Agua Bendita Swimwear 2011 - Three, New, Sweet-As-Can-Be Collections
Agua Bendita Swimwear brings on the girly stuff in such a sexy way that makes every one of their styles absolutely adorable. Honestly, I had a difficult time narrowing down my favorite swimsuits and beachwear from this huge, 3-part collection for 2011. Each and every bikini, swimsuit, monokini and cover-up is a sure seller. How to choose?
Not only do they have the killer looks and styles, but they have also employed two of the hottest swimwear models, Bar Refaeli and Candice Swanepoel to show off their wares. Although, this label is from Columbia, they shot the 2011 collections, "On The Rocks", "Black Tie", “Happy Hour,” at some of the swankiest pools and rooftops in LA, giving the collection a hip, cosmopolitan feel. They're presentation made me love this swimsuit label all the more.
So, here's a small sampling of some of my Agua Bendita Swimwear faves:

Salinas Swimwear 2011 - What's In Store For This Iconic Swimwear Brand?
Ya just gotta love Salinas Swimwear...they've kept it all together during these turbulent times and still managed to come up with some cute, new, cleverly styled bikinis. The 2011 Salinas Swimwear Collection is now being unveiled at Tropi-Ties and it's to die for. They've gone sweet on us this year and put up some sexy, little, ruffled numbers, done in feminine florals.
They've also gone bright and bold in 2011 with a rainbow plaid bikini.
Bikinis and prints aren't the only thing that Salinas Swimwear did well this season. They have a couple of eye catching one piece swimsuits, as well as a sexy, black, tasseled bikini that personally, I just love.
Salinas Swimwear is a master at blurring the line between a young, junior/teen look and a grown up girl style. I think that's why everyone loves them so much. That, and that true sense of fun that is inherent in each and every Salinas swimsuit. They've managed to keep their prices reasonable too. (Although, I have to say that the most expensive ones tend to be my favorites...such is life.)
The 2011 Salinas Swimwear is arriving this fall. Stop by and preview the new Salinas Swimwear Collection before it hits the shelves at Tropi-Ties Swimwear

Mara Hoffman Swimwear - Resort 2011 Collection
Mara Hoffman did it bright and bold for 2011...no surprise there. Once again, she has come up with some KILLER swimsuits for the 2011 Cruise season. She made use of all those neons and psychedelic prints from the 60's and brought them to current day fashion. She's also continued with her graphic tribal designs. I'm totally lovin' this new, strappy one piece swimsuit, Batik Red Net Back Maillot, both front and back.
The Bandeau has been the darling of swimsuit fashion lately and Mara did her take on it with a clever, two-toned, underwire top. She did it in several combos...mixing bright solids with one of her many, custom prints. Here's her Batik Red Underwire Bikini done in red/tribal.
She also did in a cool color palette of blues and lime with her Batik Sky Underwire Bandeau Bikini. 
Of course, we'll still be seeing more of those gorgeous cover-ups from Mara Hoffman in 2011. This season she even did skin tight leggings. OMG! How sexy is THAT?
It will be interesting to see if the Mara Hoffman fans go for them. The 2011 Mara Hoffman Swimwear will be in stock just in time for the holidays...just in time to get out of the dreary cold and head for sunny beaches and warm, balmy climes.

Karla Colletto Swimwear 2011 - Looking Forward To Fall
Karla Colletto keeps coming up with more and more classic, one piece swimsuits. I love my Karla swimsuits...and I've seen a LOT of swimsuits in my career. Granted, there was a day when I wore nothing but the tiniest string bikinis, but now that I'm, "more mature," (IE; not 20 years old and hanging a kid on each arm,) I'm so glad that Karla is around. I always feel sexy and beautiful in my KC swimsuits. The fit is impeccable, the styling is classic, the the quality and workmanship is beyond compare. Plus, the support is where I need it, with Karla's hidden, floating under wire bodice. I will never settle for a cheaply made swimsuit from the discount chain store or catalog again. EVER!!! I slip my KC swimsuit on and head for the pool knowing that I look beautiful and that the swimsuit won't come apart while doing my laps and lazing through the afternoon. After all...enjoying the beach and pool isn't a matter of demographics. We should all enjoy our day in the sun.
The new Karla Colletto Swimwear 2011 Collection is full of fanciful bathing suits. I absolutely love the Black Piping One Piece Swimsuit and have ordered an extra one just for "Moi." The color is fabulous, the styling superb and the fit...oh, the fit....is like nothing else. I feel at least 20 pounds thinner! Whether, your 25, or 55, this swimsuit will look divine on everyone. This is a bathing suit that I can actually wear in front of friends and family and know that I look, "killer," in it! There are no regrets. So, it's on to fall...on to romantic escapes...tropical beaches, sweet days lazing by the pool with my, "Honey," and time for a new Karla Colletto Swimsuit!

It's On To Vegas...The 2011 Fashion Trade Shows, MAGIC and More
The Las Vegas fashion trade shows are daunting to say the least. There's MAGIC (no magicians,) POOL (no pool,) PROJECT (no construction workers,) ISAM (NOT "Sam I am,") CURVE (no windy road,) SLATE (no rock quarry) and I'm sure that I'm forgetting a few more spin-off shows. This is some serious sourcing. Pack your gym shoes, bring practical clothes and don't forget your wallet...Las Vegas isn't a cheap town by any means. Seriously, a buyer should consider doing some long distance training before going, because honey, you're going to walk miles and miles and miles. This is a marathon show! Then there are marathon parties too...which I advise you to go early, leave early...you're going to need your strength and wits about you for that 9AM appointment. For a fashion buyer, this is probably a group of the most important shows that you can attend, so be smart about it. I only say this because I've seen good sourcers bite the dust many, MANY times in LV and it isn't pretty when they get back home, so be forewarned.
:::sigh:::
OK, I've made my point and now you know why I am not going this year. I'm sending you, one of our savviest girls, to hunt for a few needed items for the catalog. I know that you'll do great. You can battle the crowds, swelter in the heat, and nurse the hangover. You're only there for a day...in and out. How much damage can be done?
"Parties?" NO
"Gambling Expense Account?" NO
"VIP Club?" NO
"A Headlining Show?" NO
"Dinner at Le Cirque?" NO
"Well, Can I have a new bikini for the trip?" NO
Just come back with some killer stuff and in one piece.
MAGIC is serious business.
