Bikini Tartare


Performance artist and fashion icon, Lady Gaga, has never been afraid of expressing herself through what she wears. She recently posed for the cover of Vogue Hommes Japan with slabs of raw beef  slung over her slender frame, and immediately generated slew of responses.

Gaga presents many issues by covering her private areas with raw meat: America as a society is one of the largest consumers of beef and practices the cruelest methods of factory farming while a large population of third world countries are suffering from starvation.

Lady Gaga is making a statement, no doubt. Whether it's tasteful or tasteless is up for debate. As a bikini, this might not be the most appropriate attire for the beach, but it looks great on the cover of a magazine.

The Splash!!!


Since I was an small girl I have been infatuated with bathing suits.  I have a burning passion to design and sew bikinis on my own, which I hope to make become a reality soon.  I feel that this blog will help to lead me into the right direction; acting as a place for inspirational progress within my style and tastes to greater define what those are exactly.

Not only do I hope to celebrate the bathing suit as an article of clothing, but also keeping in mind current trends in beachwear. 

This is my first attempt to create a blog that I will post on religiously in order to benefit my creative brains. So, stay tuned for exciting news about sophisticated and oh-so-stunning styles that will make you want to hit the beach.
