Are You Ready For Swimwear?

Swimwear time is here again, so get ready to update your summer staples! Trends in swimwear this summer have swimsuits and cover-ups going hand in hand; you can’t buy one without the other because it’s all about the complete package. We’ve lined up all the best swimwear trends of the season. Take a look at the top 6 trends in swimwear and their cover-ups that we fell in love with!
1. SIDE-TIE BIKINIS
The most popular swimsuit of the season is the side-tie bikini. The ability to tie your swimsuit into an exact fit is sublime, to say the least. Look for one with interesting and artistic prints like the Yellow Polka Dot Bikini from Ujena. When you’re done with the sun, cover up with a fun Gauze Tie Robe available in white or black and hop on your bike for a quick ride.

2. CLASSIC HALTER BIKINIS
Talk about a classic look for fun in the summer: the halter bikini. The classic halter bikini is fabulously structured with wide straps and a few interesting details. Wide straps tend to balance out most women’s problem areas while still allowing plenty of skin to show through. The halter bikini is always elegant and sexy. The halter bikini is flattering to any neck and bust. Pair these hot little bikinis with a Ruffled Sarong, available in 9 great colors, and you have a total diva outfit to wear all day and night.

3. RETRO BIKINIS
Just like high waisted pants and skirts, Retro Bikini is also raised to the natural waistline. Think perfect bathing beauty looks with bandeau tops and slightly updated lines. These bikinis can be bright and full of design or bold and solid in color. Either way, they are a smash! To complete the look poolside, throw on a classic Babydoll Cover Up.

4. RUFFLED BIKINIS
All girls love ruffles! Try this one, the Lilac Ruffled Bikini by Ujena. If you're feeling really daring, try this Ruffled Thong Bikini that's available in white or black. Straight from the beach, throw on a Luxurious Sheer Cover Up and you're off!

5. GEOMETRIC ONE-PIECES
Bold patterns and geometric shapes meet in colorful corners on summer’s fun swimsuits. Who says a one piece swimsuit can't be bold, chic, and perfect for being admired poolside. To complete the fashionable look, pair your one piece with a sheer cover up.

6. GAUZE SWIMSUITS
We love the bohemian feel of a gauze swimsuit. The look of handcrafted perfection is unique and completely wearable. Mirror colors and patterns with a long sheer sarong that can be tied at the top or worn as a skirt.

You will find your favorite! Though it was hard to choose, my favorite this year is the French Espresso. I'll be kicking this one poolside this year along with the Brown O Dress as my cover, which is also made in several other colors.

You can find all of these and more at Giggle Bug Boutique. We love swimwear, and have are excited to share our 2009 lines with all of you!

Happy Bikini Shopping!

Peace-
