The Bikini that Defies Gravity

After just bringing out her fake tan range ‘JWOWW Sunless Spray’, Jersey Shore’s Jenni Farley (aka JWOWW) is now set to bring out a bikini line which will be available for purchase in the beginning of February 2012. Only in America would someone bring out a bikini line during winter.


JWOWW is known from the reality TV show ‘Jersey Shore’ and for those who have heard about it or watched it, would know this is a good move for her. The whole cast has a well-known daily routine named ‘GTL’ (gym, tan, laundry), where Jenni is seen focusing on the tanning part in order to get the perfect tan and fit in at the Jersey Shore.


The gravity defying bikini line is made out of a special fabric and silicone so you can remove the straps for a perfect no strap marks tan.

If you want to take a dip in the Jersey Shore sea you’ll have to put the straps back on, as the silicone adhesive works better in the heat so if you get it wet without the straps, don’t, or else you could see it floating away.

However, the bikini can only be washed up to 20 times until the silicone adhesive starts to weaken.


The images of the line so far show some of the different bikinis that are going to be available; there is a block bright red swimsuit as well as a bright blue bikini. There’s also animal print if you’re feeling wild or a cute and an innocent one with hearts and lace.

“I wanted my line to be stylish and functional, so getting the perfect tan could be hassle free. Now you can be sexy and tan-line free at the same time” – Jenni Farley.

Spring Summer 2012

When it comes to summer, the same thoughts come into all us girls heads, out with the jumpers and jeans and in with the t-shirts and shorts. We put away our thermals and get out our bikinis, and quite frankly I cannot wait to be lying on the beach getting a tan in a bikini.


But it’s not all about the sun, beach and tans or the short shorts.
Summer is also a time where fashion can be bright and daring, where it’s acceptable to wear a floral jumpsuit and a big hat.


Fashion weeks have been and gone, and they were fabulous from designers like Gucci and Marchea to high street fashion brand Topshop, we have now all got an idea on what the hot trends for Spring Summer 2012 are going to be.

It’s all about the bright colours, the reds, the yellows and the neon’s, with a bright lipstick to add to the outfit. But if you think you’re a bit reserved for the bright colours, pastels are going to be in as well as shown in the Louis Vuitton fashion show.

Ankle socks, they sort of made an appearance last summer, but they’ll be around in force this summer, a cute ankle sock with a midi or mini dress and a cute tan wedge or block heel is the perfect day to night outfit for summer, whether you’re going shopping or sitting in a pub garden you’ll be doing so dressed in style for the summer.

Now where would we be without our accessories. Feathers will be a big hit this summer whether it’s just a cute pair of feather earrings or a feather head piece or maybe even a feather skirt, they’ll be making an appearance and will give you a more casual look. But if you’re not ready for a featherhead piece and will be out in the sun, grab an over sized hat like seen on Sarah Jessica Parker, Lindsay Lohan and Kate Moss.


2012 Golden Globes

On January 12th the award season began, starting with the Golden Globes. As always celebs were out in force to impress and shock with their beautiful or outrageous choices.
You had designers from Dior, Prada and Gucci to Jenny Packham and Zac Posen even dresses being chosen by children.

Best dressed of the night either goes to Charlize Theron who stunned in a baby pink Dior couture dress. The way she wore her hair to the side with a glitzy hair band worked perfectly and made the whole outfit even more elegant. Or Emma Stone who looked beautiful in Lanvin the deep purple and pink work beautifully together and the eagle belt is placed at the perfect part of her body, again like Charlize Theron she has her hair in a bun which leaves you to admire the dress.




Dress colours went from pinks to purples to blues to greens, but there were a few that stood out from those and they were the silver metallic’s, and two people rocked this look Nicole Richie in Julian Macdonald and Glee’s Lea Michelle in Marchea.
It was a shock seeing Lea Michelle in such a revealing ‘grown up’ dress when we are use to seeing her in cuter ones like the pink Oscar de la Renta dress she wore to last years Golden Globes, some didn’t like it, but you cant deny that the dress itself is a work of art.



It was a surprise to see Nicole Richie in such an amazing dress as we’re used to seeing her in a more boho fashion style, she loves her Aztec prints and her creams so it was a pleasant surprise when she turned up wearing this stunning Julian Macdonald dress.



Like most award shows you have the best dressed, the nice surprises and the worst dressed, and the winner of the Golden Globes worst dressed is Sarah Michelle Gellar in a blue and white tie-dyed dress by Monique Lhuillier. You let her off a little bit when she told E! News that she let her daughter pick it out for her, but there comes a time in your child’s life when you need to say ‘no’ and that was the time.



Award season brings out the best looking men in Hollywood. George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Michael Fassbender, Ryan Kwanten and Bradley Cooper. Just to name and few, and they never fail to impress. Ryan Kwanted wore a velvet dinner jacket with a shawl collar which was perfection. George Clooney has been quoted saying he only owns one tuxedo and just changes the shirt each time he wears it and because it’s him, that’s fine, he may be 50 but he is the ultimate silver fox of Hollywood. Now Brad Pitt may be walking with a cane which gives him some swag and takes away from the fact he has grown his hair long again which isn’t his best look, but its Brad Pitt so no matter what his hairs like he’ll always be one of the best looking men in Hollywood.
