Burning Up Red Hot: Color Alert

Looking to attract some attention this summer? Then have every eye on the beach drawn to you in your little red bikini. Red is the color of confidence, passion and romance. So it is no surprise that stepping out in an all red bikini or outfit isn't for the faint of heart. Looking to try the trend but need to take a baby step? Try starting with a bright red nail to add a bold accent to any look. Other great ways to rock red this season are by adding in accessories. A statement necklace or a great bag in your favorite shade of red is an easy go to whenever your outfit needs a little pop of color. Ready for the full length look? Red shorts and a tank top are the perfect combination for a day out. Swap out for a sexy red dress and heels for night time fun! However you choose to wear this color you are sure to get the attention you are looking for.

Caviar Anyone? Nail Polish that is!

 

Here at All Wet Beachwear we love anything that adds a little something extra to our already great bikinis. One of the things we are most excited for is the new Ciate London Caviar Manicures. We have been patiently awaiting its arrival (well some of us have been more patient than others) and the time is finally here. So pick out your favorite combination and follow along with us. Let's get to painting!

How to Guide: 7 Steps to a Caviar Manicure 

STEP 1: Ensure any old nail polish has been fully removed. Try Ciate London Nail Polish Remover. It comes in a variety of delicious chocolate flavored scents.

STEP 2: Once the old polish is removed, trim, shape, and buff your nails. Remember to wash your hands before proceeding to step 3 so that all of the remover and any debris has been removed.

STEP 3: Add a thin layer of base coat to prep your nails before adding the polish color.

STEP 4: Add one thin coat of the nail polish found in the caviar manicure kit or try one of their other amazing colors. Look for complimenting colors that work well with the sprinkles that you will be applying later. (Tip: Spread the first coat out and allow it to completely dry before applying the second. If you apply both coats too quickly it will take forever to dry and is more likely to nick.)

STEP 5: Apply the second coat of nail polish (Tip: have the caviar ready to apply as you don't want the second coat to dry). Then carefully sprinkle the caviar beads on top of each nail until fully covered. 

STEP 6: Gently press down on top of the beads to set in place in the polish. Allow it to dry completely.

STEP 7: Add a top coat to seal and protect your beautiful new nails and you're good to go!

A Perfect Pairing: AWB + Ciate London

 Everyone loves a perfect pairing, peanut butter and jelly, wine and cheese, or even Angelina and Brad. Well we are excited to introduce our newest pairing that might just become one of the greats. The moment that we have been waiting for has arrived, All Wet Beachwear and Ciate London. Nothing goes together better than a great nail polish with your favorite little bikini!

Ciate London, pronounced see-are-tey, was founded by Charlotte Knight and became famous the world over for their stunning caviar manicures. They have redefined and redesigned everything about your traditional nail polish. Starting from the inside out, they have amazing rich and vibrant pigmented colors that last. It has also been formulated for easy application and provides a smooth and even finish. The brush itself is a 250 bristle flat brush design with a long handle to provide the best strokes each time. The uniquely shaped bottle has an ergonomic design that sits better in your hand and allows for maximum control while applying. No present, even to yourself, would be complete without a small black satin bow.

The current collection is filled with so many unique colors you will have no problem finding the perfect shade to match all of your swimwear. Ciate London offers bright and bold, pretty and pastels, dark and dangerous, and I can't forget sparkles in every color! With so many option to choose from it's nearly impossible to pick just one. In addition to their nail polishes Ciate also offers manicure sets as well.  Cavier, neon glow in the dark, and flower manicures are other great ways to let your creative side run wild. Did I mention how delicious their nail polish removers smell??? I know what you're thinking, perhaps I shouldn't be sniffing nail polish remover. Perhaps you are right, but yet another great benefit about this brand is that the remover is acetone free! So as I was saying the Chocolate scented nail polish removers smells dangerously good!

As with everything we sell here at AWB we had to check out the product first hand and we are definitely pleased by the results. With spring finally here what better way to test our newest product and prepare for our bikini filled weekend ahead by painting our nails in one of their bright and rich colors. The results were amazing. The color is saturated and really holds up well over the course of the week. This color is going to be just the pop I am looking for to pair with our new Raja Embroidery Bandeau Bikini.

So while your picking out your next killer bikini check out Ciate London nail polish for the perfect finishing touch!

Bikini Outfit Of the Day!

As the weather is slowly warming up we can't help but get excited over the much anticipated arrival of summer! With Memorial Day slowly coming around the corner I just couldn't wait any more to start up with our Bikini Outfit of the Day.

What better way to show off your soon to be tan skin than in this sexy white triangle bikini. This suit is one of the many great new pieces in the PilyQ Barcelona's new Summer 2014 collection. Multicolored embroidery detailing adds a flirtatious touch to this classic white bikini. With the option of Full or Brazilian cut coverage this is the perfect suit for everyone.

However, what is a suit without some amazing accessories? My personal favorite pairing is Ciate London's Halo nail polish. It's a beautiful pearlized white color that will help bring out the bright colors of the suit and will compliment your sun kissed skin tone. The best part about this color is that it can be applied lightly for a translucent sheen or in multiple coats for a mesmerizing iridescent pearl effect.
Slip on these David Yurman braided bracelets and some gold toned Ray-Ban Aviators for a cool and easy addition. We finished off this look with a Michael Kors tote in a neutral color that has plenty of space for all your beach day necessities!
