We Are Handsome Swimsuits For Summer 2011

1 Comment 07 July 2011

We Are Handsome are not your typical swimsuits. While most brands have a wide variety of styles and cuts for their swimsuits, We Are Handsome concentrates on the art meets fashion side of swimwear. We Are Handsome uses the fabrics in their swimsuits as a  canvas and all of their bathing suits have vivid graphic prints of images and scenery on them.

While they make some great two piece swimsuits, I love their deep back bathing suits because they have the most amount of fabric to be covered with the images.  Do not worry though that these swimsuits are going to have too much fabric because the backs are cut very deep and the necklines are not that high. You will still look sexy in these bathing suits. In fact you will probably draw more attention to yourself than if you wore a typical bikini from another company.

The We Are Handsome The Hollywood Scoop Back One Piece has an image of the late James Dean with a cigarette in him mouth against a sunset. The reds oranges and yellows just make you think of being at the beach and James Dean is such a well recognized person that you will most definitely draw lots of attention to yourself when wearing this suit. The back continues with the theme from the front.

Sticking the the theme of the West Coast the We Are Handsome The Los Angeles Scoop Back One Piece has shades of pink and purple as a backdrop for an airplane landing into the LA skyline surrounding by palm trees and telephone lines. This swimsuit also has a very deep back and the back of the suit continues with the images on the front.

The image on the We Are Handsome The Miami Scoop Back One Piece has a vintage look to it. A vintage 1950s pink Cadallic with its top down has the backseat of the car turned into a pool and has a woman in a yellow bathing suit lounging in the water while being driven around by a sunglasses wearing man. The front of the Cadillac can be seen in the back of the swimsuit as well.

The We Are Handsome The Arabia Bandeau is a bit different than the previously mentioned swimsuits. This bandeau style bathing suit can be worn tied around the neck or tied in a knot and worn strapless. The background from this swimsuit is a bright cloud filled blue sky and has an Arabian Horse galloping across the desert. The back of the suit goes to the mid back and the desert and sky covers the back of the swimsuit.

All We Are Handsome bathing suits are handmade in Australia with the finest polyester lycra fabrics that can be found. Just like the finest artwork, these bathing suits are made in limited quantities so you should hurry and get yours today.

Kim kardashian Bikini Thief Lucy

Even though Kim Kardashian has collaborated with Beach Bunny with her sisters for a swimsuit line, that does not mean that she only exclusively wears this brand. Recently Kim was seen wearing the Bikini Thief Lucy Bikini.

Bikini Thief is a fairly newcomer to the swimsuit scene but is making quite a splash in the the swimwear world. With great two piece bikinis in so many vibrant colors and patters as well as a large selection of maternity swimwear that offers coverage without giving up on style, all of the Bikini Thief bathing suits are great that it is hard to pick a favorite.

The Bikini Thief Lucy Bikini in Bright Coral/Black – as seen on Kim Kardashian is a slide triangle top that is lightly padded. The bottoms are full coverage so there is no fear of exposing more than you are comfortable with. The Bright Coral and Black print pattern appears to be an animal print, tiger being the most guessed, but in reality is seaweed which is a nod to its creator Whitney Andresen who grew up on Cape Cod and Martha’s Vinyard.

Alexis Indiana Crochet Poncho Dress / Cover Up

No Comments 23 June 2011

The Alexis Indian Crochet Poncho is a great example of a great Boho Chic dress/ swimsuit coverup.

Summer 2011 is all about looking glamorous in a natural way. There is no way better to create this look than with a great crochet dress. With the loose open weave detailing the Alexis Indian Crochet Poncho allows you to look great without having to put a lot of effort or time into your outfit. Since the poncho is sheer you will need to wear a short slip dress underneath it if you want to wear it as a dress. Alternately, you can throw this on over your swimsuit after a day at the beach or pool. You can meet friends for drinks at a beach side bar or go grab a few essentials without having to change out of your bathing suit.

The Alexis Indian Crochet Poncho has an off the shoulder neckline, a matching crochet sash belt that can be removed if you choose to do so, and long flowing sleeves that give you coverage without adding any bulkiness to the poncho. When fall comes you can even wear this with a pair of jeans with a shirt underneath. This truly embodies all that the Boho Chic look is about and you will get so many compliments when wearing this poncho.

