This issue of Spotlight shines the light on the gorgeous Henna bikini by Cia Maritima. This two-piece from Cia Maritima's 2010 collection combines whimsical and stylish features at the right measure to deliver a swimsuit that is at the same time sexy and playful.

The Spotlight this week brings you the enchanting Hippie Chic bikini from designer swimwear Cia Maritima. The playful colors and pattern of this two-piece allude to fun days at sunny tropical settings and so, it was a perfect addition to this year's Sports Illustrated - Swimsuit Edition.

We're happy to announce two fabulous new additions to our Cia Maritima collection: the Hippie Chic and Romantic bikinis featured on the Sports Illustrated - 2010 Swimsuit Edition!

Now that we had time to sift through the hundreds of pictures from the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2010 edition, we've selected our favorite bikinis/shots that didn't make it into the hard copy issue. A number of designers had multiple swimsuits and our favorite picks are based on the designers' ability to wow us in two areas: interesting or original print, and beautiful cut. Drum rolls, please!

The 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition hit the stands today bringing model Brooklyn Decker on the cover along with 30 other beauties in the issue.

This edition was shot in 6 different countries, in exotic location such as the Maldives, the Chilean's Atacama Desert and India. A total of 190 photos grace the pages of this issue - with plenty more on SI's website. Here are our picks for favorite suits from the hard copy issue:

This week's spotlight is on one of Cia Maritima's masterpieces from their 2010 collection: a bandeau bikini, appropriately called 'Athens'. Inspired by the beauty of Greco-Roman goddesses, this sultry two-piece is a truly classic beauty, leveraging Greek motifs to raise the level of sophistication on this already highly elegant swimsuit.

A regular at Sports Illustrated - Swimsuit Editions and high fashion magazines, Cia Maritima is coveted by a wide range of celebrities and stylists alike. They provide the quality, design and stylish edge sought after by those in-the-know of what's hot in the swimwear industry.
