Fab Flats to match our New Swim Styles

It is surprisingly tricky to find the perfect flat sandal. Beach flats have to be easy to slip on, comfortable and cute. They also have to be constructed with quality materials that are durable enough to withstand the wet and sanding conditions. We scoped out a few hot new pairs that would be the perfect accent to some of our new swim styles.

Beach Essentials Part II

After you score the perfect cover-up from one of our fabulous designers, feel free to accessorize as much or as little as you want. Although we are more laid back and strictly stick to our flip flops and shades, I’m seeing more and more fedoras and jewelry on the beach. Whether you like a floppy hat or something smaller, it’s definitely super practical and also very stylish you can protect your precious skin while looking chic!
Even though we opt for minimal accessories on the beach, it’s always smart to keep a cool bangle or long necklace handy with the right cover-up, you can easily take your beach babe self off the beach and somewhere casual and an accessory can really add some extra oomph! If you are in to accessorizing while you take the sun, remember gold tones look best in the sun. We also think you should keep it simple and stick to one or two statement pieces don’t forget, you are on the beach after all!

Beach Essentials Part I

When it comes to hitting the beach or pool, we like to consider ourselves seasoned pros at All Wet Beachwear! We have perfected our personal beach babe styles and can efficiently pack a beach bag in mere minutes for ourselves or our clients. With summer winding down in certain parts of the world, this is the last chance you’re going to get to soak up the sun! So while you may have already stocked up on the perfect bikini and a roomy beach bag, you’re still lacking major essentials like a cover-up, shades, and sandals! Even if you’re a no muss no fuss type of gal, you obviously still need flip flops, right?
We personally think the most important accessory is the cover-up; you can easily feel super chic even if you’re barefoot without any makeup on! One of our go-to beach tips is keeping a summer scarf in our beach bags if we decide to go for a quick stroll and don’t want to throw on my cover-up just tie the scarf around your waist like a sarong! When it comes to cover-ups, fun prints and over-sized shirts seem to be really popular this season, and don’t fret about mixing patterns it’s one of the hottest trends, especially on the beach (just make sure the colors compliment each other). If you want to accentuate your waist, simply add a rope belt that you can tie on. Since it’s a cover-up, you can go for a low neckline or opt for something super revealing, as long as you’re comfortable!

White After Labor Day?

Who wears white after Labor Day? All Wet Beachwear says, everyone should! That’s right, the old adage, never wear white after Labor Day is now out of style. Just look at some of the fall fashions coming down the runway and anyone can see that wearing white after the first weekend in September is the latest fashion trend.

It use to be that fall and winter fashion dictated that one wear dark colors like oranges, browns and good old black. But the times are changing and fashion trend setters like Gucci are sending models down the fall/winter runway in white.  This can apply to your winter swimwear as well.

Whether you're taking a winter vacation or soaking up the sun in your back yard don't count out white swimwear.  The 2011 line is out and includes fantastic one and two piece suits.  White sandals you ask? Yes footwear in white is also a fashion do.

Its almost 2011 and times are changing. Forget the old school way of thinking and don't pack away your white.

Swimwear Do's and Don'ts

Looking your best, feeling comfortable and keeping on top of the latest fashions can be difficult to say the least. But don’t worry, All Wet Beachwear is here to help! Here are some Do’s and Don'ts we think every lady should know:

Do wear the right color suit:

Blonds look their best in pastel colors like light pink, lavender and mint green.

Brunettes will also benefit from a beautiful pastel bikini but can, if the mood strikes, wear more vivid colors like red, deep purple and orange.

Black haired beauties should consider rich wintry colors like emerald green, icy blues and luscious pinks.

Redheads do better in blues, browns, and golden yellows.

Still not sure which color suit to get? Black and white generally go with every hair color.

Don’t wear the wrong style suit for your body type:

Bandeau tops may help limit tan lines but should not be worn by busty ladies. These strapless tops can’t support a larger chest leaving the busty woman pulling up her bikini top all day and avoiding those waves.

To enhance a smaller chest try wearing a bikini top with layers of tiered ruffles.  This look will instantly add volume and give the illusion of a fuller chest. Try our Despi Cindy- Etnopop.

Do show your style with the right accessories:

Cover ups are all the rage these days! Whether you’re attending a lavish pool side event or playing around on the beach cover ups take your swimwear style to another level.

Pick the right footwear.  If you can walk across the sand in a pair of stilettos, you deserve a gold medal, but it’s still a Don’t. Instead try one of our elegant sandals or if you want that causal look we suggest the simple flip flop.

Honeymoon Prepared: From Swimsuits to Sandals

You’ve just gotten married and are ready to head to the tropics for a much anticipated honeymoon. What do you pack? Keep in mind you will be spending the majority of your days on beautiful white beaches and nights dancing under the stars. Make sure to pack the right clothes, keeping all eyes on the bride.

Most brides spend countless hours prepping to look their best for that one special day.  Don't let months of dieting, working out and grooming go to waste. Make sure to pack some sexy swimwear to show off all that hard work to your new hubby.

Swimwear

Be sure to bring several suits to fit your mood and show your new husband how stylish his bride is.  We suggest bringing at least three suits, a stunning one piece, flirty two piece and of course a sexy two piece as well.

Despi Diamond 1 Piece: This white one-piece double strap halter with dramatic plunging neckline and elegant tie with stone detail is the perfect honeymoon swimwear. Just because it isn’t your wedding day doesn’t mean you aren’t still the blushing bride.

Poko Pano Cabana 2 Piece: The bride should always be simply beautiful and this glamorous, white, solid two piece will assure you are. It has a twisted bandeau top with molded cups for support and ties in the back for a subtly sexy look. The adjustable side bottom features square gold hardware to ad a splash of color.

Paola Robba Vanessa: Every honeymoon requires at least one sexy two piece. Our red, U ring, bandeau top will definitely grab your new husband's eye. Its low rise tanga single tie-side bottom with white rope detail on the left hip adds just a hint of your newly wed status.

Cover Ups

When packing for a tropical honeymoon the focus tends to be on swimsuits but don’t forget to pack at least two cover ups. Cover ups protect you from the sun and can be worn when dining in and outdoors, keeping your look stylish, day and night.

Vix Daisy Tunic: This white plunging v-neck tunic with daisy embroidery on sleeves and bottom is perfect for day time wear on the beach or a quick walk into town.

Hale Bob "Cabana" Blue Silk Chiffon Beaded Tunic Top: Going for a more sexy/sophisticated look? Our Cabana Color Me Pretty Sand-Washed Silk Chiffon long sleeve beaded V neck tunic top is perfect for an evening sipping Mai Tai’s and dancing under the stars.

Sandals

Now that you’ve packed your suits and cover ups its time to focus on footwear.  Although you will be spending most of your trip barefoot on the beach, don’t forget that the perfect sandal is key to a great look.

Mystique Sandals Silver Beaded Thong: One word sums these sandals up, seductive. Our silver studded thong sandals will sparkle in the sun or under the stars and go beautifully with any party dress or bikini. They feature a 1/2 inch stacked heel with a tan leather sole and comfortable suede lining on the straps. Get ready to dance the night away!

Mystique Sandals White and Gold Sandals: Every tropical honeymooner needs a casual sandal. These white and gold sandals are single toned with a pretty white pearl centerpiece. To give them that seashore feel these sandals are finished with tiny seashells and golden straps.

Now get packing and enjoy your honeymoon!
