Raica really should be wearing a life preserver being that close to the motor... for safety...

Raica Oliveira is fast becoming one of my favorite Brazilian models (which is saying something since there’s like 100 of them) and this giant photo shoot she did for the Heine Spring/Summer 2011 Swimwear Collection (yes, another bikini company) only helps reinforce her ranking. I think I also may have figured out why there’s somewhere around 500 bikini companies. Women must buy, what, 10 bathing suits a year? They buy one and then don’t like it and go out and buy a different one and repeat this cycle pretty much all summer long, right? Seriously that’s the only explanation I can come up with for why there are so many of these companies. The demand just must be monstrous in order to support all of these companies. Ladies, help me out here. (I know there’s got to be at least one of you reading this. And if so, Tweet me so we can discuss.)
