Honeymoon Spread in the Jan. 2011 Issue of Brides Mag

This just in: Juicy Couture Swimwear was featured in Brides Magazine! 

One of our favorite new styles from Juicy’s 2011 swimwear collection was included in a haute honeymoon spread.  Read on for details…

In the January 2011 issue of Brides Magazine, the editors featured a very “beachy keen” spread dedicated to honeymoons.  They showed their readers the essential items that make up the perfect honeymoon beach bag.  In addition to a haute beach hat and a chic cover-up, Brides Magazine editors advised their readers to pack a flirty bikini like the SweetTreat bikini in grey from the 2011 Juicy Couture Swimwear Collection! 

SweetTreat (Pink) by Juicy

If you like the style, you’re in luck!  We have the new SweetTreat bikini in pink!  The bra top features adjustable straps and a center bow detail.  Furthermore, the top has lightly padded cups and underwire support.  The bra top’s paired with a sexy skirted bottom that has full back coverage and a design that helps cover up the inner thigh area.  And with its flirty pink and white striped pattern, this candy-coated bikini from Juicy Couture is sweet as can be!

We couldn’t agree more with Brides Magazine!  With the SweetTreat bikini from the 2011 Juicy Couture Swimwear Collection, you get one very va-va-voom look!

 ties in a shimmery taupe color with subtle gold bead details.  The tie-side Brazilian bottom has sexy rippled edges and a back cinch detail, perfect for making a smaller booty look fab!

Another adorable new style from the 2011 Sofia by ViX line is the Garden two-piece.  Like last year, both floral prints and mixing mismatching prints are going to be huge trends for 2011, and this adorable bikini nailed ‘em both!  The bandeau top features a black and white checkered plaid print and pink center heart detail.  The adorable skirted bottom features a contrasting pink

Melissa Dress (Pink)

rosebud print and moderate back coverage, making for one flirty look that’ll have you feeling sweet and can be!

The great thing about this print is that seemingly no two prints are exactly the same—they always vary in color, size, and/or cut of the fabric.  Here are some of our top floral print picks.  Enjoy

Catalonia

1. Catalonia by Lisa Curran 

Catalonia by Lisa Curran Swimwear is one of our favorite 2010 styles.  In terms of style, this swimsuit features a halter top and tie-side string bottom.  Also, the light color palette gives this floral print swimwear style a soft feminine touch.  But it gets better—this swimsuit is now 30% off!

2. Power Flower by Anika Brazil

Power Flower

Power Flower by Anika Brazil (also on sale) is another great floral pick.  We love this two-piece because it features a jumbo and slightly abstract floral print swimwear style in shades of pink!  Also, this Anika Brazil style was featured in SELF Magazine, May 2010 issue.  Gotta love it!

3. Loulou by ViX Swimwear

Loulou

We’re cuckoo for Loulou!  The Loulou two-piece by ViX Swimwear is from the 2010 summer collection, and it’s absolutely gorgeous!  It features a coral base (one of the hottest summer colors) and little purple flowers!  Furthermore, this floral print swimwear style also features gold stud details, which adds a touch of rocker-chic glam to this ultra-girly style!

First we have the gorgeous AnnaLynne McCord in Vitamin A Swimwear.  The beautiful 90210 starlet was spotted chillin’ poolside in Miami.  She was sporting the Uptown Jewelry Link Halter Top and Uptown Jewelry Link Bottom in India Pink Shimmer.  Often described as the sassy yet lovable anti-heroine of the CW’s 90210, AnnaLynne McCord definitely has all eyes on her in Vitamin A!

Hayden Panettiere in Vitamin A

Next up we have the cute and cuddly Hayden Panettiere, also sporting India Pink Shimmer separates by Vitamin A Swimwear.  The adorable young actress and singer was spotted spending some quality time with boyfriend Wladimir Klitschko, who she was holed up with for whole month in January!  Hayden Panettiere sported the Cosmo Deluxe Top and Celebrity String Bottom by Vitamin A, both in India Pink Shimmer.  This lady’s never looked better!   

AnnaLynne McCord and Hayden Panettiere prove that they’re two bikini bombshells with a soft spot for designer swimwear, as they show off their girly-glam style in Vitamin A Swimwear.  But who wins this edition of Battle of the Bikini Bombshells?  AnnaLynne McCord or Hayden Panettiere?  Help decide the winner today!

That blonde bikini bombshell from the CW’s 90210 is back at it again!  AnnaLynne McCord certainly seems to enjoy the warm California sunshine, as she’s been frequently spotted in hot little bikini numbers.  Fashionistas take note—this young Hollywood starlet is always a bikini do.

