The Benefit of Bows.

Friday, February 22nd, 2013

We’re so glad that the bow trend is big this season because frankly, we can’t get enough. From structured ones, to more casually-tied ones, they have the capacity to be girlish, sexy, coy and flirty all at the same time.

Bow Bottom and Bow Romper by LULI FAMA

Crystalized and paired with tassels they become flirty, and who better to attack flirty than Miami-based Luli Fama. Tack their famous ruched Brazilian coverage to the mix and these bottoms were a no-brainer. We’ve got them in the apple green and white (couldn’t resist!!)

Rock n’ Roll 1pc and Crimson & Clover Top by LOLLI

Lolli shot (and when we say shot we mean SKYROCKETED) to superstardom with their Bow Bottom. They were sweet, adorable and girly– all the things you could ever ask for. But their 2013 collection is jaw-droppingly different. Inspired by vintage rock, their new collection shows off the edgier side of bows.

And finally, the knotted bow. These casually tied knots add just the right amount of relaxation to these structured one-pieces. They feel pin-up inspired, but not overly so, and paired with the textured fabric these bows still feel refined and unique!

The Athletic Aesthetic

Thursday, February 14th, 2013

Sporty chic has never been (or looked) better, and we’re liking the streamlined versions that have been showing up as of late.

Delicate and feminine racer back — Uluwatu & Lahaina Bottom by MIKOH, Tieback Bra & Euro Short by GREENLEE

Scuba inspired colorblocked Neo Bandeau & Geo Hipster and Strap Back & Low Down Bottom both by L*SPACE

It’s nice to see sporty designs that still retain touches of femininity, reiterating once again that sportswear can be as fashionable as it is functional!

Many of our clients have been saying they love to wear this Salt Creek Sweetheart Top while working out, and we love the idea of a bikini top doing double duty! Yoga then the beach! The Leslie Tunic is also great over some tights for a quick jog, then as a basic coverup around the pool– both by VITAMIN A SILVER

Spring/Summer 2013!

Wednesday, February 13th, 2013

Summertime and the livin’s easy. Hopefully this will become the Molly Brown’s mantra come summertime, but right now, we’re working hard to bring you brand new summer collections from your favorite designers!

Marina Poncho Ultramarine + Carmela Brasilia Oasis by VITAMIN A GOLD

The transition from cruise season to spring and summer is going to be a bright one, and we’re already seeing vibrant corals, powder pinks and blues, and rich luscious purples popping onto beaches everywhere!

Skinnie Minnie Trixter + Chloe Wrap Trixter by L*SPACE

SO glad to see purple getting a moment in the spotlight! No complaints here!

xoxo Molly

P.S. Couldn’t resist putting up this teeny watermelon fringe bikini!

TOO CUTE! Baby Audrey Fringe Bikini by L*SPACE

Bright Bridal White

Monday, February 11th, 2013

In honor of all the beautiful brides, and because our Mollies had such a successful weekend at the Beautiful Bride Expo in Las Vegas, we though we’d take the time to showcase some of our favorite bridal white pieces. Not only are they made for any lady searching for honeymoon attire, they’re really suitable for any and all occasions in which you are aiming to look white HOT!

Helice Bikini by Agua Bendita & Talitha Tunic by Vitamin A

Spa White Laser Cut Bikini by PILY Q

Amazon Bikini – Pearl by diNeila & Tassel Dress by Anna Kosturova

And for the non-traditionalists, a slight off-white never hurt anybody…

Marquee Romper and Seville Skirt by The Collection by L*SPACE

Bright whites honestly become as versatile as black during summertime, and these pieces can be worn as stand alone showcase items or layered for a more styled look.

Shine Bright Like a Diamond.

Monday, December 31st, 2012

Sequined swimwear is only fitting given that today is New Year’s Eve! 2012 was a great year, and we hope the growth and fun only continues into 2013! New Year’s Eve is always filled with shiny, pretty things– champagne, confetti, sequins and glitter– and the sequin-adorned suits popping up from many of this season’s top designers have us giddy for the countdown!

