Swimwear trend #10 for 2010 is bold beach bags. Beach bags aren't exactly news, but the trendiest bags at the beach in 2010 will be big and bold. They'll make a statement as well as serve a practical function because we all need lots of stuff at the beach, and what could be better than a big, bold beach bag?

Usually petites will look more in proportion when they avoid oversized bags and carry medium-sized bags, but the beach bag is an exception because practicality trumps proportion for a day at the beach or poolside.
