Precious White!!!

Ooh la la white! As always white is a gorgeous summer color and it is always included in designer spring/summer collections whether haute couture or mass market! The different part about the white trend this Spring 2011 is the fact that the hot thing to do is to wear ALL white - from head to toe! Shoes, tops, pants, shorts, skirts, dresses, bags, hats, jewelry and whatever else to tickle your fancy! Yes matchy matchy - lets hope not to get dirty! The toughest thing to keep clean = white wardrobe..The problem with this crispy clean color is that you wear it once and then it must either sit in your laundry basket or be sent to the dry cleaners... This can get quitttte pricey...so I tend to keep these white pieces to a minimum but you bet I will be sporting this trend at least once (most likely more because I love white against sunkissed skin :D)

Mini tid bit*** Pleassssseee promise to match up your whites...not all whites are white! Can you believe that lol...the worst is to see someone wearing a bluish white with a greyish white...or even ivory...big no no....just make sure it looks good together...IN THE SUNLIGHT!

SWIM SUIT FASHION GUIDE - MERCEDES BENZ SWIM FASHION WEEK 2011

As I was on the prowl for a new swim suit for beach season coming up - I decided to analyze the MERCEDES BENZ SWIM collection and break it down into trend categories to see what is really hot right now because you know us fashionistas love to be wearing the hottest trendiest pieces :D


Now everybody already knows what swim suit is good for their body type and what the basics are so I decided to skip those and zone in on the trendy colors/cuts and prints! Here goes:


I work in the lingerie fashion industry and this FAUX-DENIM trend is really hot right now - All our biggest retailers are dying for any style that is in relation to this trend...obviously everybody in swim wear loves it too!!! This used to be associated to a very urban customer but not so much anymore!


This is a new trend that I am loving but these are solely show pieces - nobody in real life that wants to go to the beach would wear these lol but I still find them hot - these pieces look like they can be a 2 pc bikini but connected with netting, knots or lace - LOVE the black Beach Bunny swimsuit on the right!


Wow someones got cold nippies hahaha - crossovers are very popular right now - they used to be strong way back when but made a nice come back to spice up a simple swim suit!


O feathers! I heart them!!! They are so pretty and feminine and if you notice they are all peacock feathers :) Feathers are stilllll hottttt guysssss so keep on wearing them!


Eh they say everyone hates a gold digger but baby I love em - I am a sucker for anything gold! It was sort of taboo to wear all gold and a weeee bit raunchy but hell if you have the body - pleassssse rock it!!!


Ahhh jungle fever - I love what it means (haha) but Im not a hugggge fan of it...its kind of typical and pretty strong every year but just so you all know - its stillll here...so your still in style if your wearing it from decades ago lol


Now this trend is hot - mmmm especially on the guyyyy!!! I love a man that can wear girly colors and not be shy about it! I like the whole mix and match idea that Tyler Rose has going on :) Now I can go into my swim suit collection and mix-n-match whatever I want loll


Had to prove my point about the 3 hottest Spring 2011 colors - Yes orange is hot for both men and women!


MMMM I have nothing to say - pink speedo on sexy body - what more is there hahaha


This is a gorgeous Spring 2011 color - reminds me of an ice cold freezy pop - mmm I cannot wait for summer :D


OOOO white - lovvvve white - when you get a nice tan and your wearing white...sooo sexy! I am loving the whole crochet idea by Lisa Maree but more of a show piece if anything...
Designers are adding anything to give their basics added value and more funnnn! Everyone has a basic 2 pc but not everyone has starfish on theirs like Luli Fama!! I like to be different so these are a lot of fun :)


Meowwwww (or a zebra sound lol) - animals are sexy as helll this year in everything! I was kind of shocked that there weren't too many leopard prints but gotta love any animal :D


These are some fierce pieces! I wouldn't wear any of them except Mara Hoffmans 2 pc - WOW sexy as hellllll - I think I want to buy it for my trip!!!


Bigger is better! I am loving the first pc but abit scared about the boldness of the crotch area - make sure your clean shaven lollll and I think I want to buy the white Caffe swim suit alsooo ahhh too many choices!


