    I realize it's already the end of July, but that doesn't mean swim season is over just yet! The recent end of Miami Fashion Week has all us Bees buzzing over the newest swimsuits and accessories; plus the stars say you're destined for at least another two months of fun in the sun! While you may be a little behind in picking up a whole slew of brand-new bathing suits, it's never too late to splurge on a cool caftan, pareo, maxi dress, or other means of keeping your sexy suit incognito until it's time to dive in. Not sure how you should cover-up in the latter half of summer? Let the fates be your guide! Leos will pack plenty of drama in a split-sleeve olive tunic and Gemini gals will bring out some inner Latin-flavored fire with an off-the-shoulder baby doll cover-dress.

    Lipsmacker Exfoliants and More Drugstore Bargain Beauty Bump-Ups!

    To look pretty on less cash, you could yoink your roommate's fancy conditioner and hope she doesn't notice. Or you could try out these drugstore and designer beauty bait-and-switches. Either way, you'll look so good only your stylist will know for sure what you did!


    1. Color formulas are generally the same among mascara products, so no need to spring for a department store version. Black is black at $7 or $20. But it is worth investing in a clean mascara wand or comb that you can use to separate your lashes before the cheaper one dries.


    2. Instead of giving yourself a spritz of pricey perfume, get a more subtle version of the scent all over your body. Spend less for the fragrance's body lotion or cream and blend with unscented generic-brand lotion.

    Vintage Fashionistas Get Chic In Caftans

    It shouldn't be hard to believe that caftans originated back in 14th-century Persia as garments for men. After all, they're super comfy and men tend to value comfort over fashion. You don't see men teetering along on four-inch heels or squeezing themselves into vise-like undergarments. And while the identity of the first female to appropriate a caftan for herself is unknown, women everywhere should cheer for her courage to step outside the fashion box. Now commonly chosen as beach cover-ups or attire for pool parties, you shouldn't overlook the power of a caftan for an elegant evening, too. Try one with a few chunky bracelets, flat jeweled sandals, or a head scarf to add a bohemian feel. Click the slideshow to see a chic collection of vintage caftans that pack a powerful fashion punch.

    If you're like me and shivering under blankets or still wearing sweaters and boots, now might be the best time to plan your spring break getaway. Whether you're going south of the border or perhaps the beaches of Miami, any place with sun and surf is worth going to! So you've got the location down, now it's time to plan what you're going to pack. When going on vacation, it's always tempting to try out a new style you wouldn't necessarily wear at home. However, the worst thing is to feel uncomfortable or self-conscious, during your well-deserved vacation no less! So stick to your style and stay with neutral colors you can mix and match. You can always be adventurous with the accessories you buy wherever you go, whether it's an armful of stacked bangles or a quintessential statement necklace.


    Another hint: making a list of what to pack is important because it will lessen the chance of forgetting something. The last time I forgot to pack without using a list, I didn't bring socks or a toothbrush! Click read more to see my list of spring break travel essentials and check out the slideshow for more ideas. Just remember to leave extra space in your suitcase or pack an empty bag for all the goodies you'll be buying! Read on for my ten spring getaway must-haves!

    Who says the only way to dress at the beach is skimpy? Well, you can still be skimpy, but wait 'til we get to the beach, alright? We're not in Europe, you know. For the sake of style and sensibility alike, choose a tunic to cover up with this summer! The light, airy, boho-like style should already be part of our spring and summer wardrobes, so slipping on a tunic is a great way to perfect your beach-going look. The assortment of colors and styles, and even price ranges, make these worry-free wraps a must-have summer accessory. Pair with a pair of shades and gladiator sandals and you can even transform some of these slideshow picks into out-and-about wear after a day in the sun!

    Miami Style: Rebecca Virtue Swimwear Embraces Green Fabrics

    Monica Milla on Aug 12, 2008 8:49 AM PDT
    A few weeks back I was invited to SPLASHION, a runway show featuring Rebecca Virtue swimwear, at the super hip club SET, in SoBe, where a Euro-preppy crowd regularly dances the night away! Becca's bikinis were to die for: super cool styles and colors with metallics, prints, rings and satins, gold cuffs, and newly launched bags and hats. The models were fantastic, with an urban sophistication and a great swing walk, big hair and the must-have glasses. I also found out, speaking to other fans there, that Becs has been using bamboo fabrics and fabric made from soy to show her respect for the environment. Nice! Check out my slideshow and get in line for her 2009 line!
