Your Kawaii Island Escape: Galápagos-Inspired Pastels & Prints

A personal diary from the tropics with love

There are places that stay in your heart forever—soft sunsets, salty breezes, warm waves… and for me, the Galápagos Islands became exactly that. I still remember the moment I stepped off the boat, barefoot in the sand, surrounded by colors that felt like they belonged in a dream.

And as a girl who’s obsessed with pastels, ruffles, and all things cute, I couldn’t help but see this wild, natural paradise through the lens of kawaii magic.

 A Pastel Dream in the Wild

From the powder-blue skies over Tortuga Bay to the blush tones of a Galápagos flamingo at Punta Cormorant—this island adventure opened my eyes to a new kind of beauty. It wasn’t loud or flashy. It was soft, natural, and soul-soothing—like a watercolor painting that had come to life.

Inspired by this, I began sketching prints and color palettes during golden hour on the deck, letting nature shape our newest bikini collection. These hues became the heartbeat of Kawaii Memories: Island Escape.

👙Prints With a Purpose: From Wildlife to Wearable Art 


I met a blue-footed booby up close (yes, they’re real and ridiculously cute!), watched lazy sea lions nap in the sun, and followed baby iguanas as they tiptoed across black lava rocks. Each moment made me smile—and each one now lives in our collection as a tiny, joyful detail.

Every print you’ll find in our Island Escape bikinis and wraps is inspired by something I touched, saw, or felt during those dreamy days.

✨ A gentle sea turtle becomes a hand-drawn outline on our sarong.
✨ Sea-glass blues turn into soft swim top shades.
✨ Coral blush, sun-washed sand, and shell-pink stripes? All real colors I soaked in along the shores.

Fashion That Feels Good—For You & the Planet

Traveling to the Galápagos also reminded me of something deeper: this world is fragile. Everything from the way we swim to what we wear touches it. That’s why this collection is made with eco-conscious fabrics—soft on your skin, gentle on the ocean. We’re inspired by nature and want to protect her too.

So when you wear these pieces, you're not just looking cute—you’re part of something meaningful.

📸 A Bikini, A Breeze, A Memory

Sometimes I close my eyes and feel that moment again: standing at the edge of the sea, hair tangled from the wind, sand stuck to my legs, and the softest bikini wrapping me in comfort.

That’s what Kawaii Memories is about.
Creating beautiful little moments—and wearing them close.
