Bikini & Swimsuit: summer 2017

When summer arrives every woman begins to think about the fateful test suit and how to try to be as trendy and fashionable as possible in the sea, studying the better models of swimsuits and bikinis to be on top.

To choose the costume that values us and harmonize all our forms, that highlights our strengths and hide the weaker ones, is not so simple. Especially when we are in front of numerous proposals and numerous models of bikinis and swimsuits for this summer 2017.

The colors, shapes and details of the bikinis of the beachwear collection in vogue this summer 2017 allow us to choose the bikini that we prefer: a band bikini, with light applications and sequins, push-up, a swimsuit, sportswear for the athletic women , triangle and many other models available to create the beach look that we like.

Band

Band bikinis are a great return for this Summer 2017. They are realized in the most modern and geometric versions and or in the version of the 50s with the high life model that gives a very trendy vintage touch to our look. The band in padded bras allow more support and freedom of movement, and they can be enriched with fringes or plain and they can be in special and wild colors that recall the African, Indian and Brazilian style, with romantic and floral prints.

50s version

The high-waisted bikini, in a more retro version, return in vogue for this summer 2017 as the last one. They are realized in woven textures, patterned fabric, with small and large polka dots or stripes, that reflect the marine style.

The must-have for this summer 2017 is the floral and patterned version of bikini that recalls the Hawaiian and African style. Bikinis and swimsuits can be realized in brilliant colors, geometric prints and colored circles. These bikinis represent a union between the old and classic version and the new and modern ones, reinventing vintage with a touch of modernity.

Neoprene fabric

The bikinis in neoprene fabric are really famous from last summer 2016. These bikinis are comfortable thanks to their fit and they highlight the natural curves thanks to the padding of this kind of fabric. They are loved not just because of the multiple bright colors, like the emerald green or the bright red, but also because of the patterned versions. For this summer 2017 you can also match models with exotic and sensual floral prints.

Jewel

Perfect for strolling by the sea under the sun, or for a beach party , the jewel bikini or swimsuit decorated with lights and lighting applications will dominate this hot summer 2017. They have transparencies, sleeves long braids or weaves to enrich the look also on the sail. The jewel bikini, like last summer, remain a must/have also forthis summer 2017, and it is perfect for women who want to feel elegant, refined and sensual even on the beach.

Switsuit

The swimsuit is designed to dress the woman who wants to combine elegance and comfort, latest fashion and classical forms, present and vintage with a mischievous eye. So this kind of swimsuit, with details applied on plain or with simple, elongated shapes, adds a touch of elegance even on the sail. With delicate patterns, never excessive and good balanced, the swimsuit will make you feel sure of yourself, beautiful and elegant in every occasion, from the sea up to the aperitif in the pool in the evening.

Sport bikini

It is born the sports model of bikini, comfortable to wear and racing. It is inspired to man-s models,  for women who love the sea sports such as beach volleyball, surf and windsurf. A comfortable and opaque model at the top that allows the wearer to remain stylish without losing the maximum comfort and mobility for sports. For this summer 2017 it is one of the better models with the two-piece with a high waist fashion and elegant. The "sports" bikinis give an absolute femininity, especially playing with textures of a thousand African and Aztec colors that cannot be unnoticed.

Sunglasses. Spring-Summer 2017

Dear readers,

this spring finally seems to be arrived with high temperatures and beautiful weather. This is the best moment in order to pull outside from the closet the lighter  and colorful clothes, in occasion of the Spring season. But the must-have for this Spring-Summer 2017 is already delineated: SUNGLASSES cannot lack!

Round models of the years ‘70 or glasses with lens vanished on the tones of yellow, blue and violet; glittered and square frames, with the shape of drop and transparent lens to be different, or the calico motif to be classic. One model of sunglasses really fashionable is the squared model and the one on the tonality of pastel colors. The models with eyes of cat’s shape by Moschino or Fendi, like even the classic frames by Max Mara and Trussardi are elegant and classic. We can found something different and new in the sunglasses’ model by Mila Schön, that looks like cyclist’s glasses, and the one squared and rectangular, small and big, together with the hippie model with flowers and psychedelic lens and maxi precious applications. These are all the models seen during the first day of parades to present the new spring-summer collections of 2017. 

In this season, sunglasses for woman want to amaze with nice déco details, maxi forms and modernization of the classics sunglasses, to catch the look. So, let’s start to analyze the various and multiple forms designed:

Round

One of the tendency that is confirmed even for this new spring season is the one about the round and vintage frames. In the mini or maxi version, round sunglasses are a must and they play with clearness and colors but also with precious details with micro pearls and applications around the lens.. For a more esencial style, Ray-Ban Round in the Metal Classic and Fleck models are two timeless classics.