Pictured here in a girly pink ruffle two-piece, AnnaLynne McCord shows us her

Pink Ruffle

girly side.  The tiered ruffle triangle top gives AnnaLynne’s petite bust that extra oomph, and the subtle ruffle detail on the string tie-side bottom complements the suit perfectly.  Steal her look with the Pink Ruffle skirted bikini by OndadeMar Swimwear or the Joplin Triangle swimsuit by ViX Swimwear.

This summer, take a note from AnnaLynne McCord and DO show off your flirty feminine side in playful ruffles and pinks that pop.

Pink Ruffle

1. Pink Sands

The Pink Sands group from the OndadeMar Swimwear line features an adorable polka dot print.  The background is magenta with allover light pink polka dots.  The new Pink Sands Monokini from OndadeMar Swimwear is a sexy monokini-style one-piece, featuring a bandeau-style top and adjustable tie-sides.  The Pink Sands swimsuit features a molded underwire top and low-rise bottom, while the Pink Ruffle swimsuit features a ruffle trim triangle top and ruffle skirted bottom.  Mix and match these separates as you please!

This summer, show of your flirty girly side and check out the pretty pink swim styles from the 2010 OndadeMar Swimwear Summer Collection!

Viva by Seafolly

Some of my all-time favorite swimsuit top styles are ruffle bandeau tops, and with the 2010 designer swimwear collections, there are plenty to choose from!  Whether you want a little or a lot, these bandeaus will definitely do wonders for your bust!

Many of this year’s bandeau-style tops feature soft, subtle ruffle detail.  For example, Liberty by ViX, Viva by Seafolly, and Cool by Salinas are two-pieces that feature different styles of bandeau tops, but they all have a soft and simple ruffle layer lining the top.  These hot new 2010 swimwear styles show you that a little bit of ruffle goes a long way!

Ebony Ivory by L Space

On the other hand, some of the new 2010 swimwear styles feature ruffle bandeau tops with lots of girly ruffles!  Styles like Frill Me by Seafolly and Ebony Ivory by L Space feature bandeau styles that go straight across.  Normally, this straight style of bandeau can make you look smaller up top, but with the addition of girly ruffles, these tops will make you look fuller and fabulous! 

Whether you’re into girly-glam style or you’re a little “ruff” around the edges, these new ruffle bandeau tops are a perfect way to update your summer wardrobe!

Jessica Gomes in Capri Skirted

For the 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, Juicy Couture Swimwear hit Lisbon, Portugal!  One of the brand’s best-selling prints of the 2010 season is the Capri print—we loved it so much that we snagged it in a number of hot new styles!  Check out models Jessica Gomes and Anne V in the new Sports Illustrated 2010 Swimsuit Edition!

First up we have Jessica Gomes, who bravely bared all while walking the streets of Lisbon, Portugal.  Photographer Stewart Shining captured Jessica Gomes in the Capri Skirted two-piece from the 2010 Juicy Couture Swimwear line.  This ultra-girly print looks extra juicy with the new skirted bottom!

Anne V in Capri Monokini

Also, world-renowned model Anne V joined Ms. Gomes in Lisbon, Portugal, as she modeled the Capri Monokini for the new Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue!  Randall Grant photographed Anne V in this innovative new Juicy Couture style, which pairs the flirty feminine print with bold designer cuts. 

If you love the Capri print as much as we do, check out the Capri triangle string bikini and the Capri Romper from the 2010 Juicy Couture Swimwear collection—they didn’t make the cut for the 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, but we still love ‘em!

Patty Cakes

Spring is here, so it’s time to retire those flannel shirts and go gaga for gingham!  For 2010, gingham print swimwear styles and gingham cover-ups show you two girly ways to bring in the new swim season.  Yep, we bet you’ll be seeing this adorable new swim trend popping up on beaches and poolsides everywhere!
 

One of our all-time favorite swimwear designers has caught on to the new girly swimwear trend.  Known for her gorgeous collections with mass appeal, Betsey Johnson always features the perfect combo of classic feminine swimwear styles, as well as badass rocker-chick styles.  The 2010 Betsey Johnson Swimwear collection features pretty gingham print swimwear styles, as well as adorable gingham cover-ups!  Patty Cakes is one of our favorite new two-pieces from the new collection.  The black and white two-piece

Petal Dress

features a halter top and scoop bottom, both of which feature adorable little bows and cute cut-out details.  Love the look?  We also have the matching Patty Cakes Dress! 

In addition to these black and white gingham print swimwear styles, we also have two new gingham cover-ups!  Petal Dress and Petal Dress Pink show you the right way to mix two girly prints, and when they come together, the result is a flirty feminine style!  Both of these gingham cover-ups feature a flattering babydoll design, and you can choose either green or pink! 

For 2010, celebrate your inner girlhood with gingham print swimwear and gingham cover-ups!
