Vote for Jessica Rafalowski for Maxim Hot 100

Jessica Rafalowski is absolutely one of the hottest beauties in the world, and one of the nicest people we've ever come across. A former Miss Florida, we've shot her many times, including in the very sexy fashion shows from Beach Bunny Swimwear (she was their 2010 Model Search Winner.) Bikini.com is working on a special video profile on Jessica -- but in the meantime, she just let us know that she is in the running for the Maxim Hot 100 list for 2012. She's definitely got our vote, and as a friend of the "family", hopefully your vote as well. Jessica is up against some very famous beauties, but we really think she deserves the Maxim crown. You can vote for Jessica here (she's in between Jessica Biel and Juliane Hough, a spot we wouldn't mind being in either.)

Beach Bunny Swimwear 2011 with The Kardashians

Q: What could be hotter than the hottest bikinis on the hottest models at the hottest event in town?

A: We'll give you three hints: Kim, Kourtney and Khloe.

Yes, the foxy Kardashian sisters were front and center at the Beach Bunny Swimwear runway show, promoting some of the sexy suits they designed for the "Kardashians for Beach Bunny" line. You might also know Beach Bunny Swimwear CEO and Designer Angela Chittenden as one of our supremely popular Bikini.com Supermodels, but we're so happy that Angie has gone on to use her creative and business skills to create an super-successful and feminine swimwear line that is a favorite of lots of celebrity hotties including Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, Ashley Tisdale, Jessica Simpson, Salma Hayek, Sienna Miller and Eva Longoria Parker, who declared them "the sexiest line out there". (We have to agree!)

For 2011, Angie created collections themed as "Old Hollywood", "Safari Glam" and "Sailor Chic", and drew her inspiration from upscale lingerie and her travels around the world. The fashion forward 2011 collection featured daring cuts with ruched backing and a variety of curve-enhancing tops that were boudoir inspired. Snakeskin prints, metallics, lace, cutouts and crystal detailing showed up in sexy black and vibrant shades including purple and turquoise.

Beautiful teen star Selena Gomez was in the front row, right next to Kim Kardashian, creating a paparazzi frenzy. Also making her Beach Bunny Swimwear debut was adorable Jessica Rafalowski, Beach Bunny's first annual Model Search Winner.

Congrats to Angela Chittenden and Beach Bunny Swimwear for getting the biggest buzz of the week. We're sure this is just the beginning of a major Beach Bunny empire!
