4 Ways to Embody the Aloha Spirit

https://sanlorenzohawaii.com/products/aloha-surf-aracea-lace-up-surf-suit

Aloha is more than just a word. 

It is a way of living deeply rooted in Hawaiian culture. To experience Aloha, is to experience life.

When you embrace the aloha spirit, you become aligned with yourself and the spirit of others.

To understand Aloha, you must seek to understand Hawaiian culture.

Here are 4 ways you can embody the Aloha Spirit:

  • Spread kindness in the world, treat others with respect. 
  • See the good in people and value your traditions and culture.
  • Malama ‘Aina. Protect and appreciate the earth’s natural beauty. 
  • Be grateful and give thanks for what you have. Be open to adventures, new people and different experiences. 

“Aloha Surf embraces the spirit of Aloha, welcoming botanicals with deep leafy greens color, inviting turquoise blue of the ocean. Aloha Surf brings attention to the beautiful colors and prints found all around the Hawaiian Islands.”

In our stunning new Aloha Surf collection, we wanted to showcase the essence of Hawaii, with the quality of our prints, design and styles.

We did this by:

  • Using fabrics that are kind to our planet
  • Creating them with love, quality and intention to compliment all Wahine body shapes 
  • Using colors and prints inspired by the ‘Aina

We were honored to be featured alongside some of our favorite creative island girls. The model for this shoot was our very own Anabel Carriker, the daughter of our head designer. Anabel has been involved with her mother’s company since she was just a little girl and has now begun helping her mom, coming up with fresh new ideas and styles that she feels the newer generations will love. Check out her interview below along with some more photos from the shoot!

Meet the Teen Designer out of Hawaii, taking over San Lorenzo Bikinis

Meet Anabel Carriker, a rising teen designer taking over the next realm of design for San Lorenzo Bikinis. She’s learned the best from her mom, Lisseth Figueroa, the founder, and designer of the swimwear brand started out of Honolulu in 2006. Anabel has been around bikinis and the business of fashion since she was born, and she’s ready to pave the way for the next era of the company.

As a now 14-year-old eighth grader attending Mid Pacific Institute in Honolulu, she’s sketching and creating her own collections, bringing her unique style of expression through her generation and helping her mom design. One of her main focuses is being comfortable – she loves surfing, water polo and being active. She believes in comfortable yet exclusive and unique swimwear.

Anabel wears the Bralette High Waist set in Black Olive – from our sustainable RETRO collection.

What makes your style different from your Mom’s?

I’m still a kid, so I’m a bit more creative than my mom, in the sense of wild prints and such. She loves the minimalist look which I love too, but she loves the tiny strings.

What do you like most about designing and what inspires you?

My mom, and I love to be able to do it with my family as whole – the business as family together. I am also inspired by making girls feel comfortable – making bikinis that girls feel comfortable in, have fun in, and not worry about their bikini coming off.

Anabel wears the Retro V-Thong set in 70s Geo – from our sustainable RETRO collection.

Do you want to take over the business entirely one day?

Yes, but I still would always want my mom by my side.

What is your advice for other young teens who want to express themselves through art or design?
It should be something they are passionate about and feel confident doing, they don’t have to be scared to be creative.

How do you see the future of bikinis in the new world of fashion?

I think it’s gonna come back to circle what fashion used to be in the world. A continuous circle, almost like the circle of life.

Summer Beach Clean Up

San Lorenzo Bikinis, along with @projectmermaids and @proteazerowaste, hosted a beach clean up in August to help conserve and clean up our island oceans. We had over 100 sign ups!

This was our fourth beach clean up this year, and we can’t wait to host more. Live sustainably and keep our beaches clean!

SLB Annual Boat Party

We had the best company party (pre-Covid of course) and we can’t wait to do it again this year! The Dolphins & You Tour out of Waianae Harbor, Oahu, was the perfect option!! Who’s ready for parties again!?

It was a warm and sunny December Saturday in Hawaii (Hawaii winters are the best!!)  30+ team-members from both our Oahu HQ and stores all met at the Waianae boat harbor, ready to relax and soak up the sun on the ‘Dolphins and You’ catamaran.  

Can you spot all the different bikini collections in this group photo?!

The waters were crystal clear, and we were all hopeful for some dolphin sightings. When the time came to jump in the water, fins and life vets in tow, we took the captain’s direction on where to swim out.  Sure enough, we spotted several beautiful dolphin pods.  

Here’s some of the team in our Mar Azul collection:

‘Blue Reef’ print was obviously a favorite! Should we bring this print back?

Thank you to the whole boat crew, we can’t wait to do it again! Visiting Oahu? Check out the link to book a dolphin tour for your crew! https://andyoucreations.com
