Bejeweled Bathers

- Jen F. Vega -

CEBU, Philippines - As summer takes a bow in June, why not take your last plunge pronto before finally capping the whole season. You know the drill – head on to a resort near you, rent an outrigger for island hopping, call the shots and put in a pool party, then get tossed into the water.

Perhaps at this time, you’ve run out of beachwear for the occasion and you’re caught with the idea of whether getting a new set or reuse that sexy number in your closet. If you opt for the former, then read on to get a good deal.

Bonica Oclarit has a queer mix of swimsuit collection as most beach bums do. Although she gets to purchase a chic beach outing partner during her regular trips to bathers shops, Bonica is saddened by the fact that she sometimes wore the same suit as the others. The desire of owning a striking bikini that no one else has gave birth to B.Jeweled, Bonica’s brainchild for fashionable, luxe swimsuit. She was her own (walking) advertisement that seemed effective as most of her friends loved her creations. Then, Facebook came into the picture that served as her medium in breaking into a wider market. While Bonica got her hands full with designing, creating and selling her produce, juggling school and work, she found a partner in Archt. Jessryn Marie Lim.

B. Jeweled swimwear’s trademark basically circles around embellished and bejeweled eye candy swimsuits, using rhinestone appliqués. “Be it under the sun or moonlight, our clients will surely stand out and shine like jewels in their own right,” quipped the young entrep. A B.Jeweled piece highlights the assets of a woman’s body, accentuating her curves while flaunting her sexiness. Whether you bask under the sun and enjoying the exciting rides in the newly-opened Talima Adventure & Water Park or snorkeling in Nalusuan Marine Sanctuary, you’ll simply look your best in your stylish B.Jeweled. Most of all, no swimsuit is mass-produced.

While Bonica and Jessryn only showcase their products every summer, the versatile B.Jeweled is definitely a gem for off-summer activities such as Hawaiian luau-themed parties and beach wedding receptions. So, grab ‘em for future use! 

Their third collection is currently on display at their Facebook page, Be Jeweled, where interested customers can place their orders or simply e-mail them at bonicacollection @yahoo.com. ?
