Guria Beachwear’s 3 looks in 1 swimwear

TRIANGLES, HALTERS, BANDEAUS OH MY

Guria Beachwear's 3-in-1 Chic Top



We've all heard of two-in-one deals, but it's a rarity to find three-in-one steals. With Guria Beachwear's 3-in-1 Chic Top, you get triple the choices without sacrificing quality or sex appeal.


No longer make the choice between triangle, halter or bandeau, with the 3-in-1 Chic Top all three come standard. Presented in every color and print in the collection, Guria has all your options covered. The top's hardware allows you to adjust to a fit that makes you comfortable – offering as little or as complete coverage as desired.


The triple idea was born in 2008, when the economy started its downhill slide and wallets began tightening up. Designer Camila Ckless wanted to present a versatile suit that gives customers the biggest bang for their buck, a feat it truly accomplishes.


The 3-in-1 Chic Top retails from $70 to $78.75 and is available in sizes XS – XL, fitting up to E and F cup sizes.

Embracing every figure, Guria offers sizes from x-small to x-large with cup sizes accomodating up to F. Using only the highest quality materials from Brazil, you'll see opulent details, distinctive embellishments, texture, marine-inspired prints and the award-winning 3-in-1 top that easily converts from triangle to halter to bandeau.

Miami Makes GQ's top 40 worst dressed list

This is an article in GQ regarding the 40 worst dressed cities in the country. They put Miami as #9 on this list. Whoever wrote this has never been to Miami I can tell you this with 100% certainty.

"
... A bachelorette party Mecca, Miami hosts a perennial "fleet week" of wasted, self-hating bridesmaids who grope blindly for washboard abs. No wonder so many South Beach dudes look like they're between shifts at Night Train. Third buttons hold on for dear life. Acid-washed jeans constellate under the black lights in the club. And those pointed-toe loafers...faux-alligator? The world's your music video, bro.—Robert Fischer "

WUT? And they show a picture of three women who do not by any stretch of the imagination represent the way women really dress in the Magic City.

Last Minute Mother's Day gift ideas

Mothers Day is quickly approaching, so what’s topping wish lists this year? Style expert, Jeannine Morris gave us the scoop.

Something hot this year that Mom’s will love are these cool watches from Timex…their Modern Originals Easy Reader. The monochromatic, darker hues are great for a night out, while the white with rainbow numerals add a fun pop of color. At Nordstroms for $65. They also have a weekender collection with really fun colors…for a more casual look. These have interchangeable nylon slip-thru straps that are so cool…$34.99 dollars at Target.

For a little pampering pick up the L’Occitane Delightful Hands collection gift set. A trio of hydrating and nourishing hand creams with delicate peony scent, smoothing almond and shea butter. It smooths and protects your hands. Best part, the set comes beautifully wrapped…a perfect gift for $28. They also have a Pivoine Delicate collection with eau de toilette and shimmering powder that leaves behind a delicate floral scent…so pretty starting at $12. L’Occitane products are available at usa.loccitane.com and in 160 L’Occitane boutiques throughout the U.S.

Makeup is always fun for mom and Ulta ( I LOVE Ulta!) has some awesome things with really great values, like their 5-in-1 color collection. It’s a 61 piece collection with 5 different palettes to create custom looks. 10 eye shadows, with coordinating cheek shades, 2 mini lip glosses and 3 dual ended eyeliners for $24.99. I recently bought a make up kit in a three tier faux alligator case for 20 bucks.

They also have exclusive Smashbox Shades Of Fame Reflection Lip Gloss Kits, $29
---5 ultra-shiny travel size lip glosses, so cute. And if your mom likes to do her nails, try Ulta’s 5-piece Nail Lacquer Collection, $9.95. It’s a professional 5 piece mini pack in really fun summer shades.
