Suit Up!

[Picture via Blue & Cream] Sweatsuit, that is. Because it was jacket weather this morning, not only out here, but in Manhattan as well, so we hear. Where has our precious summer gone?! Well, we refuse to reform just yet. And while we are about to make our way back to the concrete jungle of NYC in just a few hours and immerse ourselves in the chaos that is Fashion Week madness, we still refuse to give up on our summer memories. So go on and throw on this head-to-toe Lamptons sweatsuit from Blue & Cream. Yes, the sweatpants and the hoodie. Because this suit will serve as a great reminder all winter long of all those other days this summer you played around in a different type of suit - the type you can swim in. And all we gotta say is - at least it’s not a business suit.

We’re glad we’re not the only ones refusing to give up on summer. J.Crew may be putting practically everything that has to do with summer on sale, but they’re refusing to do the same with their swim-wear. In fact, they’re even breaking out some new suits just in time for Labor Day, like this Terra Paisley print J.Crew/Catalog exclusive. As soon as we saw the big pic of the itsy bitsy bikini at the top of the screen, we just knew we had to get our hands on the suit. More »

The weather’s been a little chilly here the past few days, and while the beaches are still full of people packing in the last week of summer, the nights have been better suited for a sweater than a swim. But we found the perfect solution if you’re looking for a swimsuit for those chillier days and transitional weeks from summer to fall: This “sexy fake fur bikini, worn here by Laetitia Casta, will keep you warm in all those important places while frolicking… well, wherever you deem it necessary to frolick in a fake fur bikini. JRL’s bedroom perhaps?…

Before you think I’ve totally lost it, and GofG should probably pluck me from all Fashion Week activities all together, let me explain. I’ve been craving an 80s/early 90s inspired suit like this for quite some time (especially one affordable in price at $39.99 like this Hot Tuna Pop Art One Piece). It’s totally the perfect thing for all theme parties, or even Halloween! Just pair it with some roller-skates, knee socks, and you have yourself the ideal Roller-girl outfit. And if Labor Day weekend at Day & Night is anything like the Fourth of July, we’re sure you could even pull this off there… More »

What better to make yourself look like you walked straight out of a Slim Aarons coffee table book than with this Emilio Pucci Torre one piece. With it’s under-wire design for an automatic boost, sexy cut-out, and cute little bow, it’s got the understated sexy appeal that was all the rage in the 60s and 70s and that made poolside glamour so popular back then. Just add some big hair, bigger sunglasses, a cocktail and a cigarette holder and you are set. As an added bonus, the lemon and white will bring out that tan of yours you’ve spent all summer cultivating. [Suit Up!]

Apparently, TopShop is taking our Endless Summer motto very literally, because while some of their clothing store counterparts just keep slashing prices to get rid of their swimsuit inventory, the British shop actually seems to be getting a few new bikinis in. Take for example, this rope print bandeau bikini in white and blue with a cute little bow in the middle and removable straps (in case you aren’t a huge fan of tan-lines). It’s a shame that we couldn’t have gotten our hands on this at the very start of summer, but for only $50.00 it’s still a worthy buy even this late in the game. Because even if we aren’t the best at tying sailor knots, we sure don’t mind wearing them. [Suit Up!]

If you haven’t picked up on it by now this summer, shorter shorts are the look. So we hope you’ve said bye-bye to your baggier, longer trunks and picked up a pair of short-shorts - or at least shorter. You’ve probably caught on to our feelings about Vilebrequin, and we definitely appreciate these blue stripe ‘Moorea’ swim trunks by the beloved company. The cool 80s feel to the color striping, elastic waistband and tie, along with the perfect length make us big fans. So who wears short shorts? We hope you do boys! [Suit Up!]

Tracy Feith is a Surf Lodge staple. The designer himself, his clothing, even his look-alike: they all pop up at the Montauk hot spot regularly. So when we saw this African print bikini we thought it would fit in perfect with the laid-back atmosphere of one of our favorite places. A little bit on the pricey side, what really swung us was the polka dot lining of the suit. That and the over-sized bow sold us - Tracy Feith has done it again. So even if you can no longer purchase this suit at the Tracy Feith boutique located in the Surf Lodge, we got you covered. Although we’re not sure if we recommend wearing it as your attire on a Saturday night. [Suit Up!]

[Picture via Zimbio ] We thought we’d bring you a taste of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival in Brisbane just in case you weren’t able to take time from your busy Hamptons schedule to get to Australia. This suit that debuted there from Riot Swimwear is a dainty little ruched one-piece that looks like it’s a continuous piece of water. Even if you think the matching cover-up is a bit overkill, we think you’ll agree that it’s definitely different than anything we’ve seen so far.

We’re not extreme girly-girls. We don’t wear make-up to the beach. I’m slightly embarrassed of my Gossip Girl obsession. And we’re not huge Lily Pulitzer fans. So you might be able to say this hot pink flamingo bikini by Tara Matthews is as close as you’re going to get us to pool-side zoo creatures. But the white and pink sequin flamingo is pretty adorable - in a kitschy kind of way. And while hot pink isn’t really our thing, it does any flamingo justice. Besides, it’s the end of summer. It’s time to pack as much fun in as possible. And what’s more fun than this bikini? If you can think of something, let us know. [Suit Up!]

At the charity event for Best Buddies at the Tory Burch store in East Hampton on Saturday, we had some worries for our bank accounts. We had to resist the urge to scoop up the fall fashions just hanging on the racks. But considering the practicality of wearing a sweater coat in 85 degree weather, we held back (for the most part). If you, like us, want to get a Tory fix though, you can still do it with this Grenada bikini. More »
