Back in late summer, to kick off her Cruise line, Kikidoll launched 21 Hawaiian-printed string bikinis from her new 2011 collection inside sea-going bottles. Ergo, Bikini in a Bottle.
Using ancient tidal current maps, these beachy emmissaries were sent on their way into the big blue Pacific. Landfall was expected anywhere from 60 to 90 days–um, so right about now.
Assuming the giant squid can’t unseal the corks, and that mergirls don’t wear strings (fins in the way!) , Kikidoll expects some, if not all, of these to find their way onto beaches globally.
So button up your overcoats if you are north, pull on a tank if you are south, and get out there on your local beach for a stroll. Take an empty trash bag with you and pick up the flotsam and jetsam you see along your search; pocket an empty shell or two. Breathe in deep that mystical combination of seasalt and ozone.
And find a bikini–it’s yours, if you do!
Send us back photos and we will add them to the corkboard.
Happy hunting.
Here are a few sneak peek preview shots from recent Sports Illustrated Swim 2011 shoots on faraway island locations.
Palm trees, volcanic rock, tropical settings–looking very paradisical; perfect for beachgirls in teeny bikinis.
Kikidoll could not help but notice her own coral halter bikini as worn here by Julie Henderson lounging on a palm tree trunk.
Posing behind two lucky starfish is a sea nymph known only as Rookie #5. Wearing Kikidoll’s seafoam aqua coral print string bikini (bottoms, that is!) adorned with sea pearls, crystals and angleskin coral branches, SI snapped this mergirl today.
Watch this space for future peeks–Sports Illustrated Swim issue is on stands in February 2011. Kikidoll is in line!

Back at the beach during Miami Swim Week, the sand was hot and the nights hotter. Records showed it was the hottest days ever registered in Miami and talk of heat indices well over 100 degrees was routine. Never before did those vitamin laced waters go down so quickly as models fainted and make-up melted under the glare of the relentless sun.
Nights were not much cooler and even though cafes and ocean spot venues were throbbing, everyone sought out a fan or a cooling AC blast. Sushi and blue martinis were tucked into like camp food, and maybe it was the heat, but no one felt a thing, until, of course, the morning after when the rush for a Starbies was legion.
With the cameras clicking and the film crews rolling designers threw pool parties and trotted their new lines for 2011 in the sand–in stillettoes. And these were not shoes made for walking. Not even a sliver of those ubiquitous Loubie red soles could be seen as the models sank in up to their gladiator straps.
The nightlife music in Miami is everywhere and the Latin undertone so engaging, like a heart beat. With the in-your-face combo of food, sun, heat and urban rhythyms, Miami wears a wahine out.
