Trend Watch

White on black geometric prints and patterns were very necessary for your spring/summer 2009 wardrobe and the trend is holding strong for 2010. We loved this chic halter bikini at the Red Carter fashion show. Step up your style by accenting your swimwear with a fashionable floppy hat and bangles.

Brown Beauties

Looks like double trouble at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Miami, where actresses Essence Atkins and Gabrielle Union took a break from the runway to laugh it up at the Zo’s Summer Groove Comedy Show.

Total Fashionista

The pool deck at The Raleigh Hotel in South Beach Miami became the runway of choice at the Boheme Boutiques 2010 fashion show. We are lovin’ this look that is rockin’ in head-to-toe style. Merchandising your swimsuit with a complementing cover-up, hat and handbag make a complete fashion statement.

Eye Candy

Mercedes-Benz made a smart move selecting runway king Tyson Beckford as its spokesperson, because wherever he goes, so go the ladies. The “Make Me a Supermodel” host looks like a beach babe at the Ashley Paige Girls Gone Wild Fashion Show.

It’s A Cover Up

The latest sarong styles are anything but basic. Take cue from this look sent down the runway at the Marysia Swim 2010 fashion show and cruise around in a cover-up that defines and shapes your curves.

From the beaches of Guadeloupe, designer Veronique de la Cruz’s V Del Sol collection offers sexy, soft swimwear with silky support, making women feel and look great for every hot water bound occasion. Pair a few long layered necklaces with your suit for one-of-a-kind beach beauty.
