This new local swimwear collection is all the buzz. 

If honeybees are the busybodies of nature, consider yourself the busybody of the beach (and pool) this spring + summer via Raleigh-based Voglia Swimwear’s recently launched Oh, Honey collection. Yes, queen! … In collab with local Wood Underwear, the couple’s line (the men’s pieces dubbed Wet Wood) honors the yellow- and black-striped flying insects as part of the swimwear brand’s sustainable MO of serving and taking care of the planet, with proceeds from each suit benefiting local beekeepers. “I always say, ‘We own nothing,’” says Voglia founder Ashley-Victoria Smith. “‘Everything we have we are simply borrowing from Mama Earth, and it’s our duty and responsibility to take care of her as she’s taken care of us.’” Adding to the buzz, all of Voglia’s garments are made from regenerated nylon, eco-friendly inks and biodegradable packaging—and never any one-time-use plastics. “Ooh, honey, got me hooked on you…” vogliaswim.com
