Hey there fashionistas! Friday, June 21 marked the first official day of summer. Of course, those of us who live in Arizona have been battling the heat for a while now, but now the calendar agrees with us — it is HOT! It’s time to start that weekend get-away packing and head poolside or out to the beach, pronto! Well, those of you who attended the Latino Fashion Live 2013 show saw some great styles for summer swim wear. The key to hanging by the pool or lounging at the beach is comfort, style and confidence. One of the best ways to show off a great tan without sacrificing comfort is to have the perfect beach cover-up. A good cover-up should show off the assets you want to share while providing an easy way to go from poolside to souvenir shopping, all in one afternoon. So what’s hot this season?
