DOLCE FASHIONISTA

PUERTO RICAN FASHION
There are fashion statements made all around the world and well since we've been to Puerto Rico why not show you the trendy colors and perfect fits that Puerto Ricans are wearing today.

One thing is for sure, Puerto Ricans sure do express a lot of their fashion in vibrant colors.  Being an island and living in such a beautiful scenery why not express what you feel?  A lot of fashion statements come out of people's emotions.  Beautiful colors in a beautiful place.
Puerto Ricans are not the only ones known for having curves.  A lot of Latin American women do.  How do you say, that "coke bottle" figure.  Coming from a place where having curves is a natural and beautiful thing, these women are so comfortable with expressing that and showing that with certain fitted pieces of clothes such as hip-hugging shorts and curve fitting tanks.
In addition, a lot of Puerto Ricans are full figured but still have those amazing curves.  They accentuate their gift with high waisted flared bottoms and a yet again, a curve hugging tops to show off their voluptuousness.
And finally, a day at the beach.  Ahhh...pure bliss!  Get into a sexy swimsuit, protect you hair with a hat, protect your site of the world, and protect with your body.  That is one thing about being on beach with so many people.  You can wear what you want without being so self-concious.  So go on out and get into that sexy swimsuit and get wet! Oh and don't forget to get into a sexy sarong to explore the rest Puerto Rico.  Adios!



SUMMER TRENDS
this summer's clothing and accessories suggested by Cami De Xclusive
  
THE ROMPER
The romper is what I like to call the “modern day overall” it is a comfortable one piece garment that allows style and comfort. The variations in necklines, pant lengths, and prints allows for every woman to enjoy this garment within their own personal style preferences.









BOLD PRINTS
Don’t be afraid this season to go all out and let your colors and prints show! Bold prints with inspirations from the 60’s and 70’s are so in this summer! If your not as up to a bold print try a soft floral print that will still keep you in tune with the trend but give you a more subtle statement.




Maxi dresses/skirts have to be this seasons hottest trend right now! These dresses flatter every woman’s body shape and depending on the style/design they can be worn from day to night.

 





  


BANDEAU EVERYTHING
For the ladies who have “it” and like to flaunt “it”. Bandeau bras and skirts are a must in your wardrobe. Wear them together with a stylish blazer or lightweight cardigan or separately with your favorite garments.


LONG SHOULDER BAGS
Can you say a must have! For the ladies who love a great handbag, but don’t want to think about holding it on your shoulder or in your hands a long shoulder bag is a must! Still stylish and chic as your favorite hobo, but comfortable and convenient.

 
SKIN IS IN!
In this hot summer heat a little skin is necessary, but remember to keep it classy and chic! From off the shoulder tops to midriff bearing blouses women showing off their best assets is the trend this season. However, remember less is more! So if your showing your tummy keep the legs 50% covered and vice versa. This trend is meant to only tease , not to give away all the secrets. ;)





 
STATEMENT JEWELRY
Make a statement this season by wearing a bold necklace, earrings, ring or bracelet. Statement jewelry is always a great conversation starter and outfit maker! So stack up on your accessories and remember the golden rule “less is more” so don’t wear all of your statement pieces together, you may end up making too much of a statement.







  
HAUTE SUMMER 2011
What are you wearing this summer?  Of course the usuals like swim wear and hats but what else?  Look for tunics at stores near you!  They have them in long and short styles and with all sorts of designs and details.  And yes men, we've got swim wear for you too.  This year's hottest styles are printed trunks.  Solid color trunks are out and printed trunks are IN!
What about the colors you ask?  Well while spring was all about pastels this summer its about the neutral tones and bright basic colors of the rainbow.  So check out a clothing store near you and look for these HAUTE items.  And while you are out there looking all SEXY and FAB don't forget that sunscreen!


2011 SPRING COLORS


MAXI! MAXI!

Pastels are making a comeback this year and with Punxsutawney Phil making his early spring prediction, the shopping must begin!  Pastel colors range from pink, lavender, baby blue, and soft yellow and green.


Be sure not to miss FAB spring colors.  You will have people saying how "SWEET" those colors are.  Wearing colorful pieces brings out a natural happiness in some.  Ever feel dull when it is dark outside?  Well of course!  Why wear black when it is dark outside?  Brighten up your atmosphere and take out the color!  Bright colors do happen to make people smile and feel better about themselves.  Look at the names of our Island Sugar Collection...Island Sunset, Lime In D'Coconut...all with bright fruits!
Wear the colors to be apart of this year's spring trend; wear them to feel happy and to have a blissful day; and wear the Island Sugar Collection to smell refreshingly sweet, exotic, and captivating.  Perfect pairings to have a Bella Dolce Day.
