Alexis Swimwear: Fabulous in Ruffles

Posted on March 17, 2009 by admin

Need a bikini hot enough to melt the snowcaps of Mount Kilimanjaro?

Take a look at this beauty — an exotic two-piece swimsuit from the Alexis Swimwear collection, featuring sexy tribal and primal influences.

Yes, there’s something instinctively alluring about this hot little swimsuit number. And that makes the contrast of all those soft, sweet frills such a pleasant surprise.

This floral Triangle bikini is an adjustable slider top, edged in delicate, feminine ruffles that gently frame the bust for a flattering effect.

And more romantic ruffles frame the bikini around the waist and flounce delicately around the hips, making this beautiful bikini extremely relevant, especially since ruffles are making a major fashion statement vogue this summer.

We love this swimsuit from Miami designer Alexis Barbara because it oozes sex appeal while exuding feminine qualities at the same time.

Vix Swimwear 2009: The Tube Bikini

Posted on March 11, 2009 by admin

Our bikini warriors have sought out fashion shows near and far to find the hottest swimsuit for this spring… and we’ve found it!

Just have a little faith in this stunning turquoise “Faith” bikini from the Vix 2009 swimwear collection – it caught our attention and held us captivated by it’s sheer beauty.

The triangle tube top boasts a splash of 23K eye-catching gold detail on straps that tie at the back and neck.

But here’s the best part – that beautiful bling isn’t just for good looks. Move the gold square beading anywhere along the straps for a customized look to suit your taste, then adjust the triangles for cleavage control.

And that’s just on top. There’s more tubing on the bikini bottom, so you can adjust your swimsuit for the perfect rear view too.

We think this two piece embodies a wonderful Brazilian sensability that will get you noticed at the beach or on your next vacation.

Betsey Johnson's Black Magic Swimwear

Posted on March 6, 2009 by admin

Stop the presses… this darling-yet-daring mod bikini is already making headlines at some of the hottest beaches in the country.

We think Betsey Johnson’s conjured up the right recipe with this one-of-a-kind pattern two-piece bikini from her Black Magic swimwear line.

Think sexy. Think sultry. Then add a hint of mystique, a pinch of attitude and adjust the straps to perfection for a customized fit.

The ring-shaped hardware detail on the top adds just the right amount of bling to the bikini top while the strappy tie sides on the bottom nicely accentuate the hips.

And when it comes to accentuating the hips and hugging all those other curves, Betsey Johnson swimwear always fits like a glove.

The brand’s swimsuits are not only stylish, they’re incredibly well constructed with unique prints and designs you won’t find elsewhere.

You’ll rule the beach and all the men on it in this swimsuit. We’re giving this one a two thumbs up for sheer fabulocity!

A Two "Peace" to Stop Any War

Posted on February 24, 2009 by admin

Peace, love and happiness is all you’ll ever need in this mod bikini that showcased at the Tommy Hilfiger booth during the 2009 Surf Expo in Orlando.

Many of the nation’s top swimwear designers and retailers joined hundreds of models inside the Orlando County Convention Center to showcase their summer fashions at the oldest and largest surf trade show in the US.

The event features exciting fashion shows, skate and boardsport demonstrations and attracts retailers and manufacturers from surf, skate, swimwear, and urban apparel shops.

We were among the 15,000 people who got a first-hand look at some of the hottest swimwear fashions that will be seen on the beach this summer.

And speaking of hot, we’re thinking you’ll easily raise the mercury in this mod, peace-themed, String bikini that delivers a one-love, stop-the-violence, “don’t I look sexy” type of message to the masses.

Best of all, you can make that statement without ever uttering a word… that’s why this hippie chic bikini with beaded side-ties is an easy winner in our book.

Agua Bendita: Making Bold Moves With Swimwear

Posted on February 12, 2009 by admin

Ready for vibrant, almost electric swimwear to make you stand out at the beach and possibly even underwater?

If you like being noticed at the beach and want swimwear with an original flair, Agua Bendita might just be the answer.

We fell in love with this vibrant, multi-colored two piece bikini when it debuted and the Miami Swim Show last July at the Miami Convention Center.

It’s a beautiful String bikini with jewel tones and unique colors reminiscent of the hues you might see underwater. And it’s so sexy and festive that it just makes sense to pair this suit with accessories.

You can’t help but think that even the sun will notice you and smile a little brighter in such a delectable swimsuit.

It’s all part Agua Bendita’s vibrant swimwear collection. And the Agua Bendita brand is getting noticed… one of their swimsuits was featured in the 2008 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

So if you want to make a big splash both on land or in the ocean, put on an Agua Bendita swimsuit and get ready to watch the sparks fly.

