Well, it beats spending time on a decades-long waiting list for an iconic Kelly, doesn't it?

New York blogger Karyn Bosnak drew our attention to a new feature on the Hermes website which shows you how to make your own Hermes bag, just like the real thing. The only downside? You have to make it out of paper... a fun craft project, perhaps, but not likely to withstand the first rainy day of summer.

If you'd like to make something a little more substantial (but only a little more substantial), why not try your hand at making a bikini?

Good news for those looking for a little more coverage on the beach, The Daily Telegraph says that big-bottomed bikinis are in. Clare Coulson reports that when the larger bottomed bikinis made their appearance on runways a few years back they didn't catch on with fashion editors who thought they were a bit too close to the infamous granny panties seen in the Bridget Jones movies. But now that Miucca Prada showed high-waisted bikini bottoms on the runway the retro-styled suits might truly get their day in the sun. The flesh-covering suits are selling like mad over in England. The suit shown here, the Haiti Bikini from Sage Sarong sells for £69 and is just one of several high-waisted options. But where are they in the U.S.? I've seen plenty of tankinis and boy short bikinis but the ultra-high waisted bikinis don't seem to be making a big impact here yet. Has anyone seen these in stores yet?
