The Kardashian sisters like to flaunt around (and thus get their photos plastered everywhere) in bikini bathing suits, which I would as well if I shared their bodies!  I may share a name with Kim, but my body is far from perfect like hers.

Above Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian are both seen wearing designer bikinis, with Khloe wearing a Vix London Halter Bikini Top and matching Vix London Tie peacock print bottom.  Both are available from The Orchid Boutique.  Earlier this week we reported Kim wearing a Vix Tortoise Via Tube Bikini.

Vix has been a hot brand name of swimwear for women celebrities.  In fact the same swimsuit that Khloe is wearing is featured in the newly released Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue* for 2010.

Other women’s bathing suits hot brand names among celebrities include Aqua Bendita Swimwear, Badgley Mischka, Betsey Johnson Swim, Despi, Lady Lux, Libelula, Maaji Swimwear, OndadeMar Swimwear, OndadeMar Vitage, PHAX Swimwear, Sabz Luxury, Sabz Swimwear and True Religion. And The Orchid Boutique carries all of these designer name brands of bathing suits for women.

If you are not a current subscriber of Sports Illustrated and would like to receive just the Swimsuit Issue, the Sports Illustrated Annual Swimsuit Issue 2010 (with beauty Brooklyn Decker on the cover) is available by itself from Amazon.com.

Kim Kardashian graced the cover of OK! Weekly* last month in a hot pink bikini and offering an exclusive interview on how she lost 15 pounds and kept it off.  The article includes her exact meal plan (yes, she still eat carbs) plus her easy at-home workout plan.

Kim Kardashian wore a Vix Tortoise Bia Tube Bikini in Hot Pink, which is available from Singer22.com for $155.

Steal Kim’s style for less with the Roxy Daytripper Hot Pink String Bikini for only $52.99 from Overstock.com. With a description like this how could you resist?

• Roxy Daytripper string bikini will help you stand out and have more fun in the sun
• Two-piece swimwear available in a solid hot pink color option
• Swimsuit will make you look hotter than the weather

With the awful snowstorms we’ve been having here in the Midwest and another one slotted for this week, it’s hard for me to personally get in the mood to shop for bikinis.  Actually if I was in the mood to shop for swimwear, I’d probably opt for a one-piece swimsuit, as having kids has left one too many stretch marks on this tummy of mine. My kids think we need an above ground swimming pool in our backyard.  I said we need to table the idea until the snow is gone.

Vanessa Minillo was spotted recently frolicking at the British Virgin Islands (source) wearing a Maya New Signature Cut Bikini in Napali Coral, available from Singer22.com, $185.

I’m jealous of Vanessa’s “fun in the sun” as I look at the huge mounds of snow in my yard after a blizzard kept us snowed in for days over Christmas!

Lindsay Lohan was spotted in yet another Vix bikini while vacationing in Hawaii. This time LiLo wore a Vix Ripple Studded Tie Side Bikini in White, available from Singer22.com, $168.

Lindsay Lohan was spotted in Hawaii yesterday (April 29th, 2009) wearing a ViX Swimwear Amalfi Bikini, available from Nordstrom.com (top and bottom sold separately, $78 each).

I just dread swimsuit weather ahead! Now if I had body like the model above (prefer hers over LiLo’s pasty white skinny skin), I’d run around naked at the beach!

Britney Spears was seen last weekend frolicking the beaches of Costa Rica in a couple of Ed Hardy swimsuits.  Shown above, respectively, Brit is wearing “Love Kills Slowly” bikini (available from BoutiqueToYou.com, $140) and “Cross All Over” bikini (available from BoutiqueToYou.com, $200). Order now for shipment next month!

Britney did visit the Ed Hardy corporate office last month to discuss possibly starting her own clothing line, and she came away with some free suits. Maybe these were it?

I am not looking forward to swimsuit season.  Maybe if I had Fergie’s body, I wouldn’t be so embarrassed about baring my abs.  Seen above, Fergie is sporting a Maya Calypso Signature Cut Bikini with Blue Triangle Swimsuit Top, available from Singer22.com, $165. InTouch Magazine reported that Fergie had 10 Maya swimsuits flown to her when her luggage was lost while on vacation!
