The style trends of beach and pool wear tend to coincide with the runway fashions of the season. Currently, we are in a military overhaul with streaks of pastels and lace breaking up the masculine vibe. Look for swimsuits that can play into both of these trends so you can stay cool and chic even with the rays of the sun beating down.
The daytime pool party scene is all the rage in the warmer weather cities, like our own, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Clubs and hotels are taking full advantage of this new way to allow clientele to flaunt from day to night while relaxing poolside. And if you plan to hit one of these famous pool parties, you have to look the part.
Shades of Summer: Green is a great color to pair with olive skin or as an alternative to the traditional black. Purple with gold accents is also a big combo for summer. Don’t be afraid to mix patterns, it’s another great way to stand out from the crowd and show your bold knowledge of what is truly “in” for the season.

They play up the idea of mixing sexy nighttime bedroom looks with pool ready functionality. If you have a trip planned to Rehab in Vegas or Intervention in San Diego – this is your go to bikini brand. Shop at beachbunnyswimwear.com. (pictured left)

When it comes down to it, fashion is all about individuality. First comes your own personal confidence, which is the key to any look. Then choose a suit that “suits” your style while staying on trend. If you keep these tips in mind, I promise the free drinks will be a-flowin at San Diego pool parties and all the ladies (and maybe a few guys) will be wondering where you picked up such a savvy ensemble.
