One of the important things to keep in mind when we're figuring out how to best disguise our least favorite body part is that there are other body parts that we <em>do </em>like, and so instead of just disguising, we want to look at how to draw attention elsewhere.<br /><br />If your problem is a short torso, chances are that you have fairly long legs. While you don't want to wear teeny-tiny shorts around all the time to show off how long they are, keep them in mind while you shop, and don't be afraid to flaunt what you have. However, we have a few tips to help you keep your body looking proportional -- check out what we have to say in the gallery!<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Flatter Your Figure: Lengthen a short torso</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/flatter-your-figure-lengthen-a-short-torso/894866/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/07/language-los-angeles-drawing-room-strapless-dress,-$128_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Dresses" title="Dresses" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/flatter-your-figure-lengthen-a-short-torso/894864/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/07/flounce-tbd-crisscross-blouson-top,-$57.90_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Tops" title="Tops" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/flatter-your-figure-lengthen-a-short-torso/894862/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/07/citizens-of-humanity-ingrid-stretch-jeans-(corfu-wash),-$191_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Pants" title="Pants" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/flatter-your-figure-lengthen-a-short-torso/894865/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/07/juicy-couture-beach-ruffle-skirtini-price-varies_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Swimwear" title="Swimwear" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/flatter-your-figure-lengthen-a-short-torso/894863/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/07/dabby-reid-ltd.-long-strand-necklace,-$148_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Accessories" title="Accessories" /></a></div><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://choosers.ivillage.co.uk/beauty/figure_flatterer/>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/07/03/flatter-your-figure-elongating-a-short-torso/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1242485/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/07/03/flatter-your-figure-elongating-a-short-torso/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1242485"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1242485?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1242485" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1242485&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/07/03/flatter-your-figure-elongating-a-short-torso/" /></p>]]></description><category>dresses</category><category>elongate</category><category>figure</category><category>flatter</category><category>how to</category><category>HowTo</category><category>lengthen</category><category>nordstrom</category><category>pants</category><category>short torso</category><category>ShortTorso</category><category>tops</category><category>torso</category><dc:creator>Kristen Seymour</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-07-03T08:59:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Stylelist Poll: Floppy hats hot or cold?</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/stylelist-poll-floppy-hats-hot-or-cold/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/stylelist-poll-floppy-hats-hot-or-cold/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/stylelist-poll-floppy-hats-hot-or-cold/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/accessories/" rel="tag">Accessories</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/swimwear/" rel="tag">Swimwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylelist-polls/" rel="tag">Stylelist Polls</a></p><p> </p>

