The day is upon us to hit the sandy shores of the beaches around us (or a flight away). Actually, if you're more of a 'glass half empty' person, the days are dwindling, and we are wasting time at our computers (unless you're the smarty pants reading on a gadget while sprawled out on a beach chair).

Various publications are clamoring for us to learn about which bathing suits are new and fresh, and which patterns are the hottest. The best part to it all is the advent of mixing and matching bathing suits. Originally, the concept was set forth to accommodate the different shapes of consumers (I mean really - who has a perfect combination of identical sized tops and bottoms?!), now it is perfect for renewing your swimwear the same way you would your closet (as is recommended for thrifty guys and gals).

I've seen people sport a solid complimentary top to their print bottom (or vice versa), and even less often have I seen two similarly colored patterned pieces together. At the end of the day, though I'm all for it, I can't seem to muster up the guts to mix up my swimsuit. Celebs Audrina Patridge and Megan Fox have no fear when it comes to their suits. It just feels like I have on two different patterned socks in kindergarten and someone is laughing at me. Just me?

Do you mix and match?

Beach Bunny Swimwear have taken over the aquatic market. Okay, they may not be a huge empire or a household name, but they got all the Kardashian sisters creating collections (check out Kim's, and Kourtney's) as well as Sports Illustrated model Irina Shayk. Kim recently did a Barbarella inspired shoot (also the inspiration for her capsule line) to promote her line and no word on whether Kourtney will do one based on her Bridgette Bardot inspiration (or if Khloe will get her own line!), but I'm more into Irina's shoot.

Fashion shows are known for bringing some creativity from designers to runways to realways. Some concoctions are unrealistic and feed more into the aesthetic creation and mood of the show. This swimwear line sported some serious fembot/fashionable Star Trek dos. The style elicited a serious whoah! from me. It's interesting, and reminds me of something my mirror shows me some mornings. With less neatness.

Alessandra's abs are tres magnifique on the other hand...

What do you think?
