Tori Praver photographed on Maui. More photos of all the models can be found at sportsillustrated.cnn.com/features/2008_swimsuit/ as if you didn’t know.

Those ogling Sports Illustrated’s latest swimsuit issue are probably eyeing more than the suits, but are probably not paying much attention to the jewelry or the sites, including the beach at Sheraton Maui.

Designers tapped for the photo shoot were Michael Spirito for Exhibitionist and Lana Fertelmeister of Lana Jewelry.

This is the second year Lana’s designs are being featured in the magazine. My interviews with the designer appeared at:
