Ditch the Diaper Event is Back – Mark your Calendars!!!!

What better way to officially kick off the Summer then with a FREE TeenyB bikini!
That’s right, due to the overwhelming support of our last Ditch the Diaper event, we have decided to host it again. Just doing our part to rid the world of large diaper-like bikinis. And we are not the only ones who agree!
Sofia Vergara says it herself, “I was like, ‘What is that?’ It’s like a diaper. It’s terrible,” she tells the April 2012 issue of Esquire about first seeing American bathing suits. “Who can look good in that?” Maybe she checked out our video too???
Well there are no excuses now. If you live in the Tampa area and want to party on Memorial Day weekend with us, now’s the chance!!!!
Now that the weather is officially warmer in most places, (Florida has definitely been ready for Summer for like the past 2 months) clubs are starting to open their doors on the weekend with special events. Last weekend was the kick-off season for a place in Tampa called South Beach Sundays. A good friend of mine asked if we would like to participate in the event by suiting up the girls working the promo.
Naturally because it is a outdoor pool club, much like the ones you see in Vegas (only a lot smaller) all the girls would be wearing bikinis. I was excited that I was approached about this idea because we have actually been doing our research and working away trying to find the next great place to do a Ditch the Diaper event.
Our Ditch the Diaper event went over so well last year (check out the link above if you have never seen OR heard of it) that we knew we had to bring it back. I will give more information about this too…but definitely in a different post. Let’s stay focused!
While I had never attended South Beach Sunday’s I had heard about it from several friends of mine so was anxious to go and check it out.
Here are a few photos from the event, but you can see a LOT more on their Facebook page – southbeachsundays.

Participating in a Fashion Show this Friday for Charity…
January 23, 2012

As if we weren’t busy enough…
We get approached a lot to participate in different events, but every once in a while, something catches our attention and we KNOW we have to get involved. This Friday, TeenyB will join forces with The Gentlemen’s Society benefiting the Children’s Dream Fund for a fun filled night of fashion extravaganza.
What better way to get a party started then with a bikini fashion show?
If you are local to the Tampa area and would like to support the Children’s Dream Fun, be sure to join us.
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!
That is not to say, no fun is had when I am around…but just because I am gone does not mean that work comes to a grinding halt!
If it weren’t for the incredible staff at TeenyB, we would be nothing!
Our main photographer, Bobby Turi is busy setting up test photo shoots as we speak. If you have always wanted to model for TeenyB, now is your chance. We are currently test shooting for some trips we will be making to the Bahamas in the Fall.
Well that sure went by fast! A belated Happy Father’s Day to all the Dad’s out there…especially to my hubby!
This weekend we did our Ditch the Diaper event and it was a total success. We are working now on trying to sort the before and after photos and match up the names, it’s similar to the Memory game. It’s been really fun to see them (the before and after photos) side by side… I think you are really going to enjoy looking at them once they are up on the website.
This weekend was successful for a lot of reasons, but mainly that I think we got an opportunity to show the brand to people that might have never thought they could wear a TeenyB!
You could see that a lot of women were nervous about putting on a bikini that “seemed so small” at first, but once they tried it on and had a chance to look at themselves, they realized it really made them look better. I see women of all sizes, body types, and ages and they all have the same initial worries about putting the suit on! It doesn’t matter if they are super skinny, have tattoos or terrible tan lines (in fact, a LOT of exposed tan lines for sure!!) If you have never worn a TeenyB before, of COURSE it is going to FEEL like it is super small, but the reality is…they are conditioned to be wearing TOO BIG of bikini’s….hence, Ditch the Diaper!
I feel like those women who participated in the event, will hopefully continue to wear the bikini around other friends who were not there, and it can spread!! I can tell you one thing is for certain, but the end of the day – you could see TeenyB had made it’s mark on the beach at Caddy’s and there were a lot of smiling faces around!!!
I want to extend a very special thank you to all of the staff at TeenyB who made this event possible. It went very smoothly and we all worked together, making adjustments as we needed. It is really refreshing to work with a group of people that are all on the same team and working towards the same goal. It truly will allow us to make anything we set our minds to possible!
Thank you again to everyone who participated in the Ditch the Diaper event! More to come soon.
PS – I didn’t even get a chance to mention the video!!!!!
Everyone has been working really hard at TeenyB these days. We have a lot of great projects in the works, and have been really pushing our boundaries when it comes to creativity and fresh ideas.
When we first created this company, we knew HOW we wanted to site to look and feel, but recognized that it was not going to happen right away. We will always be updating it with fresh styles and prints, sure, but the feel of the photos will grow as our photography does. We must always be evolving our style…it is part of being a luxury brand. WE have to be the creators. If we do not, then it is easy for people to emulate and replicate, which essentially would then make us obsolete.
What better time to present a brand new look to our company then with the upcoming Independence Day? And what better way to describe a new style of bikinis as well. We are just scratching the surface with this new style of photography, but it is something we have been longing to do for several years.
Introducing our first Special Edition Independence Lookbook and Catalog! (To view this entire catalog, please click on the image below)
We have been asked several times if we have any Look Books or Catalogs and this will be the first of many to come throughout the year, so make sure to keep checking.
These bikinis are all for sale, but for a short time only (Guaranteed Delivery for July 4th), but after that, they are gone so make sure to get yours today!!!
What makes these bikini so special????
Besides being able to mix and match all the styles to fit your personal style and preference, we also have some new styles in general! Can anyone say…RUFFLES?? Be sure to check out all the style options available on the last page of the catalog…OHHH, and you can click on any one you like to take you directly to the storefront photo!
It is always a day where I have to run a bunch of errands that the weather is just so crappy I barely want to step outside. Today is definitely that day.
I don’t mind being cooped up in a house once in a while. I being projects that I have been meaning to start, catch up on emails (and blogs!!) and generally waste a little bit of time. Which is something that I don’t really get a chance to do that often.
So how did I waste my afternoon???? Watching videos of course!!! But not you normal, Hollywood sucky videos…awesome TeenyB ones!
We are always updating it, and the most exciting stuff is about to come. (Hello….Bahamas!!!)
Just this week, Dennii is modeling a super gorgeous Kelly Green Oasis Bikini! Keeps me warm on these miserable wet cold days.
Hot huh?? Just the tip of the iceberg. Be sure to sign up to get notified every time we upload a new video.
And if you think you can make a better video, be sure to visit our Contributors Page where you can do just that. Not only can you submit your own bikini videos (MUST BE WEARING A TEENYB of course) but you can also get $150 gift certificate for doing so. How awesome is that?
Now, that is what a call a great way to pass the time!!!
Welcome everyone into the New Year. It is going to be a very exciting one for us and we are charging full steam ahead.
We will be gearing up to our Catalog shoot in the Bahamas and are looking forward to shooting some new girls, as well as some favorites.
One of the new models we are most excited about has another contest running, that we would like to inform you about. This is a great way to get you acquainted with the gorgeous Holly Bricken!!
She not only started out as a Customer of ours, but will soon be one of the featured models on our website.
You can see that Holly is already rocking HER TeenyB. She models an Oasis Bikini in Royal Shiny.
Holly is not only gorgeous but she is very sweet too! If she is not motivation to get your butt in bikini gear, then we do not know what WILL motivate you.
Well we are finally recovered from the Who Dat Nation/TeenyB Pool Party a few weekends ago. It is easily agreed the party was a huge success.
Not only were we able to get a lot of new fresh faces to the party, but we had some old favorites as well. I envision this number to continue growing the more our company grows.
We were also able to introduce a few new bikini tops at this party. While we only offered one top in each size (in assorted colors) they went quickly. The lucky ones who came early were able to have full choice of all the bikinis offered. And since everyone gets to keep their bikinis, a few lucky girls have the VERY FIRST of these styles ever!!!
We will have plenty of photos to show off the new tops in due time – when we start shooting our Spring 2011 catalog, but until then, you will just have to get your fill at our Facebook Fan Page – TeenyBBikinis
I will leave you with one photo…
The rest you will have to check out on our Facebook Fan Page – and I promise there are a LOT more bikinis in them.
It is always exciting for us to get emails from customers and friends alike telling us of their travels around the world in their TeenyB Bikinis! Most people buy special bikinis for a vacation and they love to show it off. We especially love when they send in photos WITH their stories!
Most recently, a good friend and model of ours Maria, set off on a 6 month journey around Europe. We have no doubt she is having a super time in her travels…but she made our day recently when she sent us a few photos!
Here Maria is posing in her Oasis Bikini in front of the Versailles Palace in France. We have no doubt she managed to turn a LOT of heads!!
Here is another great shot, and personal favorite in Cinque Terre, Italy!
This only inspires me to keep working on making that Venice, Italy shoot a reality!! Everything is so photograph-able!!
If you would like to see more photos of Maria on her travels, be sure to visit our Facebook Page!
Well it feels like I am always trying to play catch up with updating this blog. I turn around and the week is over. Time really does fly when you are having fun!
We have a bunch of great things going on with TeenyB – including the successful Fashion Show we hosted about two weeks ago!!
You can see several photos from this Fashion Show on our FACEBOOK Fan page. Either click on the link, or search for TeenyBBikinis!!
Our models did terrific and we have been busy setting up photo shoots for each girl who participated. Not only will they be featured on our storefront, but also in our MODEL PAGE GALLERY!
A few highlights of the fashion show that were a big hit with the girls… RUFFLES!
Showing off a girlie attitude is always fun, and this playful addition to our Classic Cut Triangle Top is just the ticket. (We made it even more girlie by adding crystal rhinestones!) While none of crystallized bikinis are for sale on our website yet, they still were a favorite with the crowd!
Be sure to check out all the other photos today! (There are a LOT posted on FB so you won’t want to miss them!)
We are very excited this week, a lot of great stuff coming together.
We just received some NEW PRINTED bikinis in and are very eager to get them shot and up on the site.
They are fun and exciting for a late Summer arrival, and will be sure to catch your eye.
We will be doing a photo shoot this weekend with one of our sexy models Lindsay, so be sure to keep a look out for NEW PRODUCTS up on the site soon!!
We are also getting ready for an upcoming FASHION SHOW in Clearwater, FL in August. We hope to be showcasing a few new designs in this show. The designs should come out later in the season, just in time for you Winter vacationers!!
We have an All-Star line up walking this Fashion Show, so you won’t want to miss it if you live in the area!!
And none other than the gorgeous Ally Rivera will be hosting this event!
Well Summer is here. Whether or not it is OFFICIALLY Summer is one thing, but the weather is HOT and Muggy here in Florida which means time to swim, and hit the beach! (Like we haven’t been already!)
It makes me think, when do you start preparing for Summer?? When do you go out and buy your new bikinis?? Is it in February or March, to be extra prepared for the Season? Or do you wait until you have a nice golden tan so you look great when trying on the new suits???
I am not sure if there is a special time I tend purchase bikinis. I like to shop for them all year round. Which is perhaps why we at TeenyB like to ALWAYS add new bikinis throughout the Season…so be sure to look for new special prints available in July and August months…even two NEW BRAZILIAN BOTTOMS!!! Us girls always like to keep things new and fresh. The Summer and swimming months can be up to 4-6 months out of the year…I definitely like to freshen my wardrobe more often then that.
But I digress….
Starting off today, June 6th and running until Labor day (September 6th) is a TeenyB Video Contest!
You can check out all of the details on our website:
This is the perfect way to incorporate your new OR old TeenyB Bikinis and earn the chance to win a $100 gift certificate to TeenyB for your NEW Summer Bikini Purchase.
And the best part is, that is not even the main prize!!! Every approved submission gets $100 Gift Certificate. The main prize is OH SO MUCH BETTER. Click on the banner above to read all about it.
You may notice a sweet face on the site this month. Whether or not you can place where you know her FROM is a different story, but her name is Ally Rivera and she is just as wonderful IN person, that she is on camera!
Ally has done several television jobs, hosting a show on Telemundo and various events. She also has been seen, most recently on the magazine cover of Women’s Runner.
Not only is Ally gracing our front page of TeenyB this month, but she is also officially the FIRST TeenyB Girl!!
She will not be the last, but we always remember our first!
And what exactly IS a TeenyB Girl????
Well you will just have to go check it out and find out for yourself!!! Click on the image below to see Ally’s page directly!
This entire month we will update her page with NEW and exciting things. MORE PHOTOS, Screen Savers, Skins and much more. So take a look, but remember to come back too!
We are very excited to say that TeenyB has made the May 2010 issue of Maxim Magazine.
And what better fitting of a month than this! Maxim searched the globe for the sexiest bikinis to shoot in Brazil!
We have no doubt our Brazilian Bikinis are the best!!!
The bikini listed on the cover page, and this following page is from our New Oasis line (located in our B.Couture Department).
The bikini bottoms shot were our #311 – Whaletail Thong Bottom.
Be sure to check out ALL the suits that made the issue on our TeenyB Facebook Fan Page . (Yep, there are many!) In fact, I personally think they could have made an entire issue with OUR suits and still wanted more.
What can I say, our suits are the hottest! *wink*
Why is it so tough to slow down and write a blog post????

You’d think that for someone who has a lot of really great and interesting things going on, it would be MORE than enough to post about on the blog.
After all, this blog is simply a way for me to communicate my progress with the company, whats going on in my life, etc….
Yet, as I sit here trying to encourage myself to write something, I am instead distracted by reading my old posts.
I like to work, but sometimes I can be a total procrastinator!!!
As I have mentioned many times before – I never was one to keep a diary. Hahaha.
In a nutshell, what is new with us:
Sorting and Editing photos of the gorgeous Ally Rivera. You will see her on the front page of our site starting in May!
Finishing up the last of our photo shoots (next two weeks) including a new video project I am super stoked about.
Continuing to put up new products for the Spring!
Enjoying the nice warm weather.
Working hard on getting to 1000 FANS on our Facebook page!
