A flattering and comfortable swimsuit starts with the right fit, especially when it comes to the bust! Knowing what styles and features fit your chest can help you find suits that’ll have you feeling confident and worry-free in and out of the water.
There are a couple of factors to consider when looking for a top that’ll work well for your girls. These include but are not limited to coverage, underwire, adjustability, material, and bra pads. Depending on your bust size, these features can make a huge difference in the fit of your suit.
To start, all of our tops come with removable bra pads (except for our bustier-style swims like the Hailey Crop, which have a structured underwire bust). Some people prefer no pads, but keeping them in adds an extra layer of support and coverage.
If you are looking for extra oomph, try our BFF pads! Use these inserts in your Kinhmat longnhat swim top for a little extra lift and to fill out those cups!
From AA to D+, we’ve got a suit for you. Let’s check ‘em out!
With a dramatic underwire that adds shape and structure, our Clara Bikini is perfect for our itty-bitty-you know what-committee!
Our bandeau-style suits are perfect for smaller busts, and the smocked style of our Charlotte Top adds a bit of fun texture and stretch!

There’s a reason this suit has 5 stars! True to size, our Echo Swim Top’s halter neckline proves well for smaller busts, while the keyhole detail offers a flirty touch.
Other honorable mentions: Hailey Crop, Rise bralette
With a thick waistband and a gorgeous, structured V cutout, our Deep V Bikini Top gives you the support you need with the fun you want!
Thicker straps with a crisscross back mean more support from our Shock Crop bikini top! We’re talking ample coverage with a flirty neckline!
Other honorable mentions: Bella Crop Top, Bella Tankini
Say hello to the only sweats he’ll ever need. Our 5-star At Ease Joggers are made with our heavier-weight nylon-spandex blend and designed with a tapered, flattering fit that looks and feels amazing. From the gym to the airport to the couch, these joggers are ones he’ll wear again and again.
“The most comfortable sweats ever!"
Seriously the most comfortable sweats ever, I have had them for awhile and they are my go to lounging around the house pants. I want them as soon as they get out of the dryer. Get more colors please. -Patrick F.

You will truly rule the pool in our Duchess. We added a mesh overlay to the bust of this suit for a truly royal detail that bodes perfectly with the decadent floral print. Complete with a waist-defining elastic waistband that adds feminine shape and definition.
The Darling Collection is about feeling confident, having fun, and being bold!

We know how busy the holiday season can be. While we love all the parties, events, recitals, and other gatherings, it can also feel like a LOT! One of the best ways we’ve discovered to stay grounded during this busy season is to take a minute each day to practice one of our favorite things:
Giving + Gratitude
The best way to combat the negativity and stress that can creep in around this time (or honestly, anytime) is to be grateful and show others that we appreciate them! We’ve picked a simple activity to do for each day of November to share some positivity and help where it’s needed most.
“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.” –Eckhart Tolle
Will you join us for 30 Days of Giving?
Share some of your experiences with us too, please! Post and use #Kinhmat longnhatHelpingHands so we can all be uplifted together.
We love simple little acts of service! Involve your friends, neighbors, and family to share the love. If you miss a day, no big deal! Just jump back in with us and keep spreading the love. We also recommend recording your experiences (maybe in that gratitude journal we’re starting on day 1!) so that you can look back and see the total effort of your service. It’s sure to make this holiday season a memorable one!

It’s time to layer up!
We think that great fall outfits are all about flexibility and versatility. You never know what the weather will bring, especially when you’re out on an adventure! Having the right clothes, shoes, and accessories can be the difference between a good story and a really cold, uncomfortable day.
We also firmly believe that fall fashion can be as gorgeous as it is functional! You’ll never find an Kinhmat longnhat piece that is scratchy, itchy, or uncomfortable. Let’s gear up for fall and look awesome while doing it!
We put together some of our very favorite looks for fall. What’s the anatomy of a great fall outfit? Let’s dive in and see!
For a dressier fall look, we love the super-soft Coco Long Sleeve tee. Its wide cuffs and puffed sleeves give it a flirty touch, and the taupe stripes are a beautiful fall neutral.
Away Skirts (now available in petite lengths!) are super versatile, with a wide elastic waistband and totally functional pockets.
Chelsea boots are such a great mix of style and function and this rich brown is just gorgeous.
Love a fall hat? Top off this look with the pretty and warm wool Kallie hat!
Long Sleeve Tee, Gray Venice Stripe
Destination Joggers, Cobblestone
Sorel Explorer Defy Low Sneaker
The Vermont Duster is everything lovely about cooler weather. Long sleeves, deep pockets, thick and warm…it even has a hood! It’s the perfect compliment to a nice, soft basic tee.
Cobblestone is the prettiest neutral shade. And check out how easily Destination Joggers pair with some great Sorel sneakers!