Beach Bunny Kardashian One and Two Piece Swimsuits

No Comments 14 June 2011

What are the Kardashian sisters not involved with? From diet pills to nail polish to television shows to swimwear these sisters seem to have their hand in anything and everything offered to them. To me there seems to be an over saturation of Kardashians. With that being said though, I do have to say that their collaboration with Beach Bunny Swimwear is a great one and the swimsuits I have seen are all top notch and highly desirable. What I like about the swimsuits is that each sister has created a swimsuit that fits their needs as opposed to all three of them creating something that really does not show off the individuality of  each sister.

Kim’s Divinity Collection is all about glamour and femininity. Kim “loves getting dressed up when going to the beach” and her swimwear is all about showing off the suit. Kim’s Beach Bunny Kardashian swimsuits are full of jewels, beads, and interesting straps and patterns. The Beach Bunny Kardashian Kim bikini is a great bright turquoise color with multi strings at the top of the bikini top that can be worn in many ways from a cage like pattern to small accents around the chest. Just simply wear the criss cross strings behind your neck to reduce the chances of interesting tan lines and creates a whole new look.  The straps are all adorned with gold tone beads. The bottoms of the suit have the same beads and long side ties that can be worn in bow or tied in a knot.

Kourtney’s approach to her swimwear was to create a line of bathing suits that “are cute and stylish but still practical.” Kourtney wanted to find a balance between comfort and style all the while keeping in mind that swimwear needs to be functional and there should be no fear of what happens when you go in the water. The Beach Bunny Kardashian Collection Walk In The Water Bikini is a great swimsuit. A matte microfibre nautical stripe bikini in navy blue and white has gold lurex ruffle trim accents. This is a very popular swimsuit and has been seen worn not only by Kourtney but by other celebrities as well.

Khloe created swimwear that “covered all the right places, but still really young and sexy” keeping in mind that every woman has some part of her body that she is self conscious of especially when wearing a bathing suit. The Beach Bunny Kardashian Wind It Up is a one piece shiny gunmetal metallic swimsuit that has cut outs along the left side of the suit with a corset closure on that side as well. To balance out all the detailing on the left side, the top of the suit has a single strap on the right shoulder.

No matter if you are a Kim, Kourtney, or Khloe there is a Beach Bunny Kardashian swimsuit that will fit not only your personality but your style as well. All of these swimsuits will draw all eyes to you this summer.

Rooftop Cabana Swimsuit Ruffle Tier Bikini

No Comments 07 June 2011

Summer is a time to be carefree and have fun and what better way to show off these feelings than with a bright and colorful ruffle bikini.

The Rooftop Cabana Swimsuit is a summer must have. This casual and flirty two piece swimsuit is so bright and cheerful. I love bright bands of ruffles at an angle creating an illusion of height. The ruffles cover the entire front of the top and bottom of this bikini while the back of the bottoms is a baby blue and the top has string ties. The colors stand out but at the same time work so well together. The suit has a bit of a retro feel to it but at the same time is so modern. This really is a must have summer swimsuit.

Colorblocking is a huge trend right now and there are so many different ways to wear this look. You can wear a solid color top with a different color bottom and a third color shoes. You also can wear a solid color top that has a contrasting  color trim and a solid bottom with or without the same trim. The Marc by Marc Jacobs Colorblock Bikini is more similar to the second way.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Colorblock Bikini is a solid purple triangle top bikini with contrasting white trim under the bust and on one of the triangles and the other triangle is a gorgeous coral pink. The closure of this bikini is a criss crossing tie in the back with one string being white and the other coral. All three of the colors really complement one another and work well together and at the same time each color is attention grabbing and draws you in. There are removable padding at the cups.

The bottoms of this suit are the same purple shade as the top with the same coral color trim. The suit itself is full coverage with thin banding on the waist.  This really is a great color choice and style to wear at the beach or pool all summer long.

Mikoh String Back Bikini Top and String Side Bikini Bottoms

There are only so many unique ways to make a bikini since there are many constraints in terms of material and shape.

