We called last year’s color winner Turquoise.

Now we are going on record today, first day of a new year of a new decade–1 January 2010– declaring that Pink is the freshest, slamming-est, next best-est thing to arrive on the heels of a Blue Moon.

And we don’t mean Rock Star Pink or maybe-baby–pink, that is. As much as we adore her, and those powdery, angel-skin tones of baby, pale, pastel and blush, what we are forecasting is much more Pepto, more acid, more candy, more GaGa.

Shades of hot hot hot and shocking.  Not neon–that’s too retro for this hottie, non-oughtie decade. We mean clear and hard pinks–like your great-aunt’s cheek rouge, a slash of screaming-Mimi.

Conjure a Sweet Tart or a Strawberry Fields Forever. Or just a big iced lolly in Raspberry Ice.

Looking over the New Year’s offerings on the beaches, Pink was already peeking out from the cabana.

Rihanna kicked off the trend earlier this holiday in Barbados in her pretty frilled number.

Now here comes LiLo, demoiselle terrible, lolling about on a boat in St Barths, looking as delicious as a guava in her pink bikini.

And only yesterday, in SoBe, Pink was so-being it there on the beaches.

Stacy Keibler proved the best dance was the last dance. In Miami last night she showed off her Dancing with the Stars physique in just the kind of pink we are yammering about.

Hayden Panetierre, newly single in this new year, and though covered by a white dress when zapped by the papps, had the pink string thing going on.

Earlier in the month, Miley was seen in candy floss pink with rainbow straps.

One thing’s for sure so far this year–Pink made a strong showing at the start on the beaches and in the Caribbean.

Let’s hope we see more of it in the months to come.

Let’s face it–for most of you, the weather outside is frightful, and you’re bundled up in furry, earthy tones like hibernating bears.

For 2010, Pink is the new delight!

For hot pink bikinis 

After the muss of the holidays, Kikidoll has spent the end of 2009 pouring over photos of all of the beautiful people in the world sporting a bikini on a beach, toasting up from winter’s frosty chill.

No disrespect to the luscious Rihanna seen this past weekend in an eye-popping hot pink frilled number. She looked absolutely delicious like candy from Dylan’s.

And no dissing another glamazon nearby holidaying in Barbados, Sienna Miller, who has been papped in not one but two fetching boy short/strapless bandeaux numbers with navy print, or navy denim and gingham themes. Adorable.

But the overriding choix du jour appears to be a girl’s old classic standby–the basic black bikini, or what Kikidoll lovingly has labelled for her swimwear collections as the LBB–’little black bikini’.  Like an icon from a Fellini film, as elegant as Sophia in Sicily or Mamie in the fountain, the LBB is worn by the chicest, trimmest and most svelte.

Take Demi here. Flawless and timeless. And with Ashton!

Or, stroll with insouciance like the uber cool Chloe Sevigny, on break from Big Love. Big heart to this Big winning black bikini.

Look fresh as a starlet like Kristen Cavallari of The Hills, proving black is back as the new black on the beach.

Just as the ubiquitous black turtleneck is a staple in every girl’s cache, the LBB should be in her beach arsenal, especially in these post-indulgent holiday days (too many cookies)!  Kikidoll knows how flattering black spandex can be as it flattens the bulges and trims the dimply bits by its sleight-of-hand tricksy depth of color, or lack therein! An added plus is that it ‘goes’ with everything!

So forget those day glo neons and traffic stopping brights at the beach–for year end 2009, and for the start of those well-meaning new year resolutions in 2010 it’s all about trimming back.

Go for black, like Kikidoll– here in her LBB Black Coral bikini.
