Behind the Scenes at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week


Modelinia covered the best-of-the- best swimwear lines during the Mercedes Benz Swim Week this past July. Blogger Bianca Posterli of Modelinia made a pit stop at The Shore Club where several of the hot swimwear brands SwimSpot.com carries were showcased. Some of my personal faves! Here is a little we uncovered…

Bianca ranted and raved about the nautical inspired theme Splendid has again for 2011. Most of the Splendid bikinis that were showcased had stripes featuring hues of blues and reds and greens. To add to the nautical theme Splendid had rope accents to tie the look together (yes, the pun was intended!).

She ventured over to Hurley where it was all about the swim bottoms. Whether it was a white bikini or a blue bikini, the must have trend was ruching and ruffles on the back side! We can’t wait to see this trend in the OC in 2011!

She also shared a sneaky peak into the 2011 Tommy Hilfiger swimwear line. It consisted of high-waisted and vintage bikinis mixed with great patterns and prints. I have the perfect “keep that big ol’ sun out of my eyes” hat that will go perfect with the vintage look!

Thank you Modelinia for the behind-the-scenes footage from the Mercedes Benz Swim Week in Miami. Can’t wait to see more from these great brands!

  • Athena’s 2012 Collection Suits Your StyleAs we fly into 2012, Athena has an amazing new collection. It includes updates from the 2011 Maldives Collection. With Slim-Power lining and shirring details, Athena’s new collection gives you the right amount of tummy control and will help cover up all those imperfections for those days at the beach. You will be seeing a lot of cute tankinis, slimming one pieces, and stylish bikinis all year long from our collection.
  • Look Good, Feel GoodFall is finally here! Time to dig up those scarves, boots, and cardigans buried deep inside your closet. In terms of fashion, this is definitely my favorite time of year – I especially love the bold pops of color that are trending this season. And of course, the layers! But unfortunately, being bundled up in sweaters and coats doesn’t quite give me the motivation to work out. I won’t be sporting a bikini any time soon anyways so what’s the point, right? Wrong! We’re all aiming for that perfect beach body once Spring rolls along, so why not start working for it now? Getting toned and fit is a gradual process—although I’m sure we all wish it would happen overnight. Swimsuit season will be coming around the corner before you know it, so save yourself from the intense dieting and exercise the week before spring break and start now!
  • Feelin' Nautical?Feelin' nautical? Hit the deck with Nautica's Classic Solids Underwire One Piece Bathing Suit! This slimming one piece suit sports an underwire feature to provide optimal support, comfort, and fit. The white straps create a great contrast against the navy and the sweetheart neckline sets an irresistible modern twist on this maillot. To cover up, try Nautica's Under the Sea Tunic. The white and navy stripe print of the tunic perfectly compliments the solid suit, creating a chic sailor look.
