Bikinibird began in 2010 as a shared vision between friends Ally Lopez and Tiana Gamble. The blog was a space to capture the style, travels, and obsessions that shaped their world. Part digital diary, part mood board for a life well-traveled, it quickly drew tens of thousands of followers eager to live that sun-soaked fantasy. From Miami Swim Week to coastal showrooms around the globe, the journey inspired a bold next step.

In 2017, Tiana moved Bikinibird from screen to street, opening its first boutique in Kailua. The space brought the brand’s signature edit to life — designer swim and resortwear, hard-to-find labels, and exclusives you couldn’t score anywhere else. More than a store, it became a destination: a place for events, collaborations, and the kind of spontaneous connections that turn shopping into a story worth telling.