Some of us (*ahem* me) will burn at the mere mention of the sun, but the rest of us worry about balancing getting some color without needlessly exposing our skin to harmful UV rays.<br /><br />Fortunately, fashion has offered us a helping hand via the sunhat. A big, floppy sunhat, while not always fashionable, can do a lot to block the worst of the sun, while still letting us soak up some vitamin D and enjoy the outdoors. Even better, in typical fashionista, well, fashion, big overly dramatic sunhats are becoming quite popular this season.<br /><br />So our friends at <a href="http://www.stylelist.com">Stylelist</a> have this question for their newest weekly poll: Are you hot or cold on uber-dramatic sunhats?<br /><br />We think that the right style, worn the right way, can be positively stunning -- but we'd love to know what you think. Vote in the Stylelist poll and then sound-off in the comments!<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://www.stylelist.com/>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/stylelist-poll-floppy-hats-hot-or-cold/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1241229/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/stylelist-poll-floppy-hats-hot-or-cold/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1241229"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1241229?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1241229" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1241229&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/stylelist-poll-floppy-hats-hot-or-cold/" /></p>]]></description><category>hats</category><category>polls</category><category>stylelist</category><category>stylelist polls</category><category>StylelistPolls</category><category>summer</category><dc:creator>Christina Warren</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-30T18:21:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Alexander McQueen's creepy necktie/speedo</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/25/alexander-mcqueens-creepy-necktie-speedo/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/25/alexander-mcqueens-creepy-necktie-speedo/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/25/alexander-mcqueens-creepy-necktie-speedo/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/swimwear/" rel="tag">Swimwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/designers/" rel="tag">Designers</a></p><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" align="right" alt="" id="img1" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81663917%282%29.jpg" /><br />We deeply respect an individual's right to wear <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/13/can-you-get-a-ticket-for-wearing-a-speedo/">whatever kind of swimsuit they want</a> -- or even their right not to wear one -- but we totally did a double-take when we saw Alexander McQueen's creepy neck-binding men's swimsuit. In fact, we kind of did that thing where you vomit a little in the back of your throat. Some have compared it to Borat's famous <a href="http://hauteconcept.com/2008/06/24/alexander-mcqueen-splain-yourself/">over-the-shoulder thong</a>, but honestly -- we think this one is much worse. <br /><br />The thing about swimsuits is that they are meant to cover only what is deem inappropriate in public. For men, that's usually below the waist (unless they've got an outrageously hairy back). This suit looks more like some kind of kinky dominatrix outfit than something a person would choose to wear. Plus, it seems like it might pose a strangulation hazard if you wore it out on the water. <em>What do you say</em> -- is it really as hideous as we think it is?<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/photos/mcqueens-spandex-and-vertical-stripes/">McQueen's Spandex and Vertical Stripes in Milan</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.styledash.com/photos/mcqueens-spandex-and-vertical-stripes/882827/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81663914_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Female Version" title="Female Version" /></a><a href="http://www.styledash.com/photos/mcqueens-spandex-and-vertical-stripes/882831/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81663996_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.styledash.com/photos/mcqueens-spandex-and-vertical-stripes/882830/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81663983(2)_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Full Body Necktie" title="Full Body Necktie" /></a><a href="http://www.styledash.com/photos/mcqueens-spandex-and-vertical-stripes/882828/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81663933_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Vertical Stripe" title="Vertical Stripe" /></a><a href="http://www.styledash.com/photos/mcqueens-spandex-and-vertical-stripes/882829/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81663956_thumbnail.jpg" alt="More Spandex" title="More Spandex" /></a></div><br />Could it be that this suit was designed for women vacationing in Southern France?

Though normally quick witted, he suddenly can't string even the simplest sentences together without tripping over words -- he's indecisive, and his brain wanders constantly like he's been sneaking sips of whiskey. So what gives?<br /><br />According to a recent scientific study, it turns out <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25197962/">all the boobs are making him stupid</a>. This probably isn't news to you, but now it's been proven officially in a report titled: "Bikinis Instigate Generalized Impatience in Intertemporal Choice."

While the film may otherwise look completely awful, at least you'll have something to focus on in between shots of Mike Myers pulling faces and making stupid jokes.  <br /><br />Timberlake talks about this foray into revealing men's swimwear in the above interview.  Turns out he wasn't very comfortable showing so much skin, and is hoping that this little stunt won't bring skimpy swimming trunks back into fashion.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Speedos: the Hot, the Horrible, and the Totally Heinous</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/speedos-the-hot-the-horrible-and-the-totally-heinous/803642/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/75638031_thumbnail.jpg" alt="HOT!" title="HOT!" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/speedos-the-hot-the-horrible-and-the-totally-heinous/803641/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/71364743_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Um, gross" title="Um, gross" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/speedos-the-hot-the-horrible-and-the-totally-heinous/803637/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/71466674_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Very hot!" title="Very hot!" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/speedos-the-hot-the-horrible-and-the-totally-heinous/803636/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/56032667_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Heinous!" title="Heinous!" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/speedos-the-hot-the-horrible-and-the-totally-heinous/803640/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/57060955_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Pretty damned attractive" title="Pretty damned attractive" /></a></div><br />We couldn't agree more.

