Designer Monica Wise has created a line of cutting edge swim wear that can be mixed and matched to express the wearer's inner surfer girl. Wise's line for Spring Summer of 2012 does just that and it was created in a riot of colors, proving that you don't have to wear black to be sophisticated on the beach.

One fun note; the models walked the runway with sand on their behinds - both cool and funny.
