Bras & Bridesmaids Packing List - Part 1
This Friday, I am heading to South Beach to celebrate a dual bachelorette party with my closest friends!
There is just one problem here: I refuse to check in a bag. It's against the only New Year's Resolution I have managed to keep (travel light)! So, in my tiny carry-on, my options are just going to have to get a little smaller. Lucky for me, we are going to South Beach! I will fit right in.
Starting with beachwear and nightwear... here is my packing list:
1. A bathing suit to lounge around:
2. A bathing suit to play around:
3. At some point, we may need to cover up:
4. And when the sun goes down (thank you, In Residence!)...

Please Touch our Clube Bossa!
If you read the Wall Street Journal last weekend (actually, the Off Duty Section - yes, it counts), you may have seen a preview of our newest collection - the Clube Bossa Resort 2012.
There is no doubt that when it comes to swimwear, Brazilian designers are a few steps ahead. And when it comes to using luxurious fabrics, Clube Bossa is, well... high up there.
I know this. It is a fact. So how is it that I am still astonished each time I try on a piece?!? It just feels perfect and with the soft fabrics and the drapes and the cuts and the colors... it takes a girl so much closer to perfection! At the beach!

We are so proud that three of our brands are represented in the latest Gilt Groupe Event, which donates 100% of its sales to the Nature Conservancy.
More details from the website:
More details from the website:
"Every year Sports Illustrated Swimsuit always gets us super-excited to plan our beach wardrobes — there’s no better place to find out which swimwear trends will be all over the beaches once summer arrives. So we’re thrilled to be teaming up with Sports Illustrated this year for a summer-fun blowout: We’ve got an amazing array of chic swimsuits like the styles in this year’s issue (out today!), as well as limited-edition surfboards and exhibition-quality prints from Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2012. What’s more, 100 percent of the purchase price will benefit the Nature Conservancy’s beaches and oceans conservation work — and that’s something we can all feel good about."
To be clear, you will not be getting a discount on this event because it is a charity event, not their usual "sale".
Click Here to join. Hurry up! Some items have already sold out & the event lasts 3 days... if you do miss out on any of this, just visit our boutique in West Hollywood!