No, no child; that's what you have us for. <br /><br />Here are a few tips for the svelte, bootylicious, buff, and lanky among us. This will be broken down into a four part section, so if you don't see your body type today, check back with us tomorrow k?<p><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/tip-of-the-day-suit-up-part-1-buff/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Tip of the Day: Suit up part 1; Buff</em></a></p><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://www.people.com/>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/tip-of-the-day-suit-up-part-1-buff/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1220314/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/tip-of-the-day-suit-up-part-1-buff/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1220314"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1220314?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1220314" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1220314&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/tip-of-the-day-suit-up-part-1-buff/" /></p>]]></description><category>active</category><category>bikini</category><category>bikini body</category><category>bikini bottom</category><category>BikiniBody</category><category>BikiniBottom</category><category>bikinis</category><category>bottom</category><category>buff</category><category>cameron diaz</category><category>CameronDiaz</category><category>exercise</category><category>exerciseoftheweek</category><category>exercises</category><category>fergie</category><category>fergilicious</category><category>jennifer aniston</category><category>jennifer aniston gai...</category><category>jennifer aniston imp...</category><category>jennifer aniston loo...</category><category>jennifer aniston naked</category><category>jennifer aniston wei...</category><category>JenniferAniston</category><category>JenniferAnistonGai...</category><category>JenniferAnistonImp...</category><category>JenniferAnistonLoo...</category><category>JenniferAnistonNaked</category><category>JenniferAnistonWei...</category><category>ocean reef</category><category>OceanReef</category><category>stacy ferguson</category><category>StacyFerguson</category><category>surf</category><category>surfer</category><category>surfing</category><category>surfs up</category><category>SurfsUp</category><category>swim</category><category>swim wear</category><category>swimming</category><category>SwimWear</category><category>top</category><category>vacation</category><category>vacations</category><dc:creator>Stephanie Beener</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-09T16:12:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Billabong Fashion Show</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/billabong-fashion-show/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/billabong-fashion-show/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/billabong-fashion-show/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/on-the-catwalk/" rel="tag">On the catwalk</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/on-location/" rel="tag">On location</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/swimwear/" rel="tag">Swimwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/celebrity-style/" rel="tag">Celebrity Style</a></p><em>Michael Buckner is a fashion and celebrity photographer who travels around the world taking pictures on the red carpet.

I roamed on the carpet on Vine Street until the models walked down the runway to music spun by DJ Aoki. Prog rock revivalists MGMT played to a packed house. <br /><br />The Surfrider Foundation is an environmental organization dedicated to the protection and enhancement of the world's waves and beaches through conservation, so beach apparel was the focus.<br /><br />Celebrity designers included Cory Kennedy, Lisa Kline, Jenny Han, Amber Valetta, Joy Bryant, and Charlotte Ronson. There were some throwbacks to the seventies and a tribute to the American flag to name a couple trends that Billabong hopes will catch on for Summer.<br /><br />Celebrities Adrien Grenier, Cameron Richardson, Juliette Lewis, Maynard James Keenan of Tool, John Legend were on hand to catch a glimpse of the show. <br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Billabong Swimsuit Fashion Show</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/billabong-swimsuit-fashion-show/849412/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81438331_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/billabong-swimsuit-fashion-show/849385/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81438150_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/billabong-swimsuit-fashion-show/849411/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81438311_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/billabong-swimsuit-fashion-show/849387/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81438155_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/billabong-swimsuit-fashion-show/849386/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/81438151_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/billabong-fashion-show/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1219329/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/billabong-fashion-show/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1219329"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1219329?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1219329" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1219329&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/09/billabong-fashion-show/" /></p>]]></description><category>celebrity</category><category>Fashion</category><category>models</category><category>photography</category><category>Runway</category><category>summer fashion</category><category>SummerFashion</category><category>swimwear</category><dc:creator>Michael Buckner</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-09T13:34:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Tip of the day: She's got legs and she knows how to use them!</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/29/tip-of-the-day-shes-got-legs-and-she-knows-how-to-use-them/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/29/tip-of-the-day-shes-got-legs-and-she-knows-how-to-use-them/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/29/tip-of-the-day-shes-got-legs-and-she-knows-how-to-use-them/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/style-icons/" rel="tag">Style icons</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/high-end-threads/" rel="tag">High-end threads</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/casual-wear/" rel="tag">Casual wear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/shoes/" rel="tag">Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/sporty-wear/" rel="tag">Sporty wear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/swimwear/" rel="tag">Swimwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/jeans-and-denim/" rel="tag">Jeans and Denim</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/dresses-and-skirts/" rel="tag">Dresses and Skirts</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/evening-wear/" rel="tag">Evening wear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/outerwear/" rel="tag">Outerwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/tops/" rel="tag">Tops</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/styles-that-stick/" rel="tag">Styles that Stick</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/flatter-your-figure/" rel="tag">Flatter Your Figure</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/tip-of-the-day/" rel="tag">Tip of the Day</a></p><br /><a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Ana_Beatriz_Barros_by_David_Shankbone.jpg"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/ana_beatriz_barros_by_david_shankbone.jpg" alt="" /></a>Many of us women out there suffer during the summer because we don't have stems like a supermodel.

