Land Rover has unveiled its first luxury compact convertible SUV along the iconic coastline of Los Angeles in Santa Monica, California, USA.

SPECTRE actress Naomie Harris was one of the first to view the newest member of the Range Rover family, as it was revealed for the first time ahead of the Los Angeles Auto Show.

Following the recent global release of SPECTRE, the 24th James Bond adventure, which features vehicles produced by the Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations division, Harris joined the brand to receive an exclusive first look at the new Range Rover Evoque Convertible as it debuted in the US.

Marrying luxury with an elegant four-seat convertible design, versatile storage and unrivalled capability both on and off-road, the new Range Rover Evoque Convertible combines the bold design and refinement of the Range Rover Evoque with a sophisticated folding roof to create a versatile, all-season convertible SUV.

High-Cut 90s Swimsuits Make a Splash Thanks To Miley Cyrus & Cameron Diaz

Posted on by

The iconic high-cut ‘90s swimsuit makes a splash on eBay as Miley Cyrus and Cameron Diaz champion the one piece this summer

highcutswimsuit MILEY CYRUS CAMERON DIAZ

The infamous high-waisted Baywatch style bathing suit is back with a vengeance this season, as British sun seekers turn up the heat and embrace the dare-to-bare trend of the ‘90s.

In the last month alone, eBay, one of the world’s largest marketplaces, has seen a huge surge in sales of the high-cut poolside apparel by 329%*.

Leading the charge for the ‘90s revival is wild child Miley Cyrus, who pioneered a new slim line silhouette when undergoing her radical transformation from Disney ‘girl next door’ to pop rebel. Consistently flaunting an eye-catching hip-high suit, Miley wore on her Bangerz Tour creations by Marc Jacobs, Roberto Cavalli and The Blonds, reigniting a thirst for lycra in a variety of vibrant shades and prints.

New on the scene, Aussie rapper Iggy Azalea has also been donning glamorous swimsuits by American designers Marco Marco and Betsey Johnson in the past few months. Not for the fainthearted, Iggy has been reinventing the meaning of Riviera chic, confirming that tan lines are trophies and hipbones are the ‘new cleavage’ for 2014.

By contrast, America’s sweetheart Cameron Diaz showcased a sleek and sophisticated interpretation of the trend, appearing on the cover of this month’s Esquire magazine. Cameron exuded elegance in a jaw-dropping LBS (Little Black Swimsuit), perfectly accessorised with a pair of gold pumps. For those that are inspired by Ms Diaz’s alluring one-shoulder black swimsuit, eBay.co.uk currently lists 850** options to choose from.

The one piece has also proven popular amongst the most fierce and fearless females too. Both Jennifer Lopez and Beyoncé have recently made onstage appearances in garments that caress every curve in an array of colours and cuts, proving that all a diva really needs is a showstopping one piece.

Slim shark or curvy mermaid? Dressing for your shape on the beach By Lizzy Pudner

Slim shark or curvy mermaid? Dressing for your shape on the beach

 

By Lizzy Pudner, Marketing Director at StarBlu luxury resort wear

 

Whether it’s in Cornwall or California lots of us will be seeking out sunny beach destinations this year. But revealing a body that’s been hidden away from the sun’s rays for months is a pretty daunting prospect even for the most honed and toned women. The good news is that you don’t have to resemble a tanned Swimsuit Illustrated model to look beautiful, or most importantly to feel confident on the beach.

To start with, get familiar with your basic body shape and then think about which bits you want to flaunt and which you’d rather cover up.

We all fit roughly into these categories – sporty or ‘shark’ (think Kate Hudson’s boyish and lean shape), hourglass, the mermaid in beach fashion terms (a curvy Kim Kardashian type), or more pear-shaped, ‘the shrimp’, smaller up top but with a rounded bottom (like Rihanna). The good news is there’s a bikini or swimsuit to suit every shape.

If you’re a slim shark…

Sporty, athletic shapes or ‘lean columns’ as they are sometimes known, can wear most things but need to create curves and accentuate the bust, so a horizontal print bikini with stripes or colourful detailing works best. Bikinis that have padding in the bust are a must to create a softer, more feminine shape (which is flattering in photos too).

 

When you want a bit more cover or dignity, a feminine, floaty maxi dress softens the lean look. Equally, the new big thing in resort wear for 2012, the beach jumpsuit softens those angular lines by pulling in at the waist but giving added volume at the bust.

 

If you’re a shrimp…

A pear-shaped or triangular body shape should accentuate the top half of the body, so chose swimwear that emphasizes the bust and minimizes the bottom and hips. Anything bold or patterned on the top is good, which is handy as this season is all about strong colours and striking patterns. A colourful tankini will also draw the eye to the top half. Team our swimwear with a cover-up like our Tuscany kaftan which with its structured A-line cut is perfect to hide the less than perfect bits!

 

If you’re a mermaid…

Neat hourglass figures are the most balanced of the body shapes.

Mermaids tend to have great waists so show them off in bikinis. If you’re big up top, a halterneck bikini is good for hoisting you up and giving support and definition to the bust.

Mad Men style structured all in one swimming costumes also look very sexy on an hourglass shape.

And when the sun goes down try a becoming, low cut maxi dress that goes in at the waist but shows off a great bust.
