Hot Swimwear Fashion Trend

The pendulum is beginning to swing from flesh baring swimwear to a more covered up look in swimsuits. The retro style tops and bottoms are getting bigger leaving more to the imagination. Tops are larger and the new bottoms are waist high and lower on the leg than a bikini bottom (not cut to reveal too much). -
Long on Style, the Maxi Dress
Females are taken with the maxi dress now that summer has arrived. The maxi dress is comfortable, cool, feminine, and can hide figure flaws like large thighs. Flattering styles and colors can give you a taller slimmer appearance too. The right length is what looks best on you. The ankle length shows off the lattest summer sandals, flats or platform wedges. However many women prefer to wear their maxi's slightly covering their feet for a classy look. A maxi dress is a versatile and practical addition to your summer wardrobe. The maxi is a great choice for any occasion. It can be worn around town to do your errands, sightseeing or for a casual party dress. They are great for a summer wedding too.

Hemlines are Making A Downward Move
Short is no longer chic! Of course the mini skirt has not disappeared, but it is no longer as "Hot" as it has been in the past. The last couple of seasons designers have been adding longer length hemlines to some of their new styles. Dresses and skirts are creeping back in popularity with hemlines anywhere from the knees to the ankles. These longer length, retro-inspired, hemlines are the hottest trend in women's fashion this season. -
Print Pants, Can You Wear Them?
Designers have designed bold patterns & print pants with stripes, zigzags, flowers and animal prints, etc. for their collections this spring & summer. The starlets are all over Hollywood wearing them. Is this a trend most women can wear and look fabulous in? Unfortunately the answer is a big NO. You have to be thin/skinny to pull off looking good in printed pants whether they are fitted or baggy. Any prints will call attention to your bottom half and add a few pounds there too. Just because something is trendy and hot doesn't suggest you need it in your wardrobe. Wear what flatters your body type. Always accentuate your positive.