L: La Ciudad Caftan by THE COLLECTION by L*SPACE

R: Wild Indulgence by LULI FAMA

L: Capri by CHIO SWIMWEAR

R: Rio Peach by DINEILA

Whether you’re ringing in the new year sipping bubbly or watching the ball drop in Time’s Square, these sparkling beauties are hard to resist!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! XOXO — M

Post-Holiday Cheer (and Cheek)!

Wednesday, December 26th, 2012

Hope your holidays were full of rest and relaxation, silly Christmas movies, good-times spent with friends and family, and of course, a little holiday shopping. Shopping BEFORE and FOR the holidays can be a bit stressful (totally fun!) but stressful. POST-holiday shopping, after the madness has died down, is just plain fun, minus the stress. Call us nuts but we love after-Christmas shopping, and this winter season we’re still dreaming of summer, and the cheeky bottoms we’ll be living in…

L: Cutie Pie Bow Bottom by LOLLI, R: Euro Short by GREENLEE

Even though it offers a little more coverage on the sides, a booty-short always feels… well, a bit cheekier. It’s playful, flirty and obviously flattering.

L: Supermodel Bottom by VITAMINA, R: Mumbai Bottom by ACACIA

Ruching down the back creates a look that’s a bit sexier and more revealing. If you’re not afraid to show a little skin, the famous “scrunch-butt” or ruching is for you! Because these Vitamin A Supermodel bottoms still have thicker side panels, the look is cheeky instead of Brazilian!

Milano Bottom by L*SPACE

Take your pick! xoxo Molly

4 Fringe Suits!

Friday, December 21st, 2012

Fringe has been extremely popular these last two seasons, and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down at all! This season we’re seeing it on tops, bottoms, one-pieces– in both solids and prints! Sexy, flirty and fun, here are four fringed suits that we absolutely love.

5 Goooolden Riiiings!

Thursday, December 20th, 2012

With 5 days left until Christmas we figured it only fitting that we share our favorite 5 golden rings featured on swimwear! Rings are a chic way to add refined glamour to an swim piece, and we think these are beautifully enhanced by the accent. xoxo

Amazing curved ring (for comfort and fit) detailing on this Cosmo + Superstar by VITAMIN A, and the famous hipster D shaped Ring on the Byrdie + D Ring by LSPACE

Pretty and chic gold ring grommet detailing on the Sinitta Coverup by ODABASH

Amazing strappy design anchored by a small golden ring on the Dillon Top by SALT, and two rings featured on the straps on the sexy Lady Jane by AMERICAN HONEY

All are so different but all feature gold ring accents. Which is your favorite?

<3 Molly

Happy Holidays from Molly Brown’s!

Friday, December 7th, 2012

It’s not too early for holiday cheer is it? We might just be excited about our winter windows in LAS VEGAS! Visit them at the Cosmopolitan Hotel!

Just because winter is coming, doesn’t mean swimwear is out of season. In fact– this is the time of year we’re getting in all our new collections and lines, so really it’s the perfect time to get your summer swim wardrobe together (while sizes are still available and in stock!) ONE of those amazing new lines is The Collection by the famous Monica Wise  designer of L*Space, and it’s a collection that consists of some of the most gorgeous and wearable coverups we’ve seen yet.

Layer either of these long-sleeved beauties over some tights and boots for a winter ensemble, then pair it with bare legs and your bikini come summer! We love the versatility and the neutral color palette.

This is in no way saying we’ll be staying away from bikinis this winter ;) Bundling up in a jacuzzi somewhere is in our near future, and it should be in yours too! And P.S. Tonight’s Hospitality Night! Come in to our Laguna Beach store for food, drink and EIGHT chances to win suits, coverups and shoes from some of your favorite designers! 490 S. Pacific Coast Hwy Laguna Beach, CA 92651 Hope to see you there!
