently added an Accessories line to our TeenyB. While there is only a totally adorable wet bikini bag there now, it will soon be filled with amazing cover-ups, wraps and t-shirts!

With being on the road for so long, I focused on downsizing the amount of luggage I carried with me, and with that comes a compromise with extras you would normally pack. Less shoes, less jackets and less purses. In my excitement of fitting everything into one bag, I didn’t realize I completely omitted ANY hand purse for special evenings out. (Assuming that my son would be with me most nights, I would need a diaper-esq bag).

Well one evening we decided to ditch the baby and have an adult night. Not wanting to travel without a purse I did the next best thing and emptied out my wet bikini bag (currently holding my panties) and tossed my lipstick, wallet and phone into it. It worked PERFECTLY! I even got a compliment on it.

Just another PLUS for a perfect multi-use bikini bag!!

For the past week, we have been on a cruise thru Alaska. It is my first time up here, and it is very beautiful. From what I hear the weather has been fantastic (they normally have more rain and clouds I guess). I can only imagine how cold it is during the Winter, brrrr.

The second day of our cruise, our boat went up the Tracy Arm Fjord. It was gorgeous! The entire journey was calm and serene, it looked like clouds and waterfalls were just painted on a picturesque mountain with Aqua blue water calmly below. The view from our deck we could see the glacier for quite a while, and it was interesting how much more detailed it really was. From far away it seemed so smooth…but as you came closer, you could see deep crevasses and chunks of ice falling off. It really was quite stunning. Waterfalls at every turn only added to the scenery and background noise.

While out boat did allow us to get much closer than I had expected it to, it still was a bit away. We decided to take a quick photo in my bikini top as we started our turn. Why you may ask…because, when do you EVER get a chance to take a bikini photo next to a Glacier?

NOT!!!!

Just because the sun is not shinning, it certainly hasn’t stopped us from having fun. This is our first time here, and what a great city. Aside from the cloudy skies and sporadic rain showers, we are having a great time. And most importantly, we are happy to have the family all together again! 3 weeks with no Daddy is NOT a good thing.

While there is still lots to explore, we really enjoyed Granville Island Market and visiting the aquarium. They even have Beluga Whales!!!! I am sure it will not be the last time seeing a whale while exploring up here but, I will always remember my first time.

Speaking of first times, I was reflecting with Maria when we were in Lake Tahoe. The very first time I EVER wore a bikini was in Lake Tahoe. We had actually went by the same store where I purchased it. I remember wanting to wear a bikini so bad because all of my sisters were wearing them (they were all older, and had boobs)…as for me, I was still growing them, but it did not stop me. I had (what I would now come to know) as a bandeau top with wiring in the front to create the illusion of a bust! It wasn’t even particularly cute, but I insisted that I was wearing a bikini and NOT a one piece.

Ahhh..memories!
Looking forward to making more soon!

This past weekend I tried to by some cute sandals at a store. Can you believe it, they were not only TOTALLY out of stock, but they also were starting to get rid of Summer clothes all together. Is it really time for Fall?

One of the things I love about selling online exclusively is that we can update NEW PRODUCTS whenever we want them!

Just because the stores are switching seasons, doesn’t mean we have to follow suit. In fact, check out 2 sexy new prints we JUST updated on the website!!

Indian Prints and Ikot prints are very trendy right now, and why not rock this trend with a sexy bikini to really push the edge!!

Limited Edition Indian Tribal Print with Crocus:

and Limited Edition Indian Feather Print. This print is really cool because the top triangles are always in black and white, and the bottom is where the color comes in on the suit!

Well we will be leaving Tahoe in a few short days. I cannot believe that 2 weeks has gone by so quickly.

I must admit, it is tough to be on the road, I just seem to lose track of time. It is not that I am homesick, (Of course I miss my husband and dog) but it really is a matter of it going by too quickly! I turn around, and 2 days have gone by and I have not once checked up on work. I can see how easy it is to get lost in relaxation.

But I was very pleased to check out the Ditch the Diaper page recently. It makes me feel good to read the messages and submissions that women have made on both ends: Those who have already become a TeenyB Girl, and those who WANT to become one.

Upon reflection of the event we thru at Caddy’s, it really was a great success on so many levels.
The first of course being, getting girls in our bikinis! The more girls who wear our suits, the more our suits can be seen by other potential TeenyB wearers.
The second success is I think we got a chance to show SO MANY different people (with EVERY type of body style) that you too can wear a TeenyB. Just because you think MODELS look great in our bikinis, it is tough to convince girls, that these bikinis are really made for the everyday person! People with curves and muscles, and boobs and butts! Skinny girls (no offense) are going to look great in most everything. It is a testament when you can fit DIFFERENT body styles into the same bikinis and it really looks great on them too!

After spending some time reviewing the photos, I am motivated to design more! I already have 2 new sexy top designs in my head and when I get back into town, we are going to make them!!

In the meantime, keep enjoying the sunshine and stay active.
