A Summer Uniform: Bathing Suits

photos by Urko Suaya, images via here

This would be a wonderful way to lounge about all Summer; in a lovely bathing suit paired with fabulous high heels.  The gals look sexy in it, the guys would appreciate it.  It's a win-win. 
These gorgeous photos are by the talented Urko Suaya, an international photographer who has been shooting such stunning images for 25 years. 
These images really spoke to us.  That first one reminds us of a Kate Spade ad (even the last one, because it's a bit quirky), which is a high compliment coming from us!  The picture of the model on the scale next to the pool is a position we would never put ourselves in (right?).  Let us know which one is your favorite!

Clube Bossa - Brazilian Swimwear

images via Clube Bossa

While most swimwear designers look to Brazil for their inspiration, this Brazilian swimwear label looked to Paris for inspiration for the Spring/Summer 2010 collection. Clube Bossa is a sophisticated swimwear label with statement pieces designed by Guilherme Vieira. It is quite contemporary with a vintage flair and certainly sexy without showing excessive skin. The Summer collection is right on trend with the high waist bikini styles and the ruched one-piece suits.
The Clube Bossa website describes the inspiration for the current season as follows:

Spring Summer 2010 collection was inspired in a visit to Paris
early 2009, when the charm and beauty of Paris and Parisians
made Vieira reflect on the daily life and the opportunities lost by
not evaluating properly the world around us. The collection was
named Flânerie, French word that describes the act of ranging
around looking for new satisfaction in simple routine activities.

These swimwear images are so beautiful and work wonderfully in these photographs, but we're not sure that we would pull-off such a muted/neutral swimsuit in 'real life'. What about you?
