This summer, I really tried to up my bikini game. Firstly, I got rid of all of the ones that I never wore. We all have those pieces of clothing that sit in our closet for years and years, thinking we'll wear them one day. Well, first step: get rid of the ones you don't like anymore. Second step, find bikini's you love to replace them. So, where to look for cute bikinis? Well, I've got a few tips and tricks to help you find some!
1. Lord and Taylor and Bloomingdales - these two department stores have really great selections of bikinis. Every summer they do a really big summer sale and this is where I try to get at least a few bikinis. From L Space to Vitamin A, they have a great selection. Plus, they are both having their summer sales right now!
2. Triangl - really great quality suits for a very reasonable price. Every year they come out with a new set of cute suits. Some of them are pretty trendy, but others are really great basic bikinis.
3. Kiini - I finally invested in a Kiini bikini this year and I do love it. It is so cute and incredibly well made. I know it is expensive, but it is incredibly flattering on my body and something I really love. With that said, I was able to find one on sale at ShopBop by using the ShopStyleCollective website. I highly recommend this website because it collects the product and pricing from tons of different places all in one platform, ensuring that you get the best deal!
4. L Space - some of my holy grail bikinis are from L Space. I LOVE them and they truly do last for a very long time. I specifically love their signature Estella bikini bottoms, which come in tons of colors, and their classic Haley bikini top. I also am usually able to find L Space on sale regardless of the time of year so if you know what style and color you want I highly recommend searching around online a bit.
5. ASOS and Forever 21 - I have raved about these two places before, but if you are looking to add some inexpensive throw around bikinis to your closet, these are my go to's. At Forever 21 I have mainly found one pieces rather than bikinis, but I do really love them. As for ASOS, I usually order a bunch online and keep between 2-4 of the 8 I buy, which is pretty good considering online swimwear!
6. Dippin’ Daisy’s Swimwear - I found this brand at a local boutique in my town and I am totally obsessed with them! I have three suits from them so far and they are SUCH good quality and really flattering. I especially love their high rise bottoms (as pictured in the image at the top of the post) because they are not to high that they make my hips look big - they sit more just right above the waist.
Regardless of what you wear this bikini season, make sure you are comfortable and happy in what you decide to strut down the beach in - everyone should feel fabulous in the sun :)
Xoxo,
