For this week's edition of Caroline hits a shop and shows you what's in stock - we're focusing on nautical-inspired swimwear and I've chosen the literally-just-arrived range at Tommy Hilfiger Baystreet.
Throughout the colder months I'm not really one to go for anything navy and I tend to stay away from looks that are vaguely nautical...when summer arrives though I notice that without actually thinking about it, I start to gravitate towards these colours...however I've also noticed that the pieces I focus more attention on are generally less preppy and maybe with something cute or 'different' in the design.
In this swimwear range ..there's both..there's perfectly preppy nautical that is Tommy Hilfiger all over but then there are some cuter styles (look right down for the red checked bikini ...awwww)
and some with gold hardware additions that are ultra stylish like this first pic below.
Bikini Shopping Advice Now I'm one of those people that hates trying on clothes and often 'just buy' stuff but when buying swimwear I do really advocate that you ensure it fits perfectly.....the pants should NOT dig into the waist and create love handles, the bra cups should NOT be half empty and the back strap should remain in a horizontal line.For apples I recommend swimsuits as a much more flattering option...if you've got broad shoulders avoid halter necks.For pears bikinis with a bit of top padding and strapless or halter styles are your best bet, for pears avoid buying pants that cover too much of your bum, ironically that will make it look larger.
All the diff styles together...
And to carry alll those important things...you know beach towel..book...sweets that don't melt....
For those who really truly truly don't know, there are Tommy Hilfiger Stores in Baystreet and Valletta and they have a facebook page right here .
