Though all fashion designers are focused now on collection for a season to come, summer is still in its full swing, and some of you might be ready for a voyage or travelling to an exotic island. That is why you might be interested in a new collection of Swimsuits for Summer 2010 presented by Banco de Areia.

Banco de Areia is a successful Brazilian brand. The business was started by the designer Nadia Ribeiro who has been involved in fashion industry since she was 18. At first she owned a store of trendy designer clothes, then she opened a series of show rooms in Hawaii and Brazil.

Now Banco de Areia has been on the fashion market for over a decade. That resulted enough to turn the label into a recognizable one in all corners of the world. Banco de Areia pieces are famous for superb quality, hot looks, modern styles and comfortable designs.

What is no less important, the prices for swimsuits from Banco de Areia are ranging from $ 33 to $ 79. Is not that what every woman dreams of going on vacation?

The collection of swimsuits for Summer 2010 is awesome. Variety of colors, unusual patterns and appealing designs make it look super hot. Banco de Areia swimsuits range includes bandeau styles, string bikinis and one-piece suits. I personally adore color choice – some items feature patchwork technique while others are monotone and classy.

The face and body of the new collection is Brazilian beauty and supermodel Raica Oliveira. The distinctive feature of the collection is an unusual combination of tops with one pattern and panties with another. I do think these look fabulous. Banco de Areia allows you to touch the exotic and beautiful country of Brazil. Summer is not over yet, think about a new swimsuit.

To tell the truth it is just today that I have got to know about a Smart & Sexy lingerie brand. And my opinion that it is worth being known. Here it is.
Smart & Sexy is a well-established national lingerie brand created and designed by Ariela-Alpha International. By the way, it is one of the largest privately owned lingerie companies in the country. Their products are famous for their trendy designs, excellent quality, and great silhouettes to enhance not only your body but your confidence as well. Since the brand has become so popular, they decided to expand into swimwear. And today I present you a new Smart & Sexy collection of swimwear 2010.

The looks are just as stylish, sexy and fun.  I am amazed by the diversity of colors ranging from leopard and zebra prints up to solids in black and pink. The selection of swimwear styles is also great: in the collection there are push up halters, triangle halters, bikinis and tankinis.  I cannot but mentioning that bikinis are paired with the adorable full-coverage, side tie bikini bottom.

Representatives of the brand emphasize that the brand is dedicated to bringing women ‘affordable luxury’. That is what so many women on a budget need. Bringing luxury they do not forget about comfort, quality and fit. Talking about affordability I forget to mention that every item from Smart & Sexy collections is ranging from $ 5 to $ 20. The swimsuits that I described above cost $ 20 each. Now I understand what ‘We created this brand with you in mind’ means!

Often named as monokini swimsuits, monokini bathing suits, monokini one-piece, or trikinis, this sensuous and sexy style has been on the peak of popularity of the last season and shows no signs of disappearing this summer.

From the days of its appearance monokini has evolved a lot and now many fashion lovers turn their attention to their unusual and fabulous designs. Most women love the monokini because of the diversity of designs and variations that can be created from a traditional monokiki style.  Among the most popular are bandeau, halter, ring top and bottom, triangle and v-neck.

Designer monokinis are perfect for proportionate body shapes, usually looking best on tall women with hour-glass and apple shaped bodies and medium to large torsos. Among celebrities who have chosen monokini to wear are Jessica Alba, Britney Spears, Giselle Bundchen and other women with a beautiful body. The reason proportionate bodies look far better in monokini suits is that the one-piece suit only comes in one size. So, whereas a woman who has a C cup size and a small bottom can purchase a bikini separates size Large Top and Small bottom, she is not able to choose distinct top and bottom sizes on monokini bathing suits. And, of course, the monokini makes an emphasis on every curve of the body, so only confident and attractive women tend to choose this style.

By the way, do you know that the first monokini was invented to reveal bare breasts! Both men and women wore it. Those days monokini had a different look: bottom would attach all the way at the shoulders instead of at the hips.  These days we have a similar version of the bathing suit but only the boldest women dare to wear such a style. The price for the monokini can range now from $ 50 and up.
