Guess the Postpartum Mama or Her Waterbaby

LilSugar — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 06:00:32 -0700

Celebs and their kiddos cool off just like the rest of us. They hit the beach or soak in the pool to offset the Summer sun. Some brave mothers even show off their postpartum bods in bikinis. See if you can guess which tots have already begun honing their beach bum skills.

Question 1 of 10

Which beach babe enjoyed a little fun in the Mediterranean while vacationing with her jet setting parents last year?

How Do You Cover Up Your Beach-Bound Baby Bump?

LilSugar — Sun, 19 Jul 2009 06:00:05 -0700

Expectant mamas don't let a little thing like a baby bump keep them from playing some beach blanket bingo. Celeb mamas may not stress as much as the rest of us over their typical waterside fashion, but their selections are all over the map when they are pregnant. While Britney Spears and Nicole Richie opted for the bikini, letting their bellies steal the show, Gwen Stefani kept hers under wraps while accompanying her boys down to the water. Tell us, what type of maternity swimsuit do you choose on a perfect beach day?

Jessica Simpson Makes a (Bigger) Splash

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 03:00:22 -0700

Jessica Simpson has just signed a deal promising a bigger and better swimwear collection. With the help of bathing suit guru, Red Carter, the duo plan to unveil a zesty line of bikinis and cover-ups ranging from $35 to $120. Not bad. There's something for everyone with styles ranging from sexy animal prints to cute gingham patterns. Her last collection was a bit too all-American for my taste but this one looks more promising boasting modern cuts and designs. Jessica's new and improved collection will launch in December in major department and specialty stores. Are you interested?

J.Crew's swimwear collection is one of the best. Every season, they come out with cuter styles than the previous year. I own three bikinis and they've managed to withstand the test of time.

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 14:05:08 -0700

The Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue models know - having too many swimsuits is never a bad thing. I'll add to that, especially if you live in the water during summertime like I do. Personally, I tend to veer toward bandeau-style bikinis because they're sporty chic, comfortable, and don't cause tan lines. What's your swimsuit style - string, monokini, cutout, asymmetrical, halter? No prob, I've got you covered. Newlyweds in the house, this is your chance to nab a sexy suit for your steamy honeymoon!

Guess the Scintillating Swimsuit Style!

FabSugar — Thu, 21 May 2009 07:50:22 -0700

Swimsuit season is upon us. Are you ready? I am. My fun hardcore workouts have paid off, and now is the perfect time to show it off. Swimsuits come in a wide range of cuts and styles, but my favorite is the bikini. I own a different one for each activity: a sturdy one for surfing, a skimpy number for lounging in the sand, and a basic one for doing laps in the pool. Fun fact: The bikini, invented by Louis Réard, was named after the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific, the site of the Operation Crossroads nuclear weapon test on July 1, 1946. The reasoning? Because, like a nuclear device, it would cause a burst of excitement! Are you ready for the swimwear challenge?

Question 1 of 6

Can you name this bikini cut?
