swimsuit cover-ups

Are you ready to hit the waves this summer? Before you do, you must have the perfect cover-up for walking on the beach. Sure you can get around in your bikini, but still, it won’t hurt for you to have a cover-up on hand. There are many stylish cover-ups that you can get. Last time I browsed Victoria’s Secret site, I saw these alluring cover ups. These are what I’m going to suggest to you. Try the J. Valdi Floral lace cover-up. There's no other way to describe it but alluring and infinitely sexy. Instead of hiding your body, this cover-up just gives more emphasis to your curves.

janet jackson fashion line

Well, look who’s joining the fashion biz? Pop diva Janet Jackson is rumored to be working on her very own lingerie line. Janet is one of the women in show business that has great fashion taste, despite some faux pas; remember when her breast popped out during a performance with Justin Timberlake?
Anyway, her plan to come up with her own clothing line was confirmed as she replied “I’m working on it” when asked if there is a possibility of her launching her own clothing line.
She refused to give out any more details on the range she’s supposedly working on.

vp for miu miu

French singer Vanessa Paradis has been out of the spotlight for some time but it seems she's back now!
Paradis is the new face of Miu Miu's fall 2008 campaign.
Prada made the choice of Paradis based on her profile as an independent, powerful woman that emits a certain fragility and feminine strength. She is the interpretation of the Miu Miu woman!

What do you think? Is Vanessa Paradis the perfect woman for Miu Miu?

swimsuits 2008

Can you feel the summer heat? Well, I can!
Doesn’t it just make you crave for a swim? Swimming in the pool or on the beach shouldn’t just make you feel good – you should look good too. In order to be yummy to look at you must have a swimsuit that complements and enhances your body.
For your guide, you have to check out these swimsuit designs compiled by Lucky Magazine. Among the designs, I like the Classic Halter design. It’s very stylish and not at skimpy at all. I’ve seen a lot of my friends wear this kind; unfortunately for me I wasn’t able to find one! Get yours from Victoria's Secret or just find one that looks like it!
Another design is the Side-tie Bikini that lets you tie it up your waist according to your size. Totally comfy!

jessica simpson

I’m really beginning to admire Jessica Simpson’s business sense. She already has her own line of handbags, sunglasses, shoes, and swim-wear – all of them quite successful I must say. Now, she’s adding another point of interest to her business. The new Jessica Simpson intimate apparel will be coming out soon. To be officially called as Jessica Simpson Intimates it will be composed of undies, bras, daywear, and sleepwear. All of these will be out in the spring of 2009, so you have to watch out for them in major department stores as well as online sellers.

Kristin Davis

Maybe if you were to ask some female celebrities what business they would like put up, I’m sure many would answer you – fashion! One more celeb is launching her fashion line soon. It’s one of your favorite “Sex and the City” gals, Charlotte, a.k.a. Kristin Davis. She is partnering with one of the top US retailers Belk Inc. Autumn is the target time for the launch of her debut collection. The collection is a reflection of Kristin’s personal sense of style, “modern, feminine, style savvy”. You have to watch out for a variety of dresses, knits, jeans, handbags, shoes, jewelry, and lingerie. Everything is quite affordable because price range from $40 to $240 each piece.

natalie portman in cannes

Natalie Portman is one of the celebrities whose sense of style cannot be faulted.
So far, I haven’t seen or read about her as being featured in any fashion disaster post. She’s always on top of the trends! She proves that fact during the Cannes Film Festival.
I especially liked the dress she wore at the party given by Dolce and Gabbana. She wore an above-the-knee, black dress and over it is a very chic black & white paillettes-embellished Lanvin shrug. Simple and effective!
She paired that with cute, purple pumps!

yellow dress by vs

Aiming for the beach this summer? You should have at least one outfit to make you look perfectly great. If you also want to be in perfect harmony with the colors of the season, don’t hesitate to grab one Strapless smocked dress in plaid from Victoria’s Secret.
This is a very attractive dress with its tube style bodice that fits snugly.
The empire waist flares sexily and flows right on to display the ruffled hem.

ysl 1936-2008

One of the most famous designers in history has passed away yesterday ... Yves Saint Laurent died in his Paris home at the age of 71 after a long illness.
Yves Saint Laurent contributed to the realm of fashion so much; he made it acceptable for women to wear pants, he put the C in contemporary fashion and he made it clear that not all trends should be followed and that women should pick classic pieces that survive time! He said: "A woman’s wardrobe shouldn’t change every six months. You should be able to use the pieces you already own and add to them. Because they are like timeless classics".
Yves was also the first designer to use black models on the catwalk!

Rest in peace ... You will be dearly missed in the fashion world.

Kate Moss Summer 2008 Collection

It seems not long ago since Kate Moss launched her second collection for Topshop. The last one I covered was last year, September. And now she’s at it again with her new summer collection. This latest collection is Bohemian-inspired. I must say it’s an amazing collection because avid Topshop customers bought about two hundred of the red pansy dresses for the first and a half hour when the collection went on sale in Topshop’s flagship store in Oxford Street in London. It’s no surprise because it’s really a mouthwatering dress! Another favorite is the Rajasthani-style printed dress with a halter neck.

H&M summer collection

Summer is just around the bend once again. I’m sure a lot of you are looking forward to lounging around swimming pools or on the beach. And summer time is also a time for getting out those summer things that you have in your wardrobe. But, on second thought, you’d better just keep them hidden and buy your summer things from the H&M Summer ‘08 Swim Collection. This new collection is a very colorful one with a bit of ethnic touch. H&M aficionados can look forward to lots of bohemian maxi dresses printed with tropical leaf designs, kimono-sleeved beach cover ups and lots of daring bikinis.