York blogger Karyn Bosnak <a href="http://prettynthecity.blogspot.com/2008/05/papercraft-hermes-kelly-bag.html">drew our attention to</a> a new feature on the Hermes website which shows you how to make your own Hermes bag, just like the real thing. The only downside? You have to make it out of <em>paper... </em>a fun craft project, perhaps, but not likely to withstand the first rainy day of summer.<br /><br />If you'd like to make something a little more substantial (but only a <span style="font-style: italic;">little</span> more substantial), why not try your hand at making a bikini?<p><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/20/make-your-own-hermes-bag-or-how-about-a-diy-bikini/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Make your own Hermes bag... or how about a DIY bikini?</em></a></p><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/20/make-your-own-hermes-bag-or-how-about-a-diy-bikini/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1194849/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/20/make-your-own-hermes-bag-or-how-about-a-diy-bikini/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1194849"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1194849?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1194849" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1194849&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/20/make-your-own-hermes-bag-or-how-about-a-diy-bikini/" /></p>]]></description><category>bags</category><category>bikini</category><category>craft</category><category>crafts</category><category>customise</category><category>customising</category><category>eco style</category><category>handbag</category><category>hermes</category><category>purse</category><category>purses</category><category>reuse</category><category>swinwear</category><category>two piece</category><category>yellow</category><dc:creator>Diane Shipley</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-05-20T18:33:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Get dressed on Stone Island</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/get-dressed-on-stone-island/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/get-dressed-on-stone-island/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/get-dressed-on-stone-island/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/bags-and-purses/" rel="tag">Bags and Purses</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/accessories/" rel="tag">Accessories</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/casual-wear/" rel="tag">Casual wear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/shoes/" rel="tag">Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/sporty-wear/" rel="tag">Sporty wear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/swimwear/" rel="tag">Swimwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/jeans-and-denim/" rel="tag">Jeans and Denim</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/men/" rel="tag">Men</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/designers/" rel="tag">Designers</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/outerwear/" rel="tag">Outerwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/tops/" rel="tag">Tops</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/styles-that-stick/" rel="tag">Styles that Stick</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/under-the-radar/" rel="tag">Under the Radar</a></p><br /><a href="http://www.stoneisland.com/STONE_ISLAND/corner/tskay/4036416C/mm/269/gender/U/toll/P"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" align="right"  src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/jeans.jpg" alt="" />Stone Island </a>has released their Spring/Summer '08 line for men, and within it is something for everyone.

Of their four basic types of suit, bikini, 4" swim, 8" swim and snap short, respectively, our favorite is the 8" swim. It's not that we don't care for the other options that they carry, we really do, but frankly, if we tried to wear any of the other styles onto the beach we'd most likely <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/13/can-you-get-a-ticket-for-wearing-a-speedo/">be arrested</a>. Or at the very least ridiculed until we wound up under the pier in the fetal position. <br /><br />They are for the fit. Daniel Craig fit, not second base on the Styledash softball/drinking team fit.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Parke &amp; Ronen</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/parke-and-ronen/802313/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/microfiber_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/parke-and-ronen/802312/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/print-stretch_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/parke-and-ronen/802311/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/print_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Swimwear by Parke &amp; Ronen" title="Swimwear by Parke &amp; Ronen" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/parke-and-ronen/802310/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/boeing_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/parke-and-ronen/802309/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/dots_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/13/parke-and-ronen-mens-classic-swimwear/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Parke &amp; Ronen: Men's classic swimwear</em></a></p><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/13/parke-and-ronen-mens-classic-swimwear/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1194291/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/13/parke-and-ronen-mens-classic-swimwear/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1194291"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1194291?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1194291" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1194291&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/13/parke-and-ronen-mens-classic-swimwear/" /></p>]]></description><category>bikini</category><category>board</category><category>boardshort</category><category>daniel craig</category><category>featured</category><category>fetal</category><category>fitness</category><category>long shorts</category><category>LongShorts</category><category>parke ronen</category><category>ParkeRonen</category><category>short</category><category>suit</category><category>swim</category><category>swimwear</category><dc:creator>Whit Honea</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-05-13T17:11:00 00:00</dc:date></item></channel></rss>
