Summer's winding down and sadly my Sicilian vacation seems like it was ages ago. Since there isn't a beach hopping excursion in my near future I will have to live vicariously through our stylish eyes on the streets of St. Tropez.

I've spent the afternoon combing through thousands of shots to bring you the city's best. Curious? Check out our Flickr album here.

On a side note, there was more than a few style "don'ts," I'll bring you those once my brain stops hurting.

Enjoy!

Bohemian Rhapsody

I picked up the July issue of British Glamour while I was abroad and had to share this gorgeous spread with you. I know the boho look has been around for a while and some may say it's 15 minutes are up but I have to disagree. Who wouldn't want to look like:

My personal fave is the Isabel Marant dress (6th one down), which is yours?

Trends Report: Bathing Beauties

It used to be an itsy bitsy, teeny weeny, little polka dot bikini was all you needed to make waves by the seashore. If you planned on actually swimming in your swimsuit then a sensible racer back Speedo was the way to go – but gone are the days of the shapeless one piece – the latest swimsuits play up your best attributes while elevating the humble beach uniform to runway worthy proportions. To learn more about the colors and bodyline silhouettes that work best for you, be sure to log in to Always In Style and complete your Personal Profiles.

There is something quite ladylike and glam about the one piece – it’s retro in the best sense of the word. And they’re not just for the shy any longer – isn’t it always far sexier to leave more to the imagination? We think so. Look for big trends like toga style one shoulder pieces, asymmetric cutouts, embellishments like beads or buttons, and figure enhancing fabrics that shape or create curves where necessary.
