A hush fell over L*Space headquarters yesterday afternoon around 4pm…we knew there was a celebrity in our midst, and waited with bated breath to hear her give a stamp of approval to our 2013 L*Space Swim line. Called “the new Tavi” by many fashion insiders, CeCe Mesenbrink is many things: a bon vivant, the last word in good taste, and the daughter of our own beautiful and ultra-stylish PR Director, Heather.

To our immense relief, CeCe was absolutely delighted by our new designs – “mon Dieu!” she cried – “The colors! The cuts! It’s all exquisite, Monica!” Made faint from heaping so much praise, CeCe retired to a bed of L*Space bikinis and indulged the office paparazzi by striking a few poses (including her signature “tasty hangtags” shot). And then, just as quickly as she’d arrived, CeCe swept out, pausing only to air-kiss a few of her admirers on the way, leaving a faint scent of Chanel No.5 in her wake. Until next time, Queen C!
