Dazzle Me with Color

Not sure how many of you feel about VIX swimwear but I think its pretty shibby. Doesn't mean I can afford the full-price stuff, but I normally get mine on sale.

Speaking of sales, I have a 25% off coupon good for life. Enter it into their website and get 25% off their full-price merchandise, whenever you want, however many times you want, this coupon does not expire.

My faves from their 2009 collection:



PARIS BLACK RAYON ELIE CAFTAN
Multi-colored geometric print with black enameled 23k gold plated accessories.

A simple green bikini, reminding us all of lush tropical paradises...

PARADISE GREEN
Green palm print with white enameled 23k gold ring accessories.

An elegant coverup, with just enough white to look demure and just enough pink to make it look sassy.

SOLID FULL LENGTH DRESS

This just grabbed me when I first saw it. Maybe its the ruffle? Maybe its all the fun colors put together?

SOLID TEXTURED DRESS

From their sale stuff:

Pretty colors, all in a stripe!

CASSIA
Stripe pink and white with gold detail.

The cutest tote ever!

PALMILLA KAKUI TOE
Bohemian chic canvas tote with green tropical print and woven beaded handles. Interior features zipper pocket. 19x6x14

I love this one. Not only is it a dark dark purple but its got a bit of shimmer to the suit. I think its daring and makes the wearer look like a woman in charge!

FAITH
Solid magenta suit with gold detail.


So go enjoy the suits, find something you like, and maybe the swimsuit fairy will be extra kind to you this summer!

I have a soft spot in my heart for soft blankets and throws. Who wouldn't love those on a ski vacation? Snuggling up in front of the fire, with a a lovely laptop on my lap and my best blanket by my side... I'd sing, sing, sing "I'm a ShiShu fan and I'm ok, I love natural things and bamboo throws!"

Visit A Latte in the Morning, because they have an excellent giveaway going in coordination with ShiShu Style . Get a chance to win a beautiful ShiShu baby blanket (or mini-throw as I call it, lol!) ENTER HERE

I'm a personal fan of anything natural (I HATE poly stuff) and I love the idea of super soft blankets made from something so ultra easy to grow. Talk about renewable products that give and give and give! And in lovely colors that are easy on the eyes but that add pizzazz to any room!

The company has beautiful baby blankets and adult-sized throws too!
