You don’t have to be afraid of swimsuit season any longer. Get the best fit with Maaji swimsuits for your body type.

Most women hear the word swimsuit and try to run for cover.  The idea of showing off all of the imperfections of your body can make even the most beautiful, confident woman squirm. However, any “body” can be flattered. With a little research, it is possible to find a swimsuit that will help you to promote the parts of your body that you are proud of, and maybe disguise the ones you would rather not be seen.

While it can sometimes seem a little more costly investing in a good designer suit like a Maaji swimsuit that fits your body type, it is a worthwhile investment that will help your confidence soar at the swimming pool or while on the beach. Maaji is one of the most reasonably priced brands in designer swimwear. Women are getting a high end designer style for a very affordable price, which is one of the many reasons this is why the brand is so popular.  Women know a great deal and a quality product when see it.

One of the biggest mistakes women seem to make is choosing a swimsuit without taking into consideration their own body type and this is the most vital step to ensuring that confidence. The Maaji swimsuit line has many different styles and colors available for many different body types.  Their new swimwear line for 2013 is also full of the most up to date fashions, as well as unique colors and pattern combinations that make each swimsuit a work of art. Models and women all over the globe are picking up these great fashions to accent their body types.

If you find that you are dealing with the apple shaped body type, then a one piece swimsuit will do you the best service. Carrying most of the weight in the torso, an apple shaped person would want to choose a great designer line such as the Maaji swimsuit line and their Aquasuit.  It’s important to wear solid colors or medium sized patterns to help slim your midsection.  The Gallant Mermaid is also a great choice because of its plunging neckline.  A deep V neck line helps to draw the attention up, towards the neck and face making for a most elegant and sophisticated swimsuit look.

Some women who are pear shaped think they should immediately run to the swim-skirts or wear sarongs all day, but they have the wrong idea.  These fashion choices actually highlight this issue.  If you have a flat tummy, a great halter and boy short combo can help draw attention away from wider hips and thighs. If you prefer to stick with a one piece, choose one with high cut leg openings to give the appearance of longer legs. If you are petite, slender, or just want some extra curves, then choosing a Maaji swimsuit such as Peachy Summer, Raspberry Delight, or Blossom Melody will give you that extra oomph that every woman loves to have and …In a good way.  Anything adding fluff to your hip or bust will give the illusion of a curvier silhouette.

The great thing about a Maaji swimsuit is that when you purchase a two piece swimsuit you have the ability to buy the sizes you need in the top and the bottom, even if they differ. This allows much more flexibility for everyone, with any body type, or combinations of.  Purchasing a swimsuit that fits you is the best way to ensure confidence when showing it off!

Maaji’s 2013 styles are ready for you at Azura.

Maaji launched their first swimwear collection in 2002 and has consistently produced stunning styles year after year.  The 2013 collection is now available here at Azura.  After so many years, does Maaji still have that magical touch that has earned them the distinction of being unique in the swimwear industry?

Yes.  Yes they do.

Maaji has not slowed down one single bit and their 2013 styles are among their strongest collection to date.  Take French Flamenco, for example.  This hot Latin-inspired number will have you dancing with delight as you revel in the sumptuous feel of nylon and spandex.  This fabric blend hugs the body, which is great considering you can choose between full or cheeky bottoms with little fear of the swimsuit riding up or peeling down at an inopportune moment.  The ruffle on the top accentuates the bust and pays homage to the ruffled dressed worn by flamenco dancers.  Maaji is known for their eclectic use of mixing patterns and French Flamenco strikes the perfect balance of whimsy and sophistication with a mix of checkers, triangles and dots.

For the girl that wants a two-piece but prefers more modest coverage, Maaji offers Blossom Melody.  Perfect for that girl-next-door look, Blossom Melody is a demure suit with a flowing top and a choice of full or basic bottoms.  Beautiful, subtle flowers in pink and blue evoke the calm and peace of nature while a pop of color and sass are provided by the dark checkered bands over the bust and on the bottom.  With Blossom Melody, Maaji proves they can offer sensuously demure suits right alongside their sexiest pieces.

Speaking of sexy pieces, you simply have to check out the fun, funky, retro Cherry Reve! This pink and white stunner comes with a tie-back bandeau top, which is perfect to tan those shoulders without swimsuit lines.  The patterned dark pink bottoms come in American Full and for those that dare to bare, a very cheeky full Brazilian Chi Chi.

