It’s crazy to think that in the midst of icy temperatures, white Christmases and permanently cold toes — despite layers and layers of thermal socks — the fashion world is introducing its newest resort 2011 lines. But to freezing fashionistas everywhere, the end of December only means one thing: hello flip-flops and barely-there bikinis!
Designers such as Mara Hoffman, Diane von Furstenberg, Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent, Elizabeth and James and Rosa Cha have started to debut their beach bags, cover-ups, wedge sandals, sunglasses and bikinis — all necessities that you’ll be wearing or toting in St. Bart’s or Cabo San Lucas in the spring. Check out all of these resort trends coming soon in stores or on fashion websites, such as Shopbop and Net-A-Porter.