 

  Squared

Severely oversize, squared sunglasses come back with their charm. Gucci is one of the first that on the runway Spring-Summer included sunglasses as a specialty of the mood of the complete new collection. Frames are precious and shining of glitter. Miu Miu chose, instead, a clear frame with ample lens and glittering textile. There is who is interested in colorful frames, D&G for example, realizing a frame with a double layer with golden interior.

Cat’s eye framed

Again the charm fo the retro silhouette conquer the trend of the new beautiful Spring-Summer. The cat’s eyes frames, with tapered and charming profiles call to mind the old celebrities of years 50. Dolce & Gabbana take their inspiration from the femme fatale with a girlish attitude for they mélange blonde model with colors in the interior part that are in contrast each other, with fucsia and pick lens. Fendi‘s Orchidea sunglasses are really exotics, with squared profiles and irregular geometries. Even Fendi’s Paradeyes model with round lens and cat’s eye frame, for an effect three-dimensional.

Futuristic glam

At the end but not for less importance, the uncommon sunglasses with trompe-l’œil details that hazard with classics forms. These particular sunglasses retake the classic drop-shaped frame of aviator’s style, with golden inserts that draw an horizontal line and underline the mirrored colorful lens. There are models that create an effect of geometries 3D thanks to the metallic details on every classic frame.

Fendi Blink draws the cat’s eye with lens that keep being uncovered on the upper part, with precious details like little metallics triangles on the front and Swarovski cristal on the side. Design futurista even by Armani wit cat’s eye sunglasses with double metal bridge and rainbow frame, made putting mirrored and multicolor lens together.

Anyway, we have to say that it’s coming back again a style full of character and personality, meanly for who wears futuristic sunglasses or sunglasses with peculiar and striking colors. Remember that: even if we talk about all these different and expensive sunglasses, you can find the same models, with the same characteristic also in other shops and with a price that is more accesible for everybody.

Shoes & Seduction: spring-summer 2017 news

Seduction comes from "seducere". Seduction is something that is activated when we begin to measure the power of attraction and exercise this power on others.

Even the light pastel colors are very fashionable, such as nude or beige.

Heel 12 with fringes

The shoe with fringes is a must for this spring summer, but it went very much in vogue even in the autumn season in darker tones and forms best suited to the season. On the runway, but also in the shops, square, suede or colorful shoes are mainly with fringes. The tones chosen for this season and for the summer are always the brilliant yellow and blue, but also leather is trendy when paired with a leather bag and a denim outfits.

              Sandals Jewel

The shoes that represent elegance and seduction are those with a very special heel, shiny and flashy. Shoes with jewelry hells or crystals are a must. For the most important occasions but also for a special evening, the shoe with brilliant heel and enriched by colored stones can not miss. 

Twisted Sandal

The braided colored sandals, very particular, embrace the instep and enrich the outfit thanks to various shades of color they reflect. Here, too, the colors may vary from the simple and always elegant black to the brilliant silver or gold. The sandal enriched by the ankle strap is definitely the shoe ot this summer. It is a classic model that brands have reinterpreted in eclectic and quirky models.

Among the fashion trends the glitter is not lacking and it is really trendy for this spring summer 2017. These are declined in the form of sequins, rhinestones and glitter applied to different models. Even the nude and pale pink is making is way among the many models. Another trend that we find in the collection is the coloring metal: gold, silver and bronze tinged numerous heeled shoes.

Maxi Wedges

The wedges represent maxi comfort but at the same time even femininity. With cork heel or braided back, this kind of shoes come back in really spring-like fashion colors like gold and silver, but also in more summer tonality such as white. Definitely the variant in leather is more aggressive and strong. There is also the sandal with buckle. It is stylish and comfortable, so perfect to create your daily outfits or the one to go out in the evening.



The most fashionable model that cannot miss is the one with fringe and rhinestones. It's funny, trendy and feminine, perfectly matching with denim shorts. You can also focus on laminated version: it's a must for this summer and it can also emphasize the less restrictive outfits.

Autumn Winter 2016-2017: Shoes Man&Woman

Per questa nuova stagione invernale dobbiamo prepararci al ritorno delle dècolletè eleganti a punta con il tacco sottile e delle classiche inglesine, non più così classiche grazie ai mille modelli e mille colori alternativi. Questo inverno riabbracciamo i colori più scuri come il blu, il grigio, il verde militare ed il bordeaux che sembra essere il top tra i colori più trend del momento, ma si prospetta un inverno in cui si può anche osare con il ritorno di colori flash come oro, argento e bronzo, per borse, accessori, cappelli e soprattutto scarpe. Oggi concentriamo la nostra attenzione sulle scarpe più fashion per questo autunno-inverno 2016-2017.