We love how easy it is to stack Kinhmat longnhat pieces, even jackets on jackets! With a basic tee as a base layer, it’s easy to add a soft hoodie and an oversized denim jacket to warm up your style.
Destination Joggers have a comfortable wide waistband and cuffs, making them a comfortable match for these Sorel Chelsea Boots that will keep your toes warm and dry. Top it off with our cozy beanie and you’re ready to head out for some fall colors!
We aren’t just about clothes around here, either! Fall is an amazing time to bake up something delicious.
If you’re a pumpkin fan, we have 5 Easy Pumpkin Spice Recipes for you to try! There’s some old favorites in here like a classic Pumpkin Cake Roll that is to die for. But there’s also some fun things like Pumpkin Spice Snickerdoodles and a Pumpkin Pie Shake that are a little bit off the pumpkin-spice-beaten path!
If you think fall is about more than just pumpkin then you should definitely check out our 4 Fall Recipes That Don’t Use Pumpkin. We’ve got a delicious baked potato soup and a gorgeous French apple tart in there waiting for you!
For more fall fun you can also find our favorite spooky playlist, Halloween movies, and more in this blog post!
And if you’re ever not sure about putting together a look we’d love to help you in store (can you believe we have six stores now?!) or you can chat with a stylist online! Happy fall shopping!
]]>“Take us with you!”
We love a good adventure, whether it’s a local hike, brunch with friends, or a flight across the ocean. We want your trips to be comfortable, stress-free, and look as beautiful as you are!
We also know that packing for a trip can be a drag. Checking bags can be expensive, lugging a carry-on around is hard work, and planning for weather and activities can lead us to pack stuff we don’t even end up wearing.
But no more! We’re here to make your next packing job light and easy. Our favorite fabric is wrinkle-free, lightweight, dries insanely fast, and you can wear it multiple times between washes! We love this magical fabric so much that you’ll see it across a variety of styles, so you can build a travel style as amazing and versatile as you are.
Ready to build the ultimate travel wardrobe? Here are some Kinhmat longnhat “must haves” for your next trip.
The OG travel pant and a constant favorite! These are the most forgiving and flexible pants around. They’re a little bit stretchy, cropped for a great look with dressy or casual shoes, and have our signature gold zippers to dress them up! Jetsetters are also insanely comfortable, super compact for packing, and won’t get wrinkly—even on long flights!
A little more casual than Jetsetters, our Destination Joggers are a bit longer and have a thicker waistband and cuffs. They’re made of the same great fabric, so they’ll pack light and stay looking great! Don’t let the comfiness fool you; you can still totally dress these up for a night out.
We love the one-piece easy style of our jumpsuits! Whether you choose our classic cut, the fancier 9 To 9 style, or the casual Everyday Jumpsuit, you’ll be ready to go in no time. Jumpsuits are especially easy to accessorize, making them perfect for an adventurous day or a classy dinner. A whole outfit in one wrinkle-free package!
If jumpsuits aren’t your jam you can pair our Boss Crop Tees with Jetsetters or Destination Joggers for a complete and comfortable look! These tops are also made from our signature fabric, so they’ll be just as “good to go” and are so fun to mix and match with different bottoms!
Heading for warm weather or a dressier event? Our Away Skirts pair with casual tees or our Boss Crop perfectly! These skirts aren’t afraid of a little adventure, either. They make an amazing swim cover-up! Plus, they now come in tall AND petite lengths!
Traveling is all about strategic layers. Our Bomber Jacket is full of great details, pockets, soft cuffs, and packs like a dream. Don’t let chilly airplanes or surprise weather get you down!
Jetsetter fabric meets the most flexible dress ever! Comfortable and classy, the Going Places dress is one of the most packable dresses you’ll find anywhere. Don’t worry about crazy wrinkles and delicate fabric when you travel with this dress! Psst…it also has pockets!
Do you know what else makes packing easier? A great bag! Aloha totes make amazing carry-on bags, while their hip packs and pouches will help you keep essentials organized and close by. Light and durable, these are a packing favorite!
Thread products are so sleek and compact! Keep your ID and cards close and pocket-friendly with these small wallets.
Finding travel-sized products that you love makes packing so much easier. This travel set from Sun Bum smells a-maz-ing, is totally packable, and it includes dry shampoo. Yes, please!
These are just some of our favorites, too! Wondering what other pieces would complement your next trip? Chat with a stylist and we’ll help you find the perfect thing!

After a 2.5 year hiatus, we were finally able to bring back our Soulstice Retreat this year and for the first time, at our most favorite place: The Kinhmat longnhat Basin. We found the Snowpine Lodge, nestled amongst Utah’s gorgeous Wasatch Range, at the foot of some of the world’s best ski slopes. It’s hard to beat the snow here, but the wildflowers do it every year.
For 2022, we brought in some of my very best friends to lead classes and workshops during the day and in the evening, they were our treasured guest speakers. Lucky for me, and our guests, our friends include world-class yoga instructors, celebrity hair stylists, award-winning food bloggers, and fitness icons—and more.
