Happy Swimsuit Saturday! I usually don't post over the weekend but I couldn't wait any longer to share this post with you. Okay, I meant to share it yesterday but then I thought this would be find for Swimsuit Saturday.

There's nothing like spending a beautiful day, basking in the sun, building sand castles and taking a dip in the ocean waters. I love the beach and my favorite style to rock while there is retro, of course! 

Summer, summer, summertime! Just a few months ago I was on vacation in Panama basking in the glorious sunlight hoping it would erase all of my Winter blues and as I laid there I couldn't help but hope NYC would warm up soon. We had a long winter but fast forward to today and we're all glowing in the big apple; ready for swimsuit season!  For me swim-season usually means it's time to pull out my summer turbans, tassels and tropical printed pieces. 

It's no secret I love the designs of luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana. I've shared a few of my inspired looks like this one (I rocked last January on vacation in Colombia) as well as many of their images to serve as inspiration.  

Dolce & Gabbana's designs are reminiscent of vintage-styles and silhouettes while being modern and playful. Bold patterns, mixed prints, heavy embellishments and ostentatious flair pervade their work and I appreciate all those aspects in fashion. My #stylesister Beyonce has also been spotted rocking their pieces with one of the most recent being a sweet mommy and daughter moment on Mother's day when the two wore Dolce's Hydrangea print dresses. 

Now with all that said, I cannot ignore the recent controversy around Melania Trump wearing their pieces. 

So let's chat about it below the jump!
