Summer 2011 Swimwear Trends


ANIMAL PRINTS:
Animal prints are a girl's best friend and this season is no exception. Sexy tiger print bikinis, chic python print and flirty leopard prints a the ways to go for Summer 2011. Kourtney Kardashian as been spotted recently in this tiger print bikini by Cia Maritima. Cool silver and white python print pieces are stunning. Leopard is a must-have as well.

LITTLE WHITE BIKINI:
Everyone should have at least 1 white bikini. They are classic, alluring and show off your tan. Designer swimwear is made with quality, triple lined materials to block any show through when wet so you can wear white without fear! Kim Kardashian's hot white two piece for Beach Bunny is a already a hit. This off-white bandeau from Despi has a more demure sexiness. 

CUT OUTS:
Carefully positioned cut outs are great problem solvers and turn a traditional one piece into a fashion statement. Side cut outs mimic an hour-glass shape and create the illusion of curves, great for boyish shapes.  Symmetric and Asymmetric cut out styles will break up long lines, perfect if you a have a long torso. A deep V neckline will draw the eye up and away from problem areas.

FRINGE:
Fringe has been a feature on our accessories for a few seasons but a few ingenious swimwear designers have figured out how to bring the trend to swimwear. The Stardust Fringe Bikinis and One Pieces from Lspace are both hip and flattering. 

This year say no to blah bikinis! Shop stylish swimwear on All Wet Beachwear.

3 Packing Tips for Your Next Beach Getaway

Despi Nicki Pearl Bandeau Bikini
Cia Maritima Seamless Black Solid One Piece

Cia Maritima Expectivas Exoticas Bikini

TIP 1 : Pack These 3 Key Swimsuits
We recommend bringing one white swimsuit. A white swimsuit looks beautiful on everyone and stunning on the sand. In addition, bring one stay-put swimsuit for your more active days in the water. There are a huge variety of fashionable one-pieces this summer. Or if you prefer a bikini, choose one with wide halter straps to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions while snorkeling or frolicking in the waves. The final must-have is a more daring, eye-catching swimsuit in a bright print or with jewelry accents. This high impact swimsuit will be especially necessary if you are travelling in the Caribbean where there are often beach parties an you will want to suit up and stand out.

TIP 2: Pack Tunic Style Cover-Ups
Bring Cover-ups that can you can take from day to evening. Tunics embellished with beads or metallic details look very chic. Prints in lush colors or exotic prints look great in vacation spots. You can pair them with white trousers or black leggings for dinner. The following morning you can throw them on over swimwear.

Mystique Silver Beaded Thong


TIP 3: Don’t forget the flats
We all love putting on a heel but chances are once relaxation sets in you won’t be bothered. Pack a pair of stylish and dressy flats that will look great day or evening.

This Summer's Sun Hats = Fashion + Function


Hats make a stylish statement and after this popular accessory's recent exposure at the Royal Wedding and Kentucky Derby, the hat trend is here to stay for summer 2011.  

Hats serve both fashion and function:
  • A 3 inch brim can block the direct UV rays to the sides of the face and ears.
  • Brims that curve down and sit closer to the face will provide the best protection.
  • Sun hats that have white tops will reflect heat. 
  • A khaki, beige, grey or off-white hat is easy to keep clean.
  • Fabric hats can be packed tightly into luggage and will spring back into shape once they are unpacked.
  • Pair a hat with sunglasses for a chic celeb-worthy look. 

There are so many amazing styes this summer it is difficult to choose right one! When shopping for a hat, think about the setting in which you will wear it. Do you need sun protection? Will you be traveling with your hat, do you need something that can be packed without damaging it? Or will you be wearing your hat at an event, do you need something to match with your other accessories?

Here are our editor's picks for the season:

Casual Day Wear or Shopping -
Want something nice to throw on while you run your errands or go shopping? A hat is a great solution. You can pull your hair back and slip it on and you are out the door, no styling required. This straw cowboy hat with turquoise beads, the Flora Bella Tanya Natural Hat, has lots of personality.



Beach Visit -
This linen and lurex hat, the Flora Bella Marlo Off White Hat, can be easily packed into a beach bag and the extra wide brim will give you maximum UV protection.

Boat Trip -
This white ribbon hat, Flora Bella Susan Hat, with a silver leather tie is nautical and chic. And it will keep your hair in place during a windy boat ride.



Summer Event -
The Flora Bella Delta Raffia Braided Hat, has a glamorous extra-wide brim but it is done in natural raffia color which keeps it casual. It would look lovely paired with a maxi dress, jumpsuit or wide-leg trousers.