These are cute but I am not sure how I feel about these lingerie-ish pieces...I like to keep my sexy lingerie collection separate from my swim suit collection... Seduction should be saved for the bedroom :x (As if swim suits have not become skimpy enough already)


Love these wild cards but pleassssse where can you wear these??? Terrible tan lines - eek - definitely for Miami rooftop parties under the umbrellas... Or for people that don't need or want to tan...not MOI! lol

I vote "Go home to change" 


[The Look] Scarlet Princess

[The Look] Boring Floral
[Cody Horn]
[Princess Says] Only when I looked closely did I notice the print on her dress were flowers...I'm not impressed...I feel like this is a terrible pick for sunny weather...and its old...looks like she went to an old factory in China and asked them to pick a stock fabric to make this dress...it doesn't fit well either...And those fishnet fingerless gloves...is she trying to pull off the "punk" look...Cause it just didn't work...
I vote 'NAY"

[The Look] Repeat of Amy Adams
[Dale Dickey]
[Princess Says] Did her and Amy Adams share fabric? Sucks to have a similar piece as someone else because you know the critics will eat you alive.. I have nothing to say except YAWN.
I vote "NAY"



[The Look] Old Porcelain Doll
[Florence Welch]
[Princess Says] Typically a porcelain doll is looked upon as perfect and gorgeous but here I find it to be boring and yellowing from old age... the skirt color doesn't match her top..love the hair color on her but don't love the messiness of it...
I vote "NAY"


[The Look] Swan Princess
[Hailee Steinfeld]
[Princess Says] So sweet and innocent! Love that this young girl's stylist kept her pristine, age appropriate and pretty rather than sexy in a custom Marchesa gown.. how can I say anything mean about a beautiful little girl? 
I vote "YES"

[Halle Berry]
[Princess Says] I want to see more color - she looks washed out...Gorgeous Marchesa dress...but not for her...
 I vote "Neutral"

I vote "NAY"


[The Look] Ruffle My Feathers
[Hilary Swank]
[Princess Says] She has done it all in this dress, the bling, the ombre effect and the feathers - Love Gucci! But truly not a fan of this girl...wish someone else was wearing this dress... and add some diamonds on her neck...
I vote "YES" (just because she picked a good piece)


[The Look] Orange Pancake
[Jennifer Hudson]
[Princess Says] Yes she is proud that she lost weight but PLEASE do not show it off by flaunting your flat boobs and insulting a gorgeous Versace Dress! This dress is an eyepopper and sooooo hard to miss yet I don't even remember what it looks like because I cannot stop staring at her breasts! This stylist should be FIRED and I am also shocked that she let his happen...do people look in the mirror?
  I vote "NAY"
[The Look] Baywatch
[Jennifer Lawrence]
[Princess Says] This is a nice fit but OH SO BORING! Typical of Calvin Klein. I feel like she is wearing the gown version of Pamela Anderson's swim suit from Baywatch... Talk about putting no effort here...She is lucky she is hot...

[The Look] Peek-a-boo Lace
[Melissa Leo]
[Princess Says] Not quite sure if she has anything underneath and quite frankly I don't want to know... I don't like the styling or the shape of this dress...looks old fashioned... Love the cut out, show skin idea but not the dress... 
I vote "NAY" 
[The Look] Sea World
[Michelle Williams]

[Natalie Portman]
[Princess Says] Love the color but don't love the length of this dress and not particularly fond of the neckline..yes yes she is prego and not a lot of choice when your about to pop but... WRONG she has the world at her beck and call and could've done a teeny weeny bit better than this Rodarte dress... 
I vote "Neutral"
[The Look] Oriental Ice Princess?
[Nicole Kidman]

[Penelope Cruz]
[Princess Says] Lets start with her hair...no shape, no styling, old fashion streaks.. who is her hair stylist??? FIRED! She's normally so absolutely gorgeous, in with the times and perfect...what happened? and the dress by L'Wren Soctt...not my fave so I have to say... 
I vote "Neutral"
