Bar Refaeli to be the face of Hurley

Posted Jul 18th 2008 at 1:02PM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style


Bar Refaeli might be as well known for being Leonardo DiCaprio's sweetie as for her modeling career, but she's looking to change that. The Israeli model is set to be the face (and the body) in Hurley's upcoming campaign.

This October, most fashion mags you pick up will have an image or two of Refaeli wearing Hurley's Spring 2009 line of bikinis, sheer tees, and denim shorts. The images are meant to "illustrate a theme of a young woman's journey and discovery." We think it's more likely they'll illustrate Refaeli's sexy curves.

Gallery: Here's why Hurley wants Bar Refaeli

She always looks natural.She seems like fun.Oh yeah, and THOSE.She looks great when she's not all But, she dolls up well, too.

Filed under: Clothing, Swimwear and Lingerie, Style Tip of the Day


Why do celebrities always look so damn good in their bathing suits? Personal trainers, in-house chefs, and puking aside, they look good because their stylist dresses them every day (damn them). But you don't need a stylist. No, no child; that's what you have us for.

Tip of the day: Packing your beachbag

At the risk of sounding a little bit nutso, we definitely think there is an art to packing the ultimate beach bag. If you can pack it up with essentials and still keep it light, then you've got the knack.

Pidgen Orange: Hawaiian flavor for the pigeon lover

Who doesn't love pigeons- besides statues, New Yorkers and all the cars in the Styledash parking lot? They're curious, love homemade croutons, and taste like chicken.

Oh, who are we kidding? The only lovers of pigeons we know are Bert and our grandpa. No, our grandpa is not Ernie.

Laird Hamilton's Wonderwall surf collection

Posted May 21st 2008 at 9:28AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Clothing, Celebrities with Style

Surfing idol Laird Hamilton knows how to look good when he's riding a wave. He also looks pretty good on the beach. And he wants to make sure surfers all over are able to look good, too, while saving their pennies for new surf boards and Sex Wax.

Laird has come out with a line of surfing-inspired clothing that will be available at Steve & Barry's, and all pieces will sell for under $9.98. The slogan behind the clothing (and Laird's personal motto) is "We are all equal before a wave."

Tip of the day: The right way to buy and apply Sunscreen

Posted May 16th 2008 at 11:50AM by Boydie Beener

Filed under: Skin Care, Style Tip of the Day


Little did we know there was a correct way to apply sunscreen (or swunscweam as our daughter calls it). But don't worry, we did a little detective work and figured out the 5 W's for you.


The Who and the What. Of course we're talking sunscreen here. The first step is, obviously, you want to slather it on anytime you're in the sun. That's a given. Just a tiny bit of sun exposure each day can really add up overtime. But did you know that you've got to apply 30 minutes before going outside for the best results? Yes it's true. And again each time you are active (What!? People actually do stuff other than layout on the beach?). If you have a protective hat or clothing, even better.

Quicksilver boardshorts, nothing boring about them

Summertime, and the living is easy. Fish are jumping, and the waves are high. What?

Okay, maybe Porgy didn't surf and Gershwin was probably more concerned with lullabies and crap games than hanging ten, but the opening line to 'Summertime' always makes us crave the sun on our face and sand on our feet. We like to cover the parts in between with boardshorts.

Quicksilver has released their 2008 collection of boardshorts and like the lyrics above, they make us want to embrace the pending arrival of summer and the sand and the stuff.

Tender Toes Tout Sanuk

Posted Apr 23rd 2008 at 5:50PM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Shoes


Some people have tender heads. We have very soft, tender tootsies, so we're always searching for cute shoes that won't cut our feet to shreds.

We expect high heels and strappy sandals to be tough on feet, but the surprise villain in this story is flip flops. They can be the cruelest of footwear to delicate toes.

Vans: Skulls and paisley

Posted Mar 20th 2008 at 7:33PM by Whit Honea

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Vintage and Retro



I must have worn right through the soles of my old black and white checkered Vans. Holy crap was I the coolest kid in my entire mind. I had those sunglasses with the little piece of pleather in the corners for maximum shade as well as the ultimate in limited visibility. I had my Ramones concert shirt, despite never having seen anyone other than Rick Springfield and REO Speedwagon in person (not together, man, that would have been a ticket!). I was cool, maybe even reckless, and everyone knew it. They saw it on my feet.

So I suffered from disillusions of grandeur. It happens.

I think Vans is about to send a whole new generation on a similar path, one filled with cool buzzes and tasty waves. The new Paisley Skull Slip-On almost demands it. The shoes come in 3 colors according to Ripe, at least that's what I think it says.

Skulls and paisley, what's not to like?