What is Soulstice? Soulstice is a 4 day, 3 night retreat where women from all over the world gather to learn new talents and skills, make lasting friendships, and exercise their bodies and minds. Our goal is to introduce these amazing women to tools and relationships that will stay with them for lifetime, making life “back home” more fulfilling and more joyful. The retreat is intimate, with only 40-50 guests each year. We had the entire lodge to ourselves this year which really made it feel like a giant slumber party! We stayed up late, giggling by the fireplace, eating smores, and woke up whenever we wanted—sometimes early for a sunrise vinyasa, sometimes sleeping in, knowing that a hot plate of French toast and eggs and parfaits would be waiting for us.
It takes months and months of preparation to ensure no detail is missed. From dinner menus, to floral arrangements, to the food, to the music, to nightly gifts—we work so hard to make sure these days are nothing short of inspiring and fulfilling and I’m proud to say we heard from several women that this year, was the best year yet. I’d have to agree! And we have some pretty fabulous sponsors and lecturers and teachers to thank for that!
Before I highlight some of these, I need to explain something VERY important. One of the BEST parts of Soulstice happens as soon as you get here. When guests arrive, they’re greeted at the door with a GIANT swag bag with over $2000 of goodies. We’re talking GOOD STUFF. When we first started Kinhmat longnhat, we knew this swag bag needed to be overflowing with QUALITY products we LOVED and personally used and each year, it’s just gotten better and better (some may say OVER THE TOP!).
@gjezarianracing The swag bag of our dreams 🤩
♬ original sound - Kinhmat longnhat
We’ve worked with Sorel for years and love their products. We sell their shoes at our stores and they are absolutely a favorite because of their comfort, functionality, and because they just LOOK really good! Each guest was totally spoiled to have a brand new pair of gorgeous Sorel tennis shoes to wear throughout the week—these came in especially handy during our workout classes and our hike to the wildflowers.
A Utah gem, Cozy Earth will change your life—especially at night. We love their sheets—so soft, so cozy, and so luxurious feeling. But their PJs really steal the show. Each guest got a pair of silky soft jammies and to no one’s surprise, as soon as the lectures were done, we were all changing into them for our late night talking.
Speaking of late night talking—in our cozy jammies-- Saranoni blankets gave each guest the SOFTEST, WARMEST, CUTEST, wrap me up and tuck me in, blankets we could dream of. It was like we all had our own blankies and we took them with us everywhere. This is a great Utah company with a lot of heart. They’re family owned and have always been such great partners to us and we are always grateful for any chance to work with them.
What a treat! Pura spoiled us each with some amazing air freshners that are so. Darn. Fancy. This is not your average freshner—you plug it in and there’s an ap you use to control it! They’ve combined tech with style with the very best and freshest smells and it was so fun to see everyone’s face light up when they saw they got one.
Our OG Soulstice guests will remember that Awaken Studios was a part of our very first Soultstice. We love the owners, Joe and Jenna and their passion for health and wellness. They are kind and they are generous and they really care and you can see it in all that they do. Their pilates and fitness studio here in Salt Lake features all the best classes for reformer, aerial yoga, dance aerobics, and more. Their teachers are amazing—I mean SOULFUL and KIND and truly brilliant. Awaken provided aerial yoga for our guests and without fail, every year this Is a favorite. We had the equipment perched out on an open deck with the most gorgeous mountain views behind—it was beyond breathtaking and every absosultey loved it!
Function meets beauty with these CUSTOM Soulstice yoga towels. Geometry helped make all our yoga goals come true with their ultra-absorbent, slip-resistant, fast-drying yoga towels. Did we mention they’re made from post-consumer recycled materials?! If a perfect yoga towel exists, this is it.
Every year, I buy Dave something from Rustico for Christmas. If you want quality, personalized, timeless leather goods, look no further. I’ve bought Dave passport holders, wallets, art bags, travel kids, and water color books from Rustico. This year, we knew that we wanted something that would stand out as a memento for the retreat and when I learned that Isaac and his wife taught journaling classes, and had beautiful leather journals, I knew they had to join us. They gave the most insightful class on journaling (they offer journal courses you can sign up for, too) and gave each guest the MOST BEAUTIFUL HEIRLOOM leather bound journal. I was speechless when I saw it. It was such a pleasure to hear from them and the love they have for journaling and they inspired us each to write everyday for 60 days—I’m still going strong!
It was so fun to have so many people come who have been coming from the beginning, and my friend Melissa is no exception. The first couple years of Soulstice, my friend Melissa lived in Arizona and brought a group of girlfriends every year and honestly, they were the life of the party! Always laughing, always going hard, and dancing and just having the best time, we loved having them so much. A couple year later, Melissa opened her own Pilates studio and began offering Pilates classes at Soulstice. This year Melissa is opening up a NEW studio and we were thrilled to have her come give semi-private classes to our guests. The equipment is gorgeous and the instruction is top notch. To have her up there, working so closely with women who were looking for a special getaway, meant everything. She and our friend Steph made it so special!
