OUR STORY

At 24 she handcrafts each swimsuit in her own studio, blending simplicity, style, and durability into every piece. But the path here wasn’t always so obvious.

After leaving esthetician school with the belief that less is more, Caylee realized that life isn’t about sticking to a script, it’s about designing your own. What started as a love for easy skincare, swimwear and simplicity turned into a passion for creating her own pieces that fit an adventurous lifestyle.

From stitching suits to chasing sunsets, she’s found joy in building something that reflects freedom, fun, and feeling good in your own skin. TheCoastalBum is her way of bringing comfort, confidence, and care to every moment under the sun and for anyone who dares to dream a little bigger.

We believe in slow fashion, conscious choices, and creating pieces that last through every tide.

About our Designs

At The Coastal Bum, every piece is designed with intention, crafted for those who love the ocean, embrace adventure, and value quality over excess. Our swimwear is made to move with you, blending comfort, confidence, and effortless style. Our organic skincare is created to nourish and protect, using natural simple ingredients that care for both your skin and the planet. Each piece of jewelry is one-of-kind, made from shells handpicked along the shore by caylee, carrying the spirit of the sea. Crafted with water resistant stainless steel chains, they're made to weather every tide and adventure with you.

In a world of fast and fleeting trends, The Coastal Bum is about creating pieces that last, timeless essentials made with care. That's why we choose glass bottles for our skincare, reducing plastic waste and keeping our formulas pure without harmful plastic chemicals. This is just the beginning. As new skills are learned and inspiration strikes, more thoughtfully designed pieces will be added to the collection. Because great design isn’t about keeping up, it's about creating something worth holding onto.
