Bikini
From: New York, United States

It's the final day of 2010 and, while it may not be the weather for sunbathing or lazing around the pool in the UK, it's a good time to think about the summer holidays. So what better time to chat to Nigel Diamond and Olivier Olivier of New York two piece Bikini?