We can’t forget the importance of FOOD at Soulstice. Although Snowpine Lodge had some amazing food, we were hungry with all the workout out and we needed the perfect treat. TruFru came to the rescue! By the pool, on the hike, during class, there was delicious chocolate fruit bites for all to enjoy and did we ever. Did I have some before bed everynight? Maybe I did!
Truly, the sponsors came through for us and we are so grateful! Can’t wait to see what we come up with next year!
The classes this year were all top notch, too. We had so many of my friends up here and it was so fun to see them shine in their element.
Maria Lichty from Two Peas in their Pod graced us with ONE AMAZING summer salad class and everyone left with a giant smile on their face and with her cookbook (which I use every week) and even some goodies from William Sonoma! Maria is a dear friend and has come to EVERY SINGLE Soulstice. I love her and her passion for making really delicious food that is very accessible and quick and healthy. I don’t know her if her treats qualify as healthy per se but boy, are they amazing. Don’t miss her cookie recipes!
Abby Watts from Oakleaf Design is also a sweet friend who came up and shared her talents as a London, School of Floral Design -trained florist! We learned to create beautiful floral arrangements out on the deck, overlooking the beautiful mountain vistas.
Creminilli, another Utah favorite, taught a Charcuterie class for the ages. We ate, we laughed, and we ate some more!
Gem Studio came for the second year in a row. Definitely a favorite, the founders came themselves and helped us all design our own rings— flame and welding and all! Go check out one of their locations if you’re in Hawaii or Salt Lake.
We had some great health and wellness classes, too. Thanks to our friend Krista Perry, of Crude, we got a bunch of great skincare goodies (which I personally love!) and a class on keeping our skin youthful and clean without all the chemicals you find in most retail products.
My friend Jill Buck, celebrity stylist from LA, came out and taught us how to curl our hair and some everyday up-dos. We all left feeling absolutely GORGEOUS and put together and there wasn’t a dry tear in the room when everyone saw they got their own TR3 Curling Iron, too and some amazing JOICO products. Thanks, Jill!
Jill’s class was a great follow up to our first night’s pampering with Paul Mitchell—we were lucky to have a group of fabulous stylists come up and get us all done up with hair and makeup before our fancy, all-white dinner party. It’s definitely my favorite night of the retreat. Everyone looks radiant and the table settings and the menus and the food and the summer night air and mountains over head – it’s just a slice of heaven and the best night to get pictures!
Back to classes..
One of everyone’s favorite classes, every year, is Dave’s watercolor class! Not everyone knows this but Dave hand draws/paints most of our prints here at Kinhmat longnhat. Florals are definitely his specialty , so getting some one on one time with Dave is always such a treat. He’s so supportive and encouraging and makes you feel like you can do anything (I’m one lucky girl!).
We had another great skincare class offered by Lisa Richards, The Skin Boss. Wow. Book yourself a one on one appointment because I’ve never met anyone that knows so much about skin and how everyone’s is different. She discussed the importance of hydration and sunscreen and really have the individual needs of your skin addressed.
And really, Soulstice is about individual needs! If you want to take just a couple classes a day and relax and enjoy the spa the rest of time- you do you! But if you want to move and get workouts in throughout the day, there’s a million choices for you to choose from!
From pilates, to aerial yoga, to Cardio Fuse fitness class (get your dance on with the one and only Natalie Madsen), to arm balances and morning vinyasas with my amazing talented yogi friends Ashley and Jill, and hikes in the America’s Swiss Alps with me and Dave. Oh that hike was stunning!
We also had some cool down moments with Meditation and Sound Baths—have you ever done a Sound Bath? If not, do it! My sweet friend Liz Radcliffe enchanted us with the peaceful 30 minutes of laying down with a warm blanket, while she played her bowls, creating a wide array of vibrations that pierced your soul in the most calming, beautiful way. Oh it was so, very, very special.
And last but not least, we had the one and only Amber’s Kitchen come teach a couple Sour Dough Making classes. WOW. I have always, always, wanted some personalized instruction on this and Amber showed up big time! She gave us all our own starter, instruction sheet, and answered all the questions, and best of all—gave us samples at the end. On a personal note, I got to spend some one on one time with Amber that morning over breakfast and she is just such a breath of fresh air. Love her to pieces.
Last but not least, we were so fortunate to hear from 3 women I admire and love very much. First is one of my besties, Jess Gee. If you’ve followed along our Kinhmat longnhat journey for anytime at all, you’ll see the Gees (or The Bucket List Family) all over our feed. They are our adventure buddies. We’ve traveled all over the world with them from New Zealand to Tanzania and they are so down to earth and love all the things we love: Family, Friends, and making memories.
