SwimSuits

Monday, October 24, 2011
Swimming costume or bikini is used widely in every part of the world. The first widely used swimming costume was the wool jersey tank suit of the 1920s. By the 1940s these had given way to a corset style costume often with the rigid bra cups and paneling of traditional corsetry. 
In 1946 Frenchman Louis Reard patented the bikini and put it on show on the fashion runways of Paris. In the 1980s the Brazilian thong or tanga was incorporated into Western swimwear styles.


Most swimwear is made from a mix of nylon and Lycra creating flexible smooth fitting costumes which absorb little moisture. Cool costume for professionals. Meanwhile companies such as Speedo have developed their own proprietary performance enhancing fabrics for sports swim wear. 



















One piece costumes and the two piece bikini are the two predominant forms of women s swimwear. Both can be styled with a wide variety of brightly colored fabrics. One piece costumes range from the traditional corset style to more daring examples with a high leg cut and open sides and back. 

Rigidly paneled at first over time the bikini has come to resemble Reard s original daring design while variations such as the string bikini and micro bikini remain ever popular. 

Men s swimwear ranges from the traditional tight fitting trunks and mid thigh length examples favored by professional swimmers to loose fitting cotton shorts inspired by surfers. How they wear the costumes that is what depends.

Nail Art


Nail art is not old to us. Natural nails are made up of protein keratin. The nail plate requires a certain amount of flexibility and moisture to encourage healthy growth. Using hardening treatments and harsh chemicals on natural nails will make the nail plate brittle and more prone to breakages. 

Women love to have beautiful finger nails and men love to see women with well manicured hands. However there are certain brands of nail polish and nail products that are more beautiful and long lasting than other products. Some of us can say it is costing. 

Of course they cost a little bit more but the effects are certainly worth it not to mention much longer lasting. Some of the most popular nail designs are French manicure hearts flowers and multicolor nails. But today women are becoming even more demanding and want lots of different nail designs that are original. For example at Christmastime some women get blue painted nails with a moon star and Christmas tree hand painted on. Some women make popular designs. Lets see some of the designs.








Other women get a French manicure for their wedding with small pearls glued to the nail. Then there are other women who enjoy nails painted with creative designs for March Madness and their favorite basketball team. It seems outrageous but creative nail designs are a wonderful way for women to show their originality and style. Manicures generally include shaping the nails cuticle care hand massage and polishing and giving a glossy finish to the nails. Professionally manicured nails look neat and very attractive. 

























Nail art is an artistic process which involves special care of the nails. The nails can later be decorated with designs and colors that can range from plain prints and glitter to crystal and abstracts. The nail is the canvas on which people can also use fragile dried flowers or even smiley stickers or diamantes. Which is the way to attract more and more.

Lace

Laces are of many types and characteristics. But it matters, how you use it. A lace curtain is a knitted semi transparent fabric usually made from polyester. Lace curtain fabric can come in various weights fine to heavy. The best is always the Jacquard lace.

Lace designs vary but generally are floral patterned. Lace comes in colors White Ivory Cream and Ecru being a rich cream. When I was a child I thought lace was beautiful. When I became a teenager I believed lace was flirty. Now being an adult I think it is both beautiful and flirty but it is also romantic feminine and totally chic.

Nothing special in using that. All depends on how you wear it. And I feel very happy that lace is a hot fashion trend for Spring Summer 2011 season because I want to wear it and be the most attractive girl on this planet. Lace is gorgeous. 








It looks exceptionally good combined with other fabrics or just on its own. But beware of too much of it because it will look unflattering. Choose just one item in lace to look great. More than one will turn you into a Barbie girl the effect you hardly wish to get. Try various types of lace to find the one that is best for you. You can go for vintage lace with large prints and look classy or opt for tiny patterns for a more sensual look.
Sheer looks fantastic too and it is also one of the hottest fashion trends for Spring Summer 2011.

 It is up to you what to pair it with. You can be bold enough to wear sexy lingerie underneath your sheer dress or don something more demure to keep your modesty. Besides you can choose to sport clothing with sheer insets that will reveal some flesh but not show too much. Try on sheer garments of different colors to find the most perfect one that suits you. Both of these Spring Summer 2011 fashion trends are interesting to experiment with. Using sheer and lace increases the attraction to the others.
