Has the right bikini made it over the hill yet?

Are you ever going to put a cap on it?  Swimsuit spending is getting out of control?  It's getting boring too, trying to find the right one.  Don't yawn, pretty please, don't.  This is really important to me.  Even if it involves snow and a bikini again.
