    Here’s What You Missed: Miami Swim Week Edition

    Miami Swim Week is a week for all of those who ate a little too many hot dogs during the 4th of July to reevaluate their life choices. All jokes aside, Swim Week has become a major platform for the hottest swimwear designers to showcase their best work. What better place to do this than in Miami Beach, home of some of the hottest beach bods around. Bloggers, models, editors, and enthusiast travel from everywhere to witness this celebration. This year’s Swim Week took place July 14-18th. Here’s a recap of some of the hottest trends of the week and how you can sport it this summer!


    Nudes

     

    Nudes have been taking the fashion world by storm. We see this trend everywhere! If nudes are a little boring for you and you are all about color in the summer, try this trend with something smaller like a bag or a pair of cute sandals to not overpower your outfit.

    Cutouts

    Cut out swimsuits are quite the sight, but they aren’t the most flattering. Don’t let that discourage you. In the words of Queen Bee: If you got it flaunt it!

    Boho

    Boho is another trend that has been spotted everywhere in recent years. I love the laid back vibe it brings to swimwear. You don’t have to go all the way out of your way to purchase a boho looking swimwear, you can accessorize it to fit the theme. Suggestions below!

    Some of these pieces won’t be out until Summer 2017, but there is no reason why you can’t start sporting these looks now. Check out these few pieces to add to any swimwear to create a trendy look! Talk about luxury: those marble flip flops are a must! I am obsessed with gold costume jewelry with swimwear and who isn’t wearing a choker these days? Check out #MiamiSwimWeek for more recaps and cool pictures for this past weeks affairs.

    Forevermark Celebrates ‘A Diamond is Forever’

    Allison Williams, Lo Bosworth, Lindsay Ellingson, and Danielle Bernstein and more join the Forevermark Celebration of ‘A Diamond is Forever’.

    Forevermark Diamonds debuted its new advertising campaign ‘It’s A Long Journey to Become the One’ with a private screening in NYC on October 28, 2015. Additional celebrities including Nadine Leopold, Rebecca Dayan, Nikki James, Alyssa Umphress, Lola Langusta, Rosalind Lipstt, Phillip Bloch, Samantha Black, Angela Lindvall, and industry influencers caught a sneak peek of the film, which also celebrates the relaunch of the iconic slogan ‘A Diamond Is Forever.’

    Girls’ Star Allison Williams arrived looking stunning in a white Monse Maison dress, Louis Vuitton heels, and donned Forevermark Cluster Earrings, Forevermark by Jade Trau Signet Ring, Forevermark by Natalie K Center of My Universe Ring and stated, “I love that Forevermark pays so much attention to detail. They know a thing or two about finding ‘The One’!”

    Lo Bosworth was also in attendance to support the new campaign, and loved how Forevermark’s Diamonds are full of “tender, love, and care” similar to her friendships, especially her friendship with Lauren Conrad. “There is a group of four of us that have been best friends since we were young. We’re kind of bound for life. Lauren and I support each other in our relationships and our careers and that is so important to me.”

    Forevermark Celebration of ‘A Diamond is Forever'

    Charles Stanley, President of Forevermark US mirrored those sentiments saying, “When developing a concept for the new campaign, we wanted it to match the epic nature of ‘A Diamond Is Forever,’” said Charles Stanley, President of Forevermark US. “‘The One’ is a metaphor for both the journey of a Forevermark diamond and mankind’s quest for true love, as told through a man’s journey to find his loved one. Less than 1% of the world’s diamonds are worthy of the Forevermark inscription; this film is the human representation of Forevermark’s rigorous selection process and our passionate pursuit of the world’s most beautiful and rare diamonds.”

    Directed by Rob Chiu, the commercial was filmed on location in Gran Canaria and Barcelona, Spain. The campaign will launch nationally on November 2nd with :60 and :30 second TV spots on broadcast networks. As part of ‘The One’ print and digital campaign, Forevermark will include the recently announced ‘Ever Us’ two stone ring featuring Forevermark diamonds as part of its partnership with Signet. The ‘Ever Us’ design features two diamonds of the same size touching each other and represents the bond of friendship and love in a relationship. The campaign aims to create a new product category that will create an emotional connection and drive diamond demand.

    Forevermark Celebration of ‘A Diamond is Forever'

    Rounding out Forevermark’s three-tiered holiday advertising campaign is ‘Seize the Day,’ a high-impact call-to-action campaign announced by Forevermark and The De Beers Group of Companies last month. The ‘Seize the Day’ campaign will be similar to De Beers’ past campaign of the same name, which shared the same objective to increase consumer diamond demand. The 2015 ads will be targeted towards men and will feature bold, catchy statements in black font on a white background and classic diamond jewelry piece types.

    The ‘Seize the Day’ campaign will also include the ‘A Diamond Is Forever’ slogan and a ‘Happy Holidays from Forevermark’ sign off.

    Dove Advanced Hair Series: Oxygen Moisture Collection

    This past week I was lucky enough to attend Dove’s Hair Series event for their Oxygen Moisture Collection. As a person with flat, fine hair, this product was absolutely everything I needed. I always have a really hard time adding volume to my hair and giving my hair that “natural and relaxed” look some women are just born with.

    Dove Oxygen Moisture, part of the Dove Advanced Hair Series, is made for women with fine hair to deliver moisture and volume in one.

After just one wash my hair smelled amazing and had the ideal balance of moisture and volume. End result? Fuller-looking hair, tangle free, and easy to manage!
