Body heat

The perfect accessory for sun-kissed skin is a swimsuit in this season's hottest hue--gold! Designers are sizzling up summer in tawny two-pieces for the svelte physique, ruffled one-pieces fit for a queen, and even metallic suits that feel like a second skin. Whether you are taking a cool dip in the pool or tanning at the beach, you'll be so hot you could give the sun a run for its money!
