It’s already practically summertime here in Cali, a sign that bikini shopping season has descended upon us. But even if you live in more frigid climates where spring showers are the norm right now, it’s still not too early to get ready for beach cruising, late-night pool parties and any other reason to preen around half-naked. LA designers Scarlett Chorvat and Alison Renner have created a covetable collection of fresh, edgy bikinis that utilize inventive, lightweight fabrics, playful prints and vivid colors. The Shimmi Collection pieces evoke a sexy, cutting-edge spirit in that effortless unassuming sort of way, but is nonetheless crazy stylish. Just another reason to stop dawdling and shed that winter flab ‘cause we all know that backfat ain’t cute, girl.
