The SOL CANDY Story

SOL CANDY was created by Lisa Pappanastos to bring that sunny day feeling to anyone, anywhere, regardless of their location.  As a native Floridian, Lisa grew up in her bikini and flip flops, and her best childhood memories took place by the pool or on the beach.  After relocating to Charlotte, North Carolina, she felt like a fish out of water and longed for the laid back fashion and lifestyle of her youth.  So, SOL CANDY was born after an inspiring trip to Tulum, Mexico that brought her back to her roots.  

At SOL CANDY, we carefully curate a selection of unique and fashion-forward brands that make you feel sexy and beautiful on the inside and out. We provide swimwear for the confident woman seeking only the best quality and styles.

We believe that nothing feels sweeter than the sun on your skin, the saltwater in your hair and the sand between your toes. Our products represent a free-spirited, yet sophisticated lifestyle, with a little edge thrown in.  With internationally known and respected brands, such as Guria Beachwear and Monica Hansen Beachwear, to newer designers like Akosha Swim, our styles have been spotted on celebrities and are popping up in the press everywhere. We hope you like what you see.