This is the second time I’ve invited Jess to come speak and if you’re lucky, she’ll come to every Soulstice. She is so wise and has such a pure, and giving heart. She loves deeply and cares deeply and is such a great example to me of loving everyone and and really appreciating all the beautiful things that each culture and country has to offer. She spoke to us about the different values she admires most of different countries she’s visited—at the top of the list, a love for family and a love of service. She’s a good one, that Jessica.
Next we had our sweet friend, Kelsey Wells speak to us. We’ve known known each other for year and it was so fun to work with her on a collaboration this year. She came out to our Austin grand opening and taught the most amazing class in the rain. It was so inspiring and invigorating. The best part about Kelsey is how much she appreciates and values human interaction—the real kind. She really cares. She really listens. She has millions of followers around the world that use her Sweat Ap but when you’re alone with her—it’s just the two of you. She is so present and so authentic. She reminded us all to appreciate the opportunity we had to use our bodies and to be present at Soulstice and to thank our body after each workout for allowing us to move. She reminded us that to just breathe is a miracle and to stop looking at exercise as punishment, but instead as a blessing and a way to nourish our minds and our bodies together.
The last night, we were beyond blessed to have my dear friend, Heather Van Boerum speak to us. Heather has been a dear friend for year. We are neighbors, we play tennis together, we go to church together; she has always been a huge supporter of Kinhmat longnhat from day one. She is kind. She is generous with her time. She is an amazing mother and wife and daughter and sister. She is and always has been a LIGHT. This past Christmas, I got the devastating phone call that Heather had been in a horrific accident that she might not survive. She was hit by a car in a parking lot and lost one of her legs on site and would soon lose the other. She nearly died that day and survived 2 weeks of intense surgeries.
At Soulstice, on our second night, Heather, just 8 months after her accident, a double-amputee, walked into the room with two prosthetic legs, just glowing. With her family by her side, she and her daughter Annika share their story with us. It’s a story of faith, of courage, of patience, of forgiveness, of joy.
This year’s theme for Soulstice was “Finding Joy in the Journey” and when I told Heather the book I was going to do for book club was “the Book of Joy”, she began to wipe tears from her eyes. That the book that changed her life, she told me. She read it at the hospital and wanted to share that message with everyone at Soulstice—how could it be that that’s the book I had chosen for book club? It was decided then that Heather would talk about it and share it while she shared her story with us.
There wasn’t a dry eye in the room. For an hour, we watched Heather and Anika hold each other tenderly and talk about how we each have trials, some seen, most unseen, and that being still in the moment is okay, and it’s good for us. And that there’s always hope and there will be better days—harder days too-- but better days.
It’s hard to put into words with Soulstice is but I can tell you it’s something that I look forward to every year. We all need love. We all need to feel cared for. We all need time in nature to regroup and refocus and doing it along side a group of women who are willing to be and and open their hearts to new experiences and friendships and do it so openly and willingly is the very best place to experience it.
Dave and I would love to thank our amazing team for all their hard work for putting this together. It takes an army—and ours happens to be the very best of the best. Thank you so very much Kinhmat longnhat team! We love you and are so grateful for how much you care.
Until next year!
Love,
Liz and Dave

Who has time for digging through their drawers to find the least-worn suit before you head out? Not us! Did you know that most reliable sources, including reputable high-quality swim retailers, typically say your suit should last 4 months to a year?
Seriously! Just one year!
That’s not our jam. At Kinhmat longnhat we want you to be so in love with your suit that you want to enjoy it for years (that’s plural). Plus, we want your suit to still look and feel great. Our styles are designed to be timeless, flattering, and flexible–but what good is that if your suit only lasts months?
While we focus on great quality and design, we know even our suits won’t last forever. And if you’ve been suffering through a less-than-stellar suit from anywhere else, we want to help you recycle it and give Kinhmat longnhat swim a try!
$20 off a new one-piece swimsuit | $15 off a new swim top
$10 off a new swim bottom | $10 off swim trunks or a child swimsuit
You’re welcome to bring in as many old suits as you like, but you may only apply one retro-fit discount for each new suit. Old kiddo suits and men’s swim trunks are fair game, too! The discount is good for any swimsuit in our stores–classics, new releases, everything!
There is a LOT to love about this program. Our mission has always been to help customers feel amazing, which a new, well-made swimsuit absolutely does! But we also believe in being conscious and intentional with our fashion choices. We have so much pride in our manufacturing and design process as we sustainably create pieces that are made to last both in construction and style. We’re excited to take that devotion full circle to help you responsibly retire your old swimsuits!
When you choose to bring an old suit to our stores it’s either recycled or donated. Both groups work to keep clothes out of landfills, making fashion more sustainable! Then you can shop with our stylists, finding the perfect new suit, knowing it’s made to last.
