Mara Hoffman Swim 2012

Not surprisingly, Mara Hoffman has wooed us once more with another covetable collection of swimwear and beachy frocks. Although we must wait until next year to get our hands on the tribal-printed pieces, the easy to replicate double-braids, spotted on the runway, will hold us over just fine. (So we think.) You can do it yourself by parting your hair down the middle, creating a french braid on each side until they hit the base of the neck, and then switching to two fishtail braids. It’s an impressive and romantic do – perfect for summer!
