I <3 Insight Bathing Suits

Colorful, frilly, bright, neon bathing suits are the ones for me this summer, and Insight's got its sight set on these essential elements. I'd even wear the one-piece! Why put on a drab-colored, plain-looking, mono-colored bikini when the sun's out and you have nothing to do but lay on the beach?! You might as well enhance the feeling of summer by wearing it! Plus, everyone on the beach will envy how great your sun-kissed glow looks against those bright colors. Snag 'em before everyone get's 'em! Buy 'em on the 80's Purple website. These are my top five spankin' bright suits:

Happy sunning!

MTV Movie Awards: My Faves

I don't like chewing people out for wearing the 'wrong' thing, because I think fashion is an art of expression; it encapsulates the artistic and expressionistic side of us. My favorites follow in no particular order:

Leighton Meester

Lauren Conrad

Kristen Stewart

Rumer Willis and Jamie Chung (lesbians?)

Hanna Beth

Whitney Port

Vanessa Hudgens

Sienna Miller

Bruno

Jumping for Jumpsuits!

I love them. And I don't think they have that look that only a certain type of person (7 foot tall, anorexic model-type) can wear either. There's a jumpsuit for everyone, so snag your favorite(s)! They're versatile too-not fussy or fancy-just slip it on and you're ready to walk the summery catwalk! I personally love the girly and fun floral frilly ones. I just bought an adorable yellow floral one from Topshop in Soho the other week (posted below), and it's definitely one of my favorite pieces in my closet. Pair them with espadrilles, platform sandals, or go for a nighttime/fall look and wear tights and heels.  I'm jumping for joy for these jumpsuits in particular:

Topshop

Free People

Mod Cloth

Nasty Gal

What Comes Around Goes Around

Vena Cava

Piperlime: Underrated

Here are my top ten:

Ranging from $40 to $300, it's safe to say piperlime.com is a great first-stop online destination for summer shoe shopping. You know you're getting a deal when it's in the Old Navy/Gap family. The tribal thing is definitely in this summer, and for me, fringe is definitely out (sorry Pocahontus fans). I've always been into neutrals, since they go with almost everything, along with black. Zippers are fab as well, as you can see on the pretty floral sandal. 

Wisdom extraction recovery update: I'm doing pretty well-- I haven't popped any Vicadin yet, and I'm enjoying my House-watching marathon (and blogging of course!). I just wish the right side of my face would deflate a little....

Mad for Matthew

                                                   my favorite look

Matthew Williamson for H&M's looks this spring/summer are fun, colorful and downright affordable. This line is better than Christmas for us bargain-hunters. I can't wait to get my hands on that fantabulous frock and those badass studded belts: belt + dress = delicious combination. This is definitely my first retail therapy destination after I recover from my wisdom teeth extraction that I have to suffer through tomorrow. Nothing stops my sweet tooth for candy-colored clothes!

Yes, I'm one of those: Mary-Kate an Ashley are my style heroes

Pouty-lipped, alien-eyed and gorgeous. In good company with Victoria Beckham, these stylish other-worldly twins stand out among the world's most fashionable. At the annual Metropolitan Institute's Costume Gala, Ash looks clean and expertly sophisticated in white, and funkier Mary-Kate is one of the few that could pull this dress off so well. Maybe I like them so much because in first grade I convinced my entire class that I was an alien (I know, I was a weirdo). I also share their lack of height, and you know what? We work it.
