Bikini Baby

It's just about bathing suit weather so here are some hot suits and some hot deals. You should never skimp when it comes to bikinis, on price or fabric. A good bathing suit can last you a few summers and one or two new ones a year and your collection will grow quickly. Just don't go bargain basement quality or dental floss thin. It's always good to have a sexy basic black and a white that has proper lining. Plus a super cute one to mix it up.

It's like organic man.

It's always luxurious to save the planet. So here are some Organic products that preserve our environment and they smell and feel great.
Lush products are used by celebrities everywhere. And I mean everywhere, they have over 300 stores around the world.They are famous for all their products being hand made and using all of the freshest ingredients. Just the name makes me want to smear it all over me.
The Body Shop is also world wide with over 1,ooo stores. They are very well know and easily found in your local mall. They offer several products containing organic ingredients.

Most of these products are similar in price. But if you can afford the shipping Lush is great. They have tons of great products with unique names. So be Lush if you must or just hit The Body Shop for instant gratification.

Wear It On Your Face

I love all things luxurious including Make up. Two of my favorites are Dior and CoverGirl. Both great products with their own great qualities but on different ends of the budget. Although I love good old CoverGirl, on the days I can afford it I buy Dior. It just makes a girl feel good to whip out that gloss with a fabulous name attached to it. I might not be able to afford to drape my body in it but I can at least wear it on my face.

The Short Of It

When it comes to looking hot in shorts NOT looking like a prostitute is key. That means stay away form too tight and too short. Any thing with "stretch" should be reserved for the gym only. Lets look at a perfect example of a big fat no-no short.



First off they are very short. There is barley an inseam there. They are in fact stretch yet also denim They have a lace closure. No one, no matter how skinny or tall would look good in these.

Now here are some great examples of shorts that look good on just about everyone. Just make sure you get the correct size. These shorts are smart looking and comfortable and no "Johns" will be wondering "how much" when your wearing these.



Old Navy 19.50 Target 14.99
Cotton- can't go wrong. Chambray and a great cut in 2 lenghts.



Both are J Crew 58 and 45. The cuff adds a great detail and they come in
some really great colors. Will last you many summers.
