Dulce Luxe: August 2010

As I gear up for Labor Day weekend in Vegas, I couldn't help but notice my bathing suit department (better known as a corner in my closet) was running low. Sure, I have a few to last me 2 weeks if I was stranded on a deserted island, but on any given weekend getaway in the summer, we can never have too many bathing suits. There is just no exception, especially when packing for your summer vacay! Your guaranteed tons of laying out poolside and catching some rays, Sunday pool extravaganzas, ordering cocktails from the hot bartenders that are just too good to be true or taking long walks on the beach or boardwalk if your the relationship kinda girl. Either way, in any or all of these scenarios, we should always look sun kissed and ready to conquer anything. Where do we start? The bathing suit! Dress it up, dress it down...It's the summer essential every women needs to look and feel beautiful no matter your age or size. We are all models in our own given right. That said, with my bathing suit department running low, I started hyperventilating thinking about the 100+ degree weather, Saturday and Sunday pool parties, both day and night. It was exhausting trying to plan what I would wear. After all, I'll need some casual bathing suits, some flashy and some just slightly Brazilian. All for different occasions of course. My motto is, if any of my fashion departments are running low...a little more shopping is the way to go. That's where the holy grail of all swimsuit online shops happened. Swimspot!

What is Swimspot? Only the hottest online boutique for all things sexy under the sun! I've always had a hard time finding the perfect bathing suits when shopping online. No longer do we have to open multiple tabs on our web browser to find exactly what we're looking for. Swimspot is the one-stop shop if you're looking to buy designer swimwear! At Swimspot, you'll find designers like Guess, Reef, Ella Moss, Luxe, Hurley and so much more! Harbor designer fantasies with an idea in mind? They have a Bikini Builder to help you find a swimsuit that is sure to fit your style and preference. It's brilliant and a little inspiring if you ask me! The Bikini Builder allows us to virtually tune in to our inner style and create a look using an amazing selection of designer swimwear. I love the idea of not having the same bikini as 5+ girls at a Sunday rooftop pool party. Because it happens. And it shouldn't. Luckily, Swimspot has us covered and we can now create our own look, mixing and matching different tops and bottoms to ensure luxurious individuality. Swimspot is online shopping at its best! Don't know your size exactly? Check. They have a size chart that is easy to use and specific to each brand. Need a little inspiration? Done. They have a little section called "The Spot" featuring health and fitness topics, beauty tips, celebrity swimsuit sightings, and swimwear fashion advice! Oh, and before I forget...shall I mention the word FREE?? No, the swimsuits aren't free. But they do offer FREE shipping, returns and exchanges and I think we can all get used to that! So ditch the "Free shipping" promo codes because shipping is free both ways, everyday! After perusing the site for hours, it was like a breath of fresh air. On one single website, I managed to narrow down 2 Must-Have-Swimsuits for Vegas and even picked up a couple of savvy beauty tricks from The Spot. Looks like my swimsuit department just got a little bigger and I'm this much closer to my weekend getaway in Vegas! Hotel booked. Pool cabanas reserved. Dinner for 2? Reservations confirmed. Designer swimwear? In full effect! Swimspot is my newest guilty pleasure and I have a feeling it won't be a summer fling. After all, It's five o'clock somewhere and where it's winter in one place, the sun is shining in another. Visit www.Swimspot.com for year round, swimsuit luxury! Are you ready for the sun?
