Cali talent Mary Grace's swimwear and beach lifestyle line is all about fit and functionality. Introducing her debut range of reversible swim styles, Mary Grace Swim is an ode to the designer's love of surfing, mixed with bits of inspiration from the cultures and textiles she encountered while traveling to places like Fiji, Mexico and Indonesia.

True to her laid-back roots, Grace designs for the traveler and dreamer who aims to look effortlessly styled, no matter if she's out with her friends or on a surfboard in the Pacific. "Whether it's the Venice girl rocking cutoff shorts and a bikini top, or the Coachella gypsy who plans her entire outfit around her bathing suit, swimwear is essential to SoCal style," she explains.

The line, described by the designer as "versatile, spicy and vibrant," offers a variety of reversible options in both prints and solids, ranging from $70 to $95 a piece. Her spring/summer 2013 collection, "Acapulco Sunrise," has something for everyone, from staples like a triangle string bikini top to a bandeau with a twist in standout colors like turquoise, fuchsia and coral. Nab pieces for that summer getaway you've been planning for here, here and here.