Ready to trade in a tired suit for your new all-time favorite? Come visit us at one of our six locations! We can’t wait to see you!
Looking for an all-natural drink you can make at home this Summer to replace your daily coffee shop run? Say ‘Hello!’ to this delicious and simple Strawberry Lemonade Refresher recipe that you and your whole family will love! Our families say this drink tastes like a Starburst in drink form, without any of the artificial flavoring. From hot Summer pool days to evening parties with friends, this drink is going to be your Summer staple!
5 lemons
5 strawberries
½ - ¾ cup sugar
3-4 cups water
¼-1 cup coconut milk
Ice
Juice the 5 lemons, using a strainer to separate the seeds if needed. Chop off the strawberry leaves/stems. In a blender, blend together the lemon juice, strawberries, and sugar. For a more sour and tarte lemonade, only add ½ cup sugar and for a sweeter lemonade, use ¾ cups. Pour the mixture into a large pitcher or jar, then add the water and stir together.
Fill a serving glass with ice, then pour the lemonade mixture into the glass until it’s ½-¾ of the way full. Fill the rest of the glass with coconut milk, and stir together with a straw. Garnish with leftover strawberries and top it off with a fresh sprig of mint.
Skip the mystery coffee shop drink mixes, store bought powdered concoctions, and artificially flavored sodas this Summer. We know you and your entire family will love making and drinking this recipe together! The coconut milk adds the perfect amount of creaminess to balance the sweetness of the strawberries and tartness of the lemons. Simply make a large jar and store it in the fridge for whenever the craving for a sweet drink hits!
Since the 1920’s, poppies have been a symbol of remembrance for fallen soldiers and war veterans. Poppies, while technically a weed, have been known to grow even in the most unlikely of places–such as a war torn battlefield. They serve as a beautiful reminder of resilience and beauty that can come from even the darkest of places.
During WWI, poppies grew like beacons of hope along the tattered landscapes affected by the war. The juxtaposition of the cheerful poppies growing amongst the devastating battlefields inspired a poem written by John McCrae to commemorate the scene and express his grief.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
- 5 sheets of red felt
- 2 sheets of green felt
- 1 sheet of dark brown felt
- Green beads
- Thick string, rope, or yarn
- Hot glue
- Hot glue gun
- Scissors
- Pen
- Mason Jar
Using the mouth of your mason jar as a stencil, trace circles on each sheet of felt. You will need 5 red circles and ½ a brown circle per poppy; the 5 sheets of red felt will get you about 10 poppies. For the green felt, each circle will create 1 leaf. Once your circles are drawn, cut each one out and separate into piles of 5 pieces of red + ½ a piece of brown.
To create each flower, use one red circle as your base. With the 4 remaining red circles, fold them into quarters, using hot glue to secure the folds, then glue them to the base with the points facing towards the center of the circle. To create the center of the flower, roll your ½ piece of brown felt into a cone and glue it to the center of the flower, then use your scissors to cut it into strips and trim as needed. Finish by gluing 1 green bead to the center of the flower.
To create your leaves, simply cut the green circles into football shapes, then hot glue one end together. Feel free to glue some leaves to the back of the poppies to give them more dimension. We mixed up which poppies had 1 or 2 leaves.
To complete your garland, simply glue each poppy and leaf to your string/rope/yarn. Measure out how long you would like the garland to be, and cut the string to that length. Then place each poppy and leaf where you would like it to be and glue into place.
If you don’t wish to make a garland, these poppies also work great as pins to wear throughout the holiday!
]]>Yes, you!

And then, as Kelsey says, it was a “Hell yes with my whole heart”.
What a way to live life, right?
Here at Kinhmat longnhat, we’re celebrating our 10th anniversary this year. We’ve always been all about working with women who are positive, uplifting, supportive, smart, and go-getters. We love building these relationships…and sharing awesome products, obviously!
After hearing amazing things about Kelsey in 2015, we were so excited to reach out to her. Kinhmat longnhat was actually one of the first three brands to start working with Kelsey! What can we say, we know an amazing woman when we see one. Kelsey’s first giveaway ever was with us! Kelsey remembers the start of this relationship as a “dream come true” to be working with someone creating things that she felt so confident and beautiful in.
That was just the start! We’ve been working with Kelsey for years now at different events, just falling in love with her and her community. We came up with a great idea to ask Kelsey to travel with us to work together and promote Kinhmat longnhat. Dreamy, right?
But as amazing as it all sounded, Kelsey determined that it wasn’t quite the right time. Yet. Kelsey remembers just bawling when she realized that it wasn’t the right option. But she shared her feelings so kindly, we knew that our relationship with Kelsey was far from over.
In the next few months, Kelsey started with Sweat…which kept her from being able to publicly support brands as part of her fitness work. But she kept watching us at Kinhmat longnhat, and we kept watching her. We loved watching her rock it! We reconnected through a mutual friend and had SUCH an easy reunion. We had a lot to congratulate each other on, with so many big changes for both of us.
