Do you get the Driff, as in Midriff??

By Jenna D.

My Color Blocked Midriff Moment

Ok… so recently I have been blogging about one particular obsession for the week. Only,  because my obsession is so great. This week is the same. I’m Kinda Obsessed with Cropped Tops, Midriffs, Bralettes across the board. For those of you who are entering the world of Bare Midriffs my advice is to find the perfect one for your body type. There are a lot of things to keep in mind when deciding on how much skin to expose, such as the length of the top in relation to the bottom.   I prefer the skirt, short or pant to sit about 1-2 inch above your bellybutton (depending on the length of your torso)…..right wear your ribs stop… that is the smallest point of your waist so let’s accentuate it! From casual & evening chic, to form fitting & billowy…I’m obsessed!

I’m absolutely loving this whole wetsuit swimwear line, but my favorite one is the Cheeky.   It’s definitely different, and will be sure to turn heads!   The perfect accessory for any wetsuit would of course be a Rebecca Minkoff neon color blocked tote and Sam Edelman flip flops. This tote is not only the best beach bag, but it can also double as a great everyday bag as well!

                Now, my sister is a candle connoisseur and she is always trying to turn me on to multiple different brands and scents.  They all smell amazing of course, but hands down the best candle is Gardenia by Tocca.  I have been burning it in my home and it literally smells like there is a straight gardenia bush anywhere you light it. It’s the perfect home essential for spring time!

Easy, Breeziway, Beautiful

Today we received a special delivery from Breeziway, a company who designs "Feather Headpieces for Today's Fascinating Woman." Quite an intro to live up to! Luckily for us, the brides here at Hot Pink tend to be not only fascinating, but also, fabulous.

Feathers are one of the main ingredients in their delightful hair pieces, but they are also adorned with Swarovski crystals, pearls, and detachable brooches. Each piece is designed to be extremely light-weight, so you'll barely notice you're wearing anything at all.

Breeziway headpieces are perfect for any occasions, but were specially designed for special days like prom, birthdays, and of course wedding days.

Clients can choose from one of over 75 designs or work with the designer exclusively to create a custom piece. Head pieces can also be dyed to match or coordinate with your gown or ensemble.

Here is a sneak peek of the Breeziway headpieces we received at The Hot Pink Factory today:

For more information on these fabulous pieces, contact us or visit their website, www.breeziway.com, and tell them the Hot Pink girls sent you!

Bikini Babes: Piret Collection

One of the major perks of our jobs as stylists, other than, well everything...is that we get a chance to feature up and coming designers in our showroom at The Hot Pink Factory.

Piret, of Piret Bikinis sent us a few of her designs to keep on hand for photo shoots and styling.

The handmade bikinis are all one of a kind and definitely deisgned for the brave beach bunnies who aren't afraid to show a little skin. The ruched backing is one of the details we love, and give beach bums the perfect lift.

She also makes coordinating headbands which can also double for a belt. They look great even without the coordinating bikini--and we love rocking them with our favorite boho maxi.

We're also proudly using them in our upcoming calendar shoot for the Heavyweight Factory--don't be fooled by the name--this is actually a shoot for the sexy ring girls that prance across the ring during fights. (Pictures to follow!)

To get your hands on one of Piret's exclusive bikinis, contact us here at the Hot Pink Factory and we'll be happy to point you in the right direction.

Weekly Shoe Forecast

It is time for your Weekly Shoe Forecast brought to you by Hot Pink Style, http://www.hotpinkstyle.com/. Right now, it is about a 95% chance of Wedges! Now that the temperatures are rising, unfortunately the boots are melting away.

But not to fret the wedges for the spring are ridiculous! Of course its all about the wood bottoms, corks mixed with bright colors, metallics, and the higher the wedge...the better! If you feel like you're on stilts, then you know you have the achieved the ultimate wedge.

Also look out for a very unique style wedge this season, it s anew species we've dubbed, the half breed wedge. It's a wedge with a peeptoe and a thick ankle strap.

Of course, you can find these coveted Wedges at any major department store, or Hot Pink Style can bring the shoes to you with one of their famous Hot Pink Shoe Parties.

The Official Curling Iron of Hot Pink Style

The official irons of Hot Pink Style are made by Enzo Milano. They are hands down the best curling irons on the market, and don't let the clip-free design scare you, they are simple to use once you get the hang of it. And a bonus, these irons are much less damaging to your hair compared to the traditional curling iron model, which can create kinks and dents in your curls.

The Enzo Milano irons create a fabulous wave that lasts all day. They come in different thicknesses depending on the width of the wave or curl you are going for, and their patented Tribostatic technology heats the iron to the maximum temperature in 60 seconds and keeps the heat constant. Additionally, the barrel has an Aluminum non-stick coating that acts a protective barrier to your hair.

It also comes with a heat proof glove for a better grip and avoiding burns, and of course, anything that comes in PINK gets our stamp of approval.

All Irons are available at the Hot Pink Showroom on online at www.enzomilano.com.

Jump On It

It's not that we're against separates, but why wear two pieces of clothing when you can wear one? Our current obsession of the moment...Jumpsuits....Or as we here at Hot Pink like to call them, "Onesies". There are so many different styles, and options to choose from. They're comfortable, chic and despite what most people think, you don't have to be stick-thin and 6 feet tall to wear them, there's a style out there for all body types.

Wear one for running around during the day and a dressier longer version for night. It 's the new black dress for the season. Pair them with a dressy flip flop, or a fabulous stiletto, and you can't go wrong!


Make your next occasion a jumpsuit occasion!

Jenna's Shoe Forecast: Global Warming Edition*

Three earthquakes, threats of tsunamis, and unseasonally chilly weather in south-FLA. It's obvious that the weather is utter chaos, but all of this aside...what's a girl to wear?

This week I am still forecasting 100% boots. But this week, we're highlighting the hybrid boot...the cross between the motorcycle and cowboy style boot. It looks great with a dress, jeans, leggings, and even cutoffs when it warms up (IF it warms up.)

As with any risque shoe choice, you've got to own it. So if you're dying for a pair of boots like these babies, email jdhotpink@yahoo.com for your very own shoe-tastic personal styling experience.