The Mikoh Corsica String Back Bikini Top and Tortola String Side Bikini Bottom are the perfect solution for a bikini if you are wanting something original and does not look like other swimsuits.  The Mikoh Corsica String Back Bikini Top is a bandeau style bikini top that looks like a simple bathing suit top in the front but the entire back is made up of thin straps. Boning at the sides of the suit help keep the shape and give some support to the bandeau top.  The Mikoh Tortola String Side Bikini Bottom features  the thin strap detailing all around the sides of the suit. In fact, the bottoms are a bit more detailed than the top because the thin straps are more prominent.

Both top and bottom are sold separately and are available in three great colors: Bahama Blue, Palm Yellow, and Night Black. You can choose to mix the colors up or wear the same color top and bottom.

This is a great suit to wear this summer and you are sure to get so many complements when wearing, but keep in mind that you will get some interesting tan lines from this suit so be sure to wear sunblock to prevent so many thin lines.

Nycked Tuxedo Bikini , Fancy Up Your Swimwear

No Comments 12 May 2011

Who says a tuxedo is not appropriate for the beach?

The Nycked Tuxedo Bikini is a simple, yet unique swimsuit that will draw attention to you when you wear it. It is a simple black and white swimsuit but the detailing of the tie at the neck makes it look like a tuxedo neck tie. This suit comes in black with white detailing or white with black detailing and both versions are equally as great. There is really nothing too fancy about this suit, they simply made the tie around the neck longer and wider than normal with the ends shaped like a bow tie. To best show off the detailing of this neck tie on the suit, tie as normal but instead of letting the tails of the tie hang down in the back, swing them back over your shoulders to the front so it looks like an untied bow tie. The shape of the bikini top is a triangle and there is removable padding at the cups. Ruched details on the top give this suit a very feminine look. The bottoms of the suit have a side tie in the reverse color of the suit which carries over the bow tie look making the suit flow together nicely.

The amount of great bikini swimsuits that there are to choose from are enormous and picking just one can be a difficult decision but the Nycked Tuxedo Bikini is not only a unique suit that few others will be wearing but it is functional and can easily be worn in the pool or ocean,  not just for laying out.

It Was An Itsy Bitsy Polka Dot Bikini

It Was An Itsy Bitsy Polka Dot Bikini

1 Comment 23 April 2011

In 1960 a song called Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini was a hit not only on the radio but for the sale of all bikini swimsuits. Until then the two piece was seen as too risqué and not mainstream enough to be accepted but soon after that song, surf movies with girls in bikinis were all the rage.

Now I am sure that there are plenty of yellow polka dot bikinis still around but they are not as plentiful as other colors are. A polka dot bikini in general is easy to find due to the fact that dots are a top trend for spring / summer 2011. Whether you prefer a sporty bikini or an itsy bitsy one make sure to have at least  one polka dot one in your wardrobe.

The Juicy Couture Pink Polka Dot Triangle Bikini is a sporty yet sexy bikini. The pink and white polka dot top has a striped chest band with decorative center bow. The pink and white polka dot bottoms for this suit are on the skimpy side and have side ties. Wear this bikini with a pair of oversized white sunglasses and a great beach bag.

A sporty retro inspired bathing suit is the Nina Swimwear Barberella Bikini in Polka Dots. The top is a scoop halter neck and offers support and comfort. You can lounge or play in the ocean in this suit knowing that everything is going to stay where it is supposed to. The bottoms of the bikini have leather accents that can be easily removed when being washed. This does make me wonder though if this suit can get wet at all without ruining the leather. This is a question that most definitely needs to be resolved before buying and wearing this suit near the water.

You can never go wrong with a classic black and white outfit, this applies to swimwear as well. The Seventh wonderland Polka Dot Knot Bikini is a black and white bikini with a white knot detailing in the center. This bandeau style bikini has ruching at the white panel knot area giving it a bit more detailing to an already great suit. The bottom half is black and white polka dot as well and has decorative knot detailing at its sides. My favorite part of this suit is that the polka dots are two different sizes making this a very unique swimsuit.

Bikini swimwear has come a long way in the past 50 years in terms of style and fashion. You have to wonder a bit though where we would be if not for that fateful song about a yellow polka dot bikini.