These are just three of the many 2013 Maaji styles available now at Azura and to celebrate the new releases, we are offering 30% off our 2012 Maaji collection.  If you missed out on our 2012 best seller, Tsunami Sublime, now is the time to add this suit to your collection for just $85.75!  That is 30% off the regular $122.50 price.  It is easy to see why Tsunami Sublime was a hot seller in 2012.  From the scalloped detailing on the bandeau to top to the reversible laser detailed bottoms, no aspect of making this swimsuit exceptional was overlooked.

Maaji has always been a force to be reckoned with in the world of designer swimwear and the 2013 collection shows they are far from finished in offering the colorful, unique styles they are known and loved for.  Don’t delay in adding Maaji to your wardrobe collection.  Check out our 2013 styles today and don’t forget to get a great deal on the 2012 suits on sale.   We have trained customer service agents ready to answer your questions and assist you with your order.

Introducing New Kid on the Block: Maaji Swimwear

At Azura, we are all about elegance with a dash of dare, summers, big blue skies and adventures. Hence it is no doubt that we are always searching for interesting swimwear labels to add to our stable of designers. This year, we are pleased to include Maaji swimwear in our collection of exquisite designer swimwear.

Although Maaji swimwear is new to Azura, it’s no stranger to the world of high-end designer swimwear. Maaji was conceived in 2002 in Colombia. It’s dedicated to designing and producing quality swimwear pieces for women and girls around the world. Maaji describes itself as eclectic and unconventional. Many of its designs uses high technology to ensure that both fit and comfort are in balance with style and fashion.

Maaji swimwear is all about its vibrant colors, unique shapes and designs. In 2010, Azura has brought in a range of Maaji swimwear that is colorful and will make you stand out of the crowd.

One of my personal favorites is the “Ruffled Juniperus” by Maaji. This piece is inspired by planet earth. It is extremely flirty with ruffles around the top of the bandeau to flatter even the smallest of busts. The low-rise bottom is trimmed with a wide patterned waistband that provides comfort and allows the bottom to move with the body. For those who are more adventurous, the bottom is available in minimal back coverage too.

Another design that is on my wish list is the “Grafitti Exotiae” by Maaji. It is a very unique cut away piece that is synonymous with the 2010 swimwear trend. This colorful and vibrant piece will make you look girly, feminine yet sexy at the same time. The shoulder straps are designed to be slightly wider and runched for that extra comfort and style. The deep V fronts with its colorful graffiti pattern on the cups help to enhance the cleavage. For those who have a great waist and back, this is definitely the piece de jour this summer. The sides and back are cut away for maximum sex appeal and will definitely make heads turn.

If you are a lover of all things nature, bright and colorful, the Maaji Swimwear range is definitely one for you. Hurry and order your favorite Maaji today.

Girls Night of Fun: Do a Sexy Swimwear Photo Shoot

There’s a reason models look like they are having so much fun during swimwear photo shoots.  They are!  Great bikinis, great locations, great poses…what’s not to love?  Well, you don’t have to be a model to get in on the excitement.  Grab your best gal pals and create your own sexy photo shoot.

A quick word of caution, however.  We live in a very digital age where information and pictures can spread online like wildfire.  Be very careful who you show or send the pictures to and think twice before posting them on Facebook or any other social network.  This is an activity to be done only with the friends you know and trust.  The goal is to have fun, not have your future boss checking out your pictures online or your ex-boyfriend texting them to all his friends.

To replicate a swimwear photo shoot, you need three things (besides, of course, a camera!) The first is sexy designer swimwear.  It’s easy to get in the mood to pose when wearing something that makes you look and feel like you belong on the cover of Cosmopolitan.  Complete your look with a tussled mane and artfully applied makeup.  Consider taking it up a notch by visiting a day-spa for professional makeup and hairstyling.

The next thing you need is a location.  Shooting in public places like a shopping mall is clearly not a good idea.  Choose a location that will not draw unnecessary crowds.  A bedroom, a private pool or a quiet section of beach will suffice.

Third, you need to pose.  Let you go and really get into it.  After all, you are among friends!  Don’t just sit with your hands in your lap staring self consciously into the camera.  If you are not sure how to pose, check out some swimwear ads before hand or look at the pictures on this website.  Notice how the ladies are sexy and confident without being lewd or shy.  Stare down that camera!  Work your best angles.  Smile, pout, and toss your hair.

There are many reasons to do a fun, sexy photo shoot.  Girls night out (in!), stagettes, and birthday parties, to name a few.  Be sure to do a group photo to wind up your day-as-a-model fun.

You don’t need a professional photographer to make you look great when wearing designer swimwear from Azura.  These specialized suits with their globally sourced embellishments, beautiful colors, and stretchable fabrics turn any woman from the girl-next-door to sexy swimwear model.  So choose your suit, grab your camera, and go have some fun!
