Celeb Bathing Suit Style, Couture in the City Fashion Blog























Cameron Diaz























Kate Bosworth























Sienna Miller

It's no secret that most celebs have to work long and hard for their killer bods, and the fruits of their labor is on full display every summer. It's officially bathing suit season and as usual, everything goes from nautical stripes to colorful combinations and of course, the classic black bikini.

One of the best things about a swimsuit is that, if properly cared for, it can last for years and continue to be worn well beyond its first swimsuit season. Sure, you can go to a variety of stores and pick up a low quality swimsuit for under $50, but it may not have the kind of longevity you are looking for.

Geftaki Swimsuits are the perfect answer for anyone wanting to marry fashion with function in their swim wear. Totally unique, Geftaki uses hand embroidery, Swarovski crystals and a variety of other high quality embellishments to create to most artful and jaw dropping designs ever to grace the shore. Check them out today on LeFashionista for some great summer swim suit inspiration.























Geftaki - All Studded Up String Bikini in Fire Engine Red, $134























Geftaki - Black O-Ring Bikini with Swarovski Crystal Embellishment, $189

What's New at Life & Style? Couture in the City Fashion Blog


What's new this week at Life & Style? Every week Life & Style features 7 trends in 7 days, and this week was no different. Standing out in the crowd was Jessica Alba's cowl necked crochet sweater...HOT!











How cute is Hayden Panettiere? She looks so fresh in her yellow and white striped sun dress and compliments it perfectly with her large white purse. If you are looking for the perfect accessory for you summer wardrobe, a large white purse is guaranteed to do the trick.














Stars are stepping out in cute and colorful satin frocks, and I love it! It's like a 1950's prom meets contemporary chic...how can you go wrong? Drew Barrymore's yellow dress a little too intense for your tastes? Try a yellow satin clutch instead!







Life & Style reports that stars are going crazy for studded accessories. Me? I don't like it so much, but you decide for yourself. While this may be a short lived trend, aren't they all?












Stars face off on Who got it Right? and compete in a fashion war of the trends. I believe that Gwyneth properly rocks her ankle strap peep toe shoes, Reese owns her oversized black bag and well, those earrings are so awesome that anyone could wear them!

Check out all of this and more at Life & Style, one of our favorite resources for celebrity news, fashion and more!

For many, May marks the official start of summer...so what's with all the drab gray? Stars like Ashlee Simpson, Drew Barrymore and Kerry Washington are turning gray from drab to fab in everything from casual wear to club wear and even formal wear.

I for one have never been crazy about gray, but these stars seem to make this color (or rather, shade) work. I could give or take Drew's gray ensemble, but Kerry Washington's dress is simply to die for! The whole thing is working for me, the shoes are cute and the dress is so elegant...I bet it would look good on any figure in almost any color. Fab!

Feel like going against the season and opting for gray as well? Then check out this super cute bubble skirt from Prospect 44. The bubble cut gives it sass and the shade gives it class, making this the perfect skirt for work, formal events, going out, or just a Saturday afternoon.