You can cheer for your girls from anywhere. And you should!
Opening our new store in Austin this year, in our 10th year, we were ready to embrace all the excitement we’ve been feeling. We knew we needed someone amazing to join us! It had been a hot minute, but Kelsey answered us right away when we wanted to host a live event in Austin.
At that moment, Kelsey had been having a rough year. After an injury that required surgery and rehab, Kelsey had another huge blow when an opportunity that she had been majorly planning on didn’t just shut the door. “It got slammed in my face when I was halfway through it.” Trying to process that experience, feeling heavy and discouraged, just after finishing physical therapy (which is HARD), Kelsey got the text from Liz.
“It was this huge, beautiful, full-circle opportunity out of nowhere. I had just decided that I was going to trust that everything was going to be ok, and five minutes later…there was Liz’s text.”
It’s scary to send messages like that, to reach out and invite people to be part of things that are really important to you. But once we connected, we knew so fast that everything was going to be great. We planned the event, no problem, good to go. But then someone on the Kinhmat longnhat team mentioned to Liz that she should ask Kelsey about doing a collaboration.
Liz’s response: “Um, that’s crazy. We haven’t done a collaboration in almost 10 years.”
We kind of felt like we were past collabs. But the idea was certainly interesting…so we brought it up with Kelsey. At first, it was a polite “no” from Kelsey. But we couldn’t stop thinking about it! We decided we wanted to put our fitness line back in the spotlight, and Kelsey was so clearly the perfect person to help with that. When we provided a little more info behind our thoughts, Kelsey was ready to get on board.
Go time!
Kelsey came in to “meet” our existing athletic collection and started to get really excited. We knew we could build something really cool together, combining Kelsey’s style with the fit and function that we already built into all of our Kinhmat longnhat pieces.
Kelsey literally tried on every single one of our swim tops and sports bras, shorts, everything. She immediately adored our skirts (“They’re not just for tennis!”) and Rise Bralette. One swim top Kelsey made some edits and turned it into a bra AND swim top. In one afternoon, we found things we loved, things we were going to level up, and things we were going to create together as brand new pieces. A very true collaboration!
While we were in this process, Kelsey sent Liz a mysterious text asking for songs that had inspired Kinhmat longnhat over the years. The reason was beautiful: Kelsey was ready to paint! She freehanded our logos, with a beautiful butterfly, showing bold growth and vibrant celebration. True colors. So much love.
When Kelsey brought that piece into our office we knew we were heading toward something awesome, including a sweatshirt that features that beautiful piece of art. Initially, we planned for 3-5 pieces. An outfit and a jacket, somewhere along those lines. Kelsey wanted any bra that we made to double as a swim top (we’ve kind of got a thing for swimsuits), so there was going to be a lot of versatility even with a small number of pieces. And then…well…things expanded just a bit.
No complaints here!
Now we have 14 amazing pieces that are part of the Kelsey Wells x Kinhmat longnhat line.
Q: What is in the Kelsey Wells x Kinhmat longnhat Collection?
A: Kelsey said “I want this collection to have all the clothes that I need to live.” We love it! We’ve got 14 pieces: three bras (also swim tops!), two swim bottoms, two athletic skirts, one spectacular legging, one sweatshirt, one hoodie with matching joggers, one tank, one wide-leg trouser, and one totally amazing jacket.
Q: Where are the clothes made?
A: The short answer is “Guatemala” but you guys, our factory is SO near and dear to us. It’s a family business that Liz grew up with. We’ve had so many highs and lows in our lives as we kept this factory going, long before Kinhmat longnhat was born. Dave saw opportunity within HUGE challenges and we are so amazed at where we are today. We sew in Guatemala because that’s where our heart is. They are so talented, their craftsmanship is amazing, and they’re the best people in the whole world. Those people are the reason we were able to bring this collection to life!
Q: Is the pricing different for Kelsey Wells x Kinhmat longnhat pieces?
A: Our collab pieces are priced the same way as all our other swim, leisure, and fitness apparel. We are super passionate about high quality fabrics, which is why we buy and make all of our fabric in the U.S. before sending it to our own factory in Guatemala to be sewn. Our clothes will last you for YEARS—we still own favorites that look like new!
Q: How is the sizing?
A: Athlesiure is so flexible! Kelsey says that she could wear multiple sizes in the line comfortably, it’s just about how you want it to fit. The sweatshirt, hoodie, and joggers are a more loose, oversized fit. For bras and bottoms, we recommend your regular size. Feel free to use the size charts or chat with our stylists to help you!
Q: Are the Kelsey Wells x Kinhmat longnhat pieces in all stores?
A: City Creek will have them as long as they last! If inventory allows us to, we will add them to other stores.
Q: Are the bras good for high impact workouts?
