We had the good fortune of connecting with Kiyah Collins and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kiyah, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
An essential factor behind my success is the fact that I’m authentic and original. I don’t want to be like anyone else and my brand, TopGirl Swim, reflects that through Instagram content, product names, etc.

What should our readers know about your business?
TopGirl Swim has only been in business for 7 months and I’ve established a secure audience, sold out of items, restocked best-sellers, and accomplished so much more. Since launching my business on September 7th I’ve noticed that I process things differently. I’m always thinking about the next step or a solution. Entrepreneurship is all about figuring that sh*t out! I’m excited to expand my brand beyond the basics of swimwear fashion. I’m ready to push the limits in the fashion industry for both women and men. I won’t say too much though, I like to just do it!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
A week in Orlando with Kc

Sunday – Meet up brunch downtown at Mai Thai and then a pool day wearing everything TopGirl Swim!

Monday – Perfect day for a theme park.. all the kids should be in school, virtual or not! Spend the day at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. And yes, you have to get on every ride.

Tuesday – Create memories at The Escape Room Orlando, I love a good challenge plus we can meet new people. After all the fun, we will go to The Ice Bar. It’s a permanent ice bar where one half is a winter wonderland and the other is a fire lounge. Definitely getting some real cute pics for the gram.

Wednesday – It’s been a busy week and a weekend full of going out is near.. time for a pamper day! Reservations at Poseidon Spa for massages, facials, and waxes. Once we feel like the queens we are, get ready to head downtown for Wine Down Wednesday and dinner at Ember.

Thursday – There’s nothing like retail therapy. Spend the day (and a check) at The Florida Mall for new fits. I’ll mix business with pleasure and vlog for my Youtube channel also. Subscribe to Kiyah Collins and become a homegirl!

Friday – Visit Astro Skate during the day, rest, and then get cute again to go to The Beacham at night. Wearing new drip from yesterday, of course.

Saturday – Wrap it up with a beach day on Daytona Beach. Making cute Tik Toks and stopping by the tattoo shop on the beach sounds like fun. If we’re still turned up after a day in the sun, we can hit Gilt for a lit night with Dj Gryo!

*My faves*
The Ice Box, Poseidon Spa, and Ember

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I’d like to dedicate a shoutout to my amazing mother and best friend, Vanessa. Not only is she the prime motivating force in my life but also my greatest support system! Without her, TopGirl Swim wouldn’t be possible. Thank you always, Mommy!
