Kim Kardashian’s pal Nikki Lund shows off her curves in a string bikini

Nikki Lund grew up with her best pals Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton in Los Angeles.

And while Kim and Paris signed up for reality TV shows, Nikki has taken her time to nourish her singing career which has resulted in the hit tracks This Is It and U & I as Bon Jovi’s Richie Sambora often served as mentor.

But on Wednesday the pinup – also a fashion designer whose styles have popped up in Vogue magazine this month – took a break from the recording studio to splash around on the beach in Malibu.

The blonde beauty looked at home on the shore as she wore a pale brown strappy swimsuit that revealed a very toned tummy.

The Street actress looked to already have a deep California tan as she splashed around.

Nikki launched her music career in 2018 with the hit songs Love Overdose and This Is It after already establishing a well-received fashion line.

She told Better Days she was hopeful for a fresh start.

‘It was the hope for better days ahead. I think that there is a lot of positive change for women that has happened in the past year as far as the #metoo movement,’ she has said. 

‘Also, it was kind of an inspirational thing where I was like, “Wow, this is really cool, kind of like better days are coming up and I can see it.”

‘It is hopeful,’ the star added.

‘There’s a lot of stuff that is going on in the world that is not so good and I was a little bit bummed about it,’ she said at the time.

‘With all of the shootings [in schools], and how politically everything is upside down, crap that’s going on that’s not cool.

‘I think we need more positivity.’

Nikki has been on the cover of YRB, Esquire, featured in the pages of ELLE, Genlux, People, US Weekly, InTouch, Life & Style, and has been spotlighted by E!, Access Hollywood, Extra, VH1, and Good Day LA.

Designs from Nikki have been worn by Miley Cyrus, Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Demi Lovato, Brandy, Brad Paisley and Blake Shelton.

This comes a week after she partied with The Real Housewives Of Dallas stars D’Andra Simmons and Kary Brittingham during the her store opening in Texas. 

The ladies looked happy to party indoors for a change after lockdown was lifted from COVID-19.

The shop is owned by Lund, who lives in Calabasas, California.

Also there was Bachelor and Bachelor In Paradise vet Erica Rose with her daughter Holland.

Simmons, 52, stood out in a bright outfit with her long hair down. She has been married to Jeremy Lock since 2014.

Kary also got gussied up for the evening; the 50-year-old blonde beauty from Guadalajara, Mexico is wed to Eduardo Brittingham.

Rose, who wore pink as well to the splashy event, came to fame as a contestant on the 9th season of The Bachelor and went on to appear in Bachelor Pad seasons two and three.  

She was a straight-talking semi-villain who was known for wearing a tiara.

In 2020 she welcomed Holland with Galen Gentry.

Lund co-hosted the store opening with Cindy Eckert who owns the pink ceiling and Woman On Top. She looked chic in a pink outfit with a clutch purse as her long black hair was half up. The gift bags and flowers were provided by Amanda Orso.

The shop is located in MKT in uptown Dallas.

Nikki, who used to date rocker Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi, wore a tight black outfit. It was a family affair for the Los Angeles based star as she bright her mother.
