The Summer Of ‘O8 In Bikinis

The summer of 2008 is almost over (yes, it’s time to buy school clothes again), so let’s celebrate the few blissful weeks we have left with an homage to the best celebrity bikini bods to grace the beach since June. The days are long and the thongs are short - just the way summer life should be.

Put down that Dark Knight ticket down and get clicking instead. You’ll be able to enjoy Aaron Eckhart’s f*cked up face on DVD in just a few months, but summer - and those summer booties - only come around once a year.

In the pics below Naomi Campbell steals a kiss, Claire Danes snaps a pic, and Brooke Hogan poses - all while practically naked!