Dècolletè

La classica decolletè è stata completamente reinventata e riproposta con tacco più sottile e con applicazioni luminose in colori molto più appariscenti. In golden o silver sembrano essere il top, adatte sia per una serata elegante sotto un lungo abito, sia sotto un bel jeans a tubo per occasioni più tranquille. Come must have per questa stagione invernale incontriamo soprattutto borse e scarpe in vernice ed in suede, nei colori più alla moda del momento, ossia in verde, blu, grigio e bordeaux. Non ci abbandonano i toni caldi ed intensi come il beige, il panna, il tortora ed il color mattone adatti a chi vuole spezzare con un tocco di colore e di luminosità anche in inverno ed essere sempre elegante e alla moda. Tornano anche le amatissime ballerine, questa volta più sensuali e particolari, a punta ed in colori più vistosi.

Inglesine

Mai dimenticate e sempre amate le fantastiche inglesine dal tono man-style che si accompagnano benissimo con un bel vestito corto, con un jeans per uno stile più casual, ma adattissime anche ad un completo più serio permettendo comunque di rimanere comodi e fashion. 

Per questo autumn winter 2016-2017 vediamo come le fibbie e cinture tornano di moda applicate su scarpe e borse per dare un tocco di sportività in più. Le inglesine in velluto pomellate, bicolore o monocolore, possono essere considerate il must have del momento. Le scarpe in suede, come anche borse e accessori saranno molto fashion per tutta la stagione autunno-inverno 2016-2017, tanto per la moda donna come per la moda uomo.

                                  Stivaletti&Stivali

Gli stivaletti alla caviglia da uomo sono molto simili a quelli da donna, anche per questa stagione, ma li incontriamo in toni più maschili come il verde militare, molto di moda anche per questo autunno inverno 2016-2017, in marrone ed in blu. L'applicazione di fibbie rende più sportivo e casual lo stivale, in modo da poterlo  indossare tranquillamente tutti i giorni. 

Aggiungiamo inoltre tutte le particolarità che queste splendide scarpe possono avere. Dal derby plateau al tacco comodo, dalle fibbie alle borchie, dalla pomellatura alle applicazioni come punti luce o petches. Per non parlare dei mille tipi di materiali, pelle, camoscio, vernice, velluto, fino ad arrivare alla scarpa ricoperta di pelliccia per i più audaci.

Anche le catene sono molto in voga come accessori per questo autunno inverno, soprattutto relativamente a stivaletti, per ambo i sessi. La pelle si sposa benissimo con la cromatura delle catene e con la para alta o il tacco largo, per quanto riguarda la moda donna. Lo stivaletto basso torna a ricordarci il classico stivale da cavaliere in pelle, resistente all’acqua e al freddo, anche questo nei toni del marrone, beidge, nero, bordeaux e verde militare, come anche nei colori più accesi ed appariscenti.

Per quanto riguarda gli stivali alti, la Dea moda per questo autunno inverno ci propone in svariati colori e materiali, come velluto, pelle e camoscio, stivali alti fino sopra il ginocchio, o meglio gli stivali cuissardes, molto eleganti e raffinati. Un altro tipo di stivale prediletto dalla Dea moda per questa stagione invernale è lo stivale alto, stile amazzone, con lacci che salgono per tutta la lunghezza, per dare un tocco sportivo e particolare.  Il classico stivaletto basso invece torna di moda comodo e caldo per tutti i giorni con pomellatura, para, tacco basso, frange e pelliccia per i più stilosi. 

Sneakers

Non possiamo non parlare delle amatissime sneakers che dominano e domineranno la scena per tutta la stagione invernale 2016-2017. Come must have per questo periodo più freddo, le skeakers, per quanto riguarda la moda uomo come per la moda donna, non smettono di stupirci. Tantissimi i colori e le forme di queste scarpe comode per tutti i giorni ma sempre fashion. Notiamo come i colori accesi e laminati come golden e silver tornano ad essere protagonosti anche per le skeankers da uomo e da donna, come anche il verde militare ed il nero in tutte le sue sfumature. 

Polacchini

I polacchini per questo autumn winter 2016-2017 si alzano con un tacco importante ma comodo nella sua larghezza. In velluto, in suede o in pelle mantengono la loro eleganza nei tanti svariati colori e modelli: in bordeaux, in velluto blu, con le frange, con tacco bicolore o con para beige.

Scarpe in velluto

Le scarpe in velluto dominano la scena e diventano il mast have per questa stagione invernale. Sono un'esplosione di colore perchè il velluto permette alla scarpa di avere un colore più intenso. I colori più trend del momento sono viola, rosso rubino, blu zaffiro ed il bellissimo verde bottiglia.
