Gant by Michael Bastian Swim Trunk


Michael Bastian has been praised for updating the "American Classic" with his Gant line and these swim trunks are a perfect example.

Gant by Michael Bastian nylon drawstring swim trunk with white and green striped tipping at sides. 11" rise. 3" inseam. The olive is available at Barney's, but I'm a bigger fan of the red pair at Bloomingdale's. $125.

Husband Lust : Jason Hoppy


Bethenny who? After watching the Real Housewives of New York for five hours on a flight to New York, the only thing I remember is the steamy Jason Hoppy soaping up in the shower before the couple went to have a baby. I will say I was a little disappointed he doesn't always have the scruff, but scruff or no scruff Jason is defnitely husband material.

Model Lust : Zeb Ringle


There isn't much info on American model Zeb Ringle [talk about an awesome name]. This Model Lust isn't as well known as previous topics, but it seems he just had his big break being photographed by Steven Klein for Arena Hommes magazine. The Lust List looks forward to seeing more of him though.

Model Lust : Cristiano Ronaldo


Viva Portugal! Cristiano Ronaldo is a Portuguese footballer [he plays forward for La Liga and is captain of the Portuguese National team] who is the most expensive player in football history. We can see where all that money goes; tanning, DSquared, Gucci, vacations around the world. I would imagine he isn't buying any underwear, I'm sure he has a lifetime supply after being the face of Armani's underwear line and following in the football footsteps of David Beckham.

Ronaldo may even be considered a Lust Icon. He is frequently spotted carrying a man bag and rocking just short enough swim trunks. The Lust List loves a man who takes risks and appreciates luxury labels.

Model Lust : Andres & Jon in GQ Style


Have you seen the new GQ Style? Its got double the trouble in a fashion spread with Model Lust BFF's Jon Kortajarena and Andres Velencoso.  This isn't the first time they've been featured together, and hopefully it won't be the last.

DSquared Destroyed Denim Shorts


Another shorts stand out for the summer from our boys Dean and Dan at DSquared. The shorter the shorts the better in my opinion, within reason of course. Take a stand for individuality and rock this tailored version of denim shorts vs. the flood of cut-off's you will see all summer long. Take another step in personal identity and stand for distressed denim [it seems everything is raw or rinse these days].

DSquared Denim shorts in dark wash. Five pocket styling. Logo-embossed silver tone rivets. Leather logo patch and red loop detail at back waist. Allover distressing and abrasions. Creasing at thighs. Sanding at front and rear. White paint splatter detail at single side. Contrast stitching in orange and yellow. Button fly with red logo tab and stitching at placket. Made in Italy. $385.

Sundek White Mid Length Board Shorts


Let's keep the swim shorts features afloat shall we?

Sundek Shorts debuted in California in 1958 especially for surfers. The rainbow motif, added in 1972, remains a feature of all Sundek shorts today. Originally championed by professional surfers including Kelly Slater and Ken Bradshaw, Sundek shorts have since become popular as stylish beachwear for surfers and sunbathers alike.

Now, these white mid length board shorts aren't as cool as the exclusive camoflauge ones they did for Ron Herman, but still good. It seems the camoflauge edition has become an urban myth, I saw them once in store and haven't been able to find any images on line for you Lust List followers. $120.
