Sauipe Swimwear Bathing Suit Giveaway

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

With bathing suit season on its way, how will we know which suit to choose…LA based Brazilian designer, Marcia Hacker, knows everything there is to know about suits (and cover ups). Recently, Sports Illustrated took notice and endorsed her line by featuring three sexy suits on some of the world’s top models in their 2009 Swimsuit Edition and three more in the highly anticipated issue’s online version.

Inspired by Costa do Sauipe, one of the most beautiful and evocative destinations in the Brazilian state of Bahia, Sauipe Swimwear reflects the rich natural beauty of Brazil’s beaches, people, and traditions. Original designs and exclusive prints play out on high quality textiles, many of which are finished with one-of-a-kind hand-beaded details. Sauipe’s ‘modified Brazilian’ cut maintains sex appeal while offering wear-ability and more coverage than the typical Brazilian  bikini.

We have two amazing suits to give away (pics above, size M). Comment and let us know why think you deserve them and I will pick one lucky winner at the end of tomorrow and ship them to you.

Bar Refaeli to Host House of Style

Edited by Andy Wass

Bar Refaeli has confirmed with Time that she will be hosting the remake of MTV’s House of Style.

She seems to be quite the model of the moment right now, given her big Sports Illustrated cover. I still couldn’t pick her out of a line-up, though. Sorry, Leo.
