Lemon Crush Belize Launch Party

Beauties in Bikinis and Baubles was the theme of the night. Lemon Crush Belize and Moondancer put on a fabulous event. It was a celebration of the ladies of Costa Maya as they put on a fashion show to help support the launch of San Pedro’s Sultry Sweet Lemon Crush Belizep1100897 2009 Luxury Bikini Collection.
(in 2009, 3 years after moving to Belize from “PHL”, Lara Lennon decided it was time. All the elements lined themselves up, and Lara saw the bag of lemons she’d been using to sustain herself had taken root. With both feet firmly planted in her new life and one hand still in her grandmothers jewelry box, Lemon Crush Belize bore some super sophisticated, sexy suits.)

It was an amazing night, and we are so proud of Lara. She was definitely in her element.
Lara Lennon is redefining the swimsuit with her one-of-a-kind creations from her line Lemon Crush Belize. Each piece of Art That You Wear is a fabulous hybrid of the new and the old, defining RIGHT NOW. Start with supremely delicious suits, add in hand selected vintage jewelry, fold in hand made Belizean hardwood boxes for packaging, and you have the recipe for one of the best products you can get out of a bag of lemons; Lemon Crush Belize.
