There is no better way to embrace warm weather than by celebrating it wearing a sleeveless top, dress or a cute bathing suit. Need inspiration? Look no further - the following delectable picks will be all the incentive you need to tone and bare your beautiful arms this season!

Bold and bright
If you are looking for the definitive statement piece for your wardrobe, this Diane von Furstenberg Hermia top in Giant Butterfly Explosion might be just the thing. This vibrant silk jersey nature print can be dressed up or down depending on where you're going, and the banded waistline allows you to change the length and blousiness of the top. The Hermia top is $255 at www.dvf.com.

Simply green
This tee shirt is offered in colors with names like pure, soul, shea butter and sencha. While it doesn't come in the actual color green, green it is. Under the Canopy's mission is to make a positive impact on the future of the planet, by creating products that utilize the Earth's resources in an ecofriendly, sustainable manner.

Sparkly sailor
Nautical fashions are always a good bet for warm weather, and I especially like this updated twist with white and gold stripes. It keeps a classic look right in step with the times.

This sweet and sparkly gold metallic-striped tank is made of rayon and spandex, and costs just $22 at www.Newport-News.com. (Get them while they last!)

Strawberry goodness
Doesn't this sweet halter dress conjure all the wonderful feelings associated with wearing a flirty summer dress?

Available in seven breezy florals, I'm partial to the Strawberry Fields print shown here. Called the Nomadic Traders Spring Dress, the retail price is $78. To order, email customercontact@nomadictraders.com.

The long story
All of the tops from Shade Clothing are super soft and extra long, making them perfect for women with long torsos or those of us who aren't fond of the idea of baring a little belly. Originally created to be fashionable yet modest, Shade offers great tanks, cap sleeves, baby doll shirts, maternity shirts and more in a multitide of solid hues.

Like many of their clothes, this cute soft pink Strap Camisole (made of cotton/spandex) has a comfortably snug fit for extra support. At under $12 each, you can afford to buy these camis in a rainbow of colors! Get yours at www.shadeclothing.com.

Clean and simple
Nobody does the simple white tank better than Jockey. Their Comfies Cotton Tank Top is a cotton/nylon blend with no side seams for a comfortable fit, plus thicker straps provide better coverage. Best of all, it's so affordable you'll want to scoop up all six colors. The Comfies Cotton Tank Top is $18 at www.jockey.com.

Floral enticement
With lush floral embellishments, this swimsuit is so sweet and pretty, you'll exude a quiet confidence without even trying.

Surfer Malia Jones graced the cover of Surfing Magazine recently in a Le Doux suit, and this mother-daughter run company's chic mix of Brazilian and California lifestyle is becoming a hot ticket in the swimwear world. The Le Doux "Flora" suit is available in yellow, white, blue and purple for $205. For more information, please click to www.ledouxswimwear.com.

Fable dress for summer Sweet & romantic
This lovely cotton voile dress with gauze lining is fairytale pretty, hence its name, the "Fable Dress." Tonal embroidery covers the bodice in a pretty satin stitch. Soft georgette ruffles frame asymmetrical tiers of contrasting pin tucks, pleats and flounces and embroidery. Out of the hem peeps a beautiful cotton crochet border.