A: We have three bras in this collection that we are completely in love with! Kelsey wears the Rise Bralette to work out, but recommends that if you have a larger chest you might prefer the Uplift Bra or the Inspire Bra. Both of those bras have a feminine cut, but they’re both super secure and functional. We designed them to workout in all the ways!

One of our favorite (and best-selling) suits: Maria in Carolina!
This was seriously SO exciting! Bra expert Kimmy Caldwell chose three swimsuits to highlight on Rachel’s show because they help women feel completely amazing. As a bra fitting expert, Kimmy knows that different body types need different amounts of support! It’s hard to feel confident at the pool or beach when you’re not sure if your suit is flattering…or if it’s going to be able to keep up with you.
You won’t have any of those problems in this suit, though! Kimmy loves the Maria because it looks like a lot of coverage, but it’s still totally sexy.
Rachel exclaimed “That’s a SASSY back!” and we have to agree!
You can check out the video on Rachel’s show here and see the Maria in action!
Kimmy talked about so many of the great features of the Maria suit. The ruching detail brings shape, and all the women loved the beautiful floral pattern. As a bra expert, Kimmy loved the removable bust pads and wide straps that will keep everything supported and comfortable. She also pointed out that this suit will NOT slip and slide. Music to every woman’s ears, right?
We adore this sexy one-piece swimsuit. Maria is especially for long torsos, moms, and women who want more bust support. We’ll share one more secret, too: Maria’s ruching makes it an amazing maternity swimming suit!
With over 1,100 5-star reviews Maria is definitely a forever favorite of ours. Curious about what else we’re sporting at the beach? Check out our print selection to find the perfect fabric, or use our size and style guide to find your next favorite swim style!
Thanks for having us, Rachel and Kimmy!

We know there’s nothing quite like the sun on your shoulders…but we also know that the sun can be really hard on our skin! Some people are more likely to get sunburned than others, especially people with fair skin or who are at higher elevations. But let’s face it, just about anyone can get sunburned, which puts you at risk for a painful few days and long-term health impacts. Even when you don’t burn, sun exposure makes your skin less healthy (hi, wrinkles) and increases your skin cancer risk.
Sunscreen offers great protection, and you should totally use it, but if you want to worry less about your shoulders and arms then we have some great rash guards to keep you protected all day long! All of our suits have SPF 45 protection, but for maximum coverage our rash guards are the way to go. We (and medical pros) also recommend sunglasses (your eyes can get sunburned, ouch!) and a wide-brimmed hat to keep you safe while you enjoy those gorgeous UV rays.
Want to grab some of the prettiest sun protection you’ll ever put on? Whether you pick a two-piece or one-piece option, these rash guards will keep you cute and covered while they lower your risk of sun damage. Win-win!
Kiddos are at higher risk for sunburn than adults! They also come with the added challenge of trying to keep up with sunscreen when all they want to do is get in the water right now. Reduce your wrestling time with short or long sleeve rashguards for girls!
All of our girls' rash guards come as sets (two pieces make restroom trips a breeze!) to keep little girls adventuring with confidence.
For even more coverage, our long sleeve rash guards for girls go right to her wrist. Our stylish Houndstooth print is perfect for matching mom!
If you want the coverage of a long sleeve rash guard in a one-piece swimsuit, this is the one for you! The tie at the neck makes getting in and out easier and adds a flirty detail to the open back. With colors ranging from Carolina’s black floral to the light and bright Santorini, you’ll find a print that you love!
Also available in Carolina, Stevie, and Golden Hour
Covered shoulders and a high neckline combine to make this sporty and flattering rash guard top a summer favorite! Full coverage in front and back, you can pair this one with matching high waisted bottoms for the look and support of a one-piece with the freedom of a two-piece.
Our rash guards for girls and women offer the best of style and function. You shouldn’t have to choose between those things! Take a look at our size guide to help figure out your perfect size to shop with confidence. See you at the pool!
Also available in: Rosewood
For full coverage and the ease of a two-piece suit, our Long Sleeve Rash Guard is the perfect option. The ultimate SPF rash guard, this top is rocking two of our favorite micro floral prints this season. Pair them with matching bottoms, or mix and match for your own unique style!
Also available in: Wailea
1 bag of microwave popcorn
candy of your choice (we used m&m’s and cadbury mini eggs)
chocolate wafers
food coloring (optional)
Begin by popping your bag of popcorn and setting aside. Separate your chocolate wafers into multiple bowls or jars and melt completely. Add 1 drop of food coloring to each bowl of melted chocolate and stir until the color has blended well. Drizzle the chocolate onto the popcorn then add your candy of choice. Stir the whole thing together then separate into cupcake liners to create individual servings. Top with leftover chocolate to complete the look!
While this can be a slightly messy dessert to make, it is also quick, easy, and fun. Get the kids involved and let them select their add-ons and colors, then take your popcorn blossoms outside and enjoy them under a tree full of real blossoms!