We Have the Best Swimsuits for Every Body

Curvy girl? Skinny mini? It is all good. At All Wet Beachwear, we have sexy swimwear for every body type.

Straight Shaped -

THE CHALLENGE:
You are fit and trim but you are lacking the curve department.

THE SOLUTION:
Add volume (and sex appeal) with bold stripes, ties, ruffles, fringe and beading. Frillies and tie side will mimic an hourglass shape and a belt will create the illusion of curves. A bold red swimsuit or a bikini in a wild print will also achieve a more feminine overall appearance.

LSpace Stardust Fringe One-Piece, Depsi Cindy Nile


Long Torso  - 


THE CHALLENGE:
Whether you are tall or short with a long torso, you are still lacking in balance or proportion.

THE SOLUTION:
Chevron or strategically placed stripes will break up your vertical lines. Cut outs styles will break up your long shape and create the illusion of a waist. One-shoulder tops will create an interest in your upper body.

Cia Maritima Crocodile One Shoulder One Piece, Beach Bunny Sailor Chic Bikini

Pear Shaped - 


THE CHALLENGE:
You are bigger in the hips and thighs the waist and shoulders. Congrats you have the figure of every man's dream :) but how do you make the most of your bootilicious figure?

THE SOLUTION:
Try color blocking, pair a solid, dark bottom with a bright or print top to give your body more visual balance. A deep V neckline will draw the eye upwards. A high-cut leg will elongate the thigh. Solid colors will provide subtle accent to a figure that already has it going on. A soft molded cup will add more oomph to the bustline.

Cia Maritima Aqua and Green One Piece, Luli Fama Babalu Bikini

Busty - 

THE CHALLENGE:
You have a D or C cup yet want to have a fashionable bathing suit without worrying about digging straps or embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.

THE SOLUTION: Find tops with sturdy construction and support. Look for halter styles, wide straps
and wider support bands below the bust.

RYGY Desire Wine One Piece with Adjustable Top, Vitamin A Lemon Drop

All-Over Curves - 

THE CHALLENGE:
You have killer curves. Finding swimwear that you feel comfortable in and that looks great can be nerve wracking.

THE SOLUTION:
Don't run for the full-coverage boyshorts. Instead highlight your full feminine shape with a nice ruffle neckline, jewelry accents or body-hugging ruching. Minimize problem areas with a high-waist bikini or an all over pattern in a very small print.


RYGY Bonita Deep V One Piece, Vix Bia Orange Tube Top and Bottom


Tummy Control - 

THE CHALLENGE:
We all have had it a some point, a little more around the middle than we are happy with, not to worry there is hope.

THE SOLUTION:
A fold over waistband won't squeeze your tummy and lead to the dreaded muffin top. Ruching and draping will disguise any trace of a tummy. High-waisted retro bottoms are also very on trend for 2011.

Hermanny Satina Mikonos One Piece, Hermanny Palomino Halter Top and Bottom

Celebs Love AWB Designer Swimwear Brands



Celebrities in Hollywood live on the beach and have access to the top swimwear brands. So we are proud that they are always spotted in AWB designers. The Kardashian's have been snapped in sexy Beach Bunny Swimwear for a few years now, so it was natural when they joined forces with the brand and had the opportunity to design their own Beach Bunny collections. For Spring 2011, Kim Kardashian designed all-out-glam swimwear. She said she loves to get dressed up for the beach so you can see the nightlife inspiration reflected in fine fabrics and jewelry touches of her pieces. Kourtney Kardashian designs for spring are sweet and very fashionable, her Sailor Chic bikini incorporates Nautical Stripes, a strong trend this Spring.

Halle Berry has been photographed wearing a graphic print Cia Maritima bikini several times while strolling on the beach with her daughter. And shortly after giving birth a super-slim Kendra Wilkinson appeared on the cover of In Touch in the Despi Copacabana in Malibu.

Sexy Luli Fama bikinis are a favorite with models like Bar Rafeli. The brand racked up tons of coverage in the 2011 Sport's Illustrated Swimsuit Issue with models like Jessica White, Cintia Dicker and Izabel Goulart wearing the brands skimpy suits.

Style icons Eva Mendes and Gwyneth Paltrow look super chic in Vix and Vitamin A. And Hollywood girls love a breezy tunic. Vanessa Mannillo and a gal pal were snapped at a birthday event both wearing Hale Bob cover-ups.

As summer gets into gear we will see more and more celebs hitting the beach in the latest swimwear. See what they are wearing in our Facebook album here.