Paris Hilton, Meet Alexis Barbara

Posted on February 7, 2009 by admin

What do Paris Hilton and South Beach socialite-turned-swimwear fashion designer Alexis Barbara have in common? A little more than you may realize.

The two young heiresses are both drop-dead gorgeous fashionistas who move in high-profile circles, live jet-set Hollywoodesque lives and share a passion for haute couture fashion.

And last summer, Alexis Barbara debuted her first swimwear collection at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Miami Swim featuring exotic and tribal influences. We really love this Miami native’s bikinis — they’re uber sexy and extremely skimpy, so wear if you dare.

Alexis has since launched a full ready-to-wear collection that’s getting rave reviews. In fact, the cameras spotted Paris Hilton ringing in the New Year in Australia sporting an ultra chic Alexis dress!

But the similarities don’t end there. Alexis, who like Paris is the daughter of a wealthy property developer (Oscar Barbara) has a thing for Australian hotties. She was once engaged to tennis star Mark Philippoussis — the same guy who had a very public fling with her royal blondness, Ms. Hilton.

Vanessa Frolicks in Betsey Johnson Swimwear

Posted on February 4, 2009 by admin

We can’t all be lucky enough to live the fabulous life like the rich and famous, but with the right swimwear, you can easily fake the funk and look like a VIP in South Beach.

The paparrazi spotted the young and beautiful Vanessa Hudgens frolicking at the beach sporting a sexy striped Betsey Johnson bkini.

We absolutely love this nautical-themed look on the High School Musical 3 star! Her striking bikini is detailed with a rope-embellishment trim and finished with beaded, strappy tie sides for extra flair.

And kudos to Vanessa for perfecting this look with a Sara Jessica Parker-inspired daisy in her hair!

Now for extra star appeal, wrap an earth toned sarong around your waist and add a pair of slightly oversized shades along with a slightly oversized bag.

Next, add a chic beach hat and step into a pair of Esparadrills. And lastly, find some arm, neck and ear bling to finish the look and head poolside, or to the beach boutiques — anywhere you can been seen and noticed — for some star treatment.

Don’t worry if you can’t find any paparazzi to mistake you for Vanessa — just opt for plan “B” and head poolside in that hot bikini for free cocktails — you’ll get ‘em.

Feel the Spirit of Esprit Swimwear

Posted on January 24, 2009 by admin

Even if the temperatures are plummeting near zero where you live, one look at these sexy swimswuits is all you need to make the mercury rise!

We were on hand at the Miami Convention Center for the Miami Swim Show when Esprit debuted this chic two piece at their booth (seen here on the panel wall) — a flattering gold sequined String bikini.

This bikini has a unique diamond-pattern print and features an exquisite decorative border that’s accented with gold embroidery, exotic Sequins and beads for extra glamor.

You can mix and match by swapping out the Triangle top for a matching, well-constructed Bandeau (not shown) with bones on the side for extra comfort and support.

The Bandeau top has cute string ties that can be tied at the top for an adorable keyhole effect. And we absolutely love the bikini bottom — it’s lined and stretches to hug your derrière and give you a perfect fit in the back.

Cover Style's Safari Swimwear

Posted on January 13, 2009 by admin

Unleash your primal instincts and explore unchartered territory in a savagely sexy swimsuit that shows off a slice of your wild side!

With a lovely leopard print theme accented with vibrant rainbow hues, this brazen safari-inspired bikini by Cover Style has the potential to wreak havok with onlookers at the beach or in the jungle.

And we really think Cover Style nailed this untamed look with the chic, authentic looking Animal Print fabric.

We think the striking burst of rainbow color on both the String bikini top and the banded-waist bottom gives this sizzling suit an undeniable electric energy.

The clever mix of juicy mango, lemon and martini olive hues paired with animal prints is the perfect blend to evoke the untamed beauty in you.

A word of caution… this bikini isn’t for everybody. If you can handle a steady onslaught of unsolicited attention from male suiters all vying for your undivided attention, then this two piece is definately for you!

Betsey's Chocolate Kiss

Posted on January 6, 2009 by admin

Who needs Hershey’s kisses when you’re rocking delicious looking swimwear so sweet, it’s almost good enough to eat.

Leave it to one-of-a-kind iconic swimwear designer Betsey Johnson to create a striking bikini that captures the youthful essense of playful sensuality while satisfying the sweet tooth all at the same time.

The solid mocha Bandeau top is accented with a lovely tie string that ties in the neck and is bejeweled with pink hardware that wears like a neck accessory.

And we couldn’t help but notice the intricate and oh-so-delicate hearts imprinted all over the bikini fabric on the top and bottom.

The bikini bottom is accented with chocolate and white striped side ruching to match the top’s stylish tie string.

This almost eatable Betsey Johnson Swimwear creation is definately swimwear you can sink your teeth into this summer!
