Summer Inspiration: The Surfer Girl

On this entry for our "Summer Inspiration" series, we are turning the spot sunlight on the Surfer Girl.  Fearless yet fun-loving and ultimately cooler than anyone else, the Surfer Girl exudes a free-spirited vibe with a sunshine-y attitude in life. We can all learn a thing or two from these girls-- riding the waves can't be easy with surfing as is with real life but Surfer Girls know how to just enjoy the whole ride... and to  get back on board when you wipe-out sometimes. 

     

      Inspiration: The surfer girls of Roxy, Billabong, Rip Curl...

No one else can best portray the surf lifestyle other than these girls with radiant smiles, sun-kissed skin and sexy-cool hair waves (and those crazy abs are also worth aspiring to).
