Fast Fashion
Fast fashion might be fleeting but it is perfect for some staple summer items and for some fun, colorful and creative additions to your wardrobe. Just because it’s less expensive doesn’t mean you should sleep on it.
1) X REVOLVE Romy Bikini Top $32
REVOLVE is the perfect place for girls who want to be wearing the latest fashions but also keep the cost to a minimum. This floral cross-body wrap suit is the perfect summer stand-out. Though it might leave you with a few odd tan lines, it is an amazing eye-catcher.

PacSun always has some great summer staples. You can wear this to the beach with friends, parents, or even to a darty. It’s a very comfortable and breathable material, and it’s a product that will last you a few seasons without falling apart in the wash.
3) Allover Print Halter Triangle Bikini Swimsuit With Beach Skirt $14
Shein is the holy grail of fast fashion, especially when it comes to bathing suits. It is the perfect place to buy some trendy stuff for cheap because you never know when those micro trends are going to pop in and out of style within a week. This bathing suit really speaks to that; the color combos and little tie skirt really feed into the Euphoria vibes that are popular right now. But come next summer, who knows if they will still be on-trend. This bathing suit is perfect for this summer, keeping you on-trend, and looking great on a budget.
4) Halter Triangle Tie Side Bikini Swimsuit $11
Shein always has some staple items on the cheaper side, and this bathing suit is no exception. This tie, triangle bikini can be worn in so many different ways, comes in many fun colors and never goes out of style. It is perfect for the summer, just make sure to tie it tight enough so it doesn’t fall off!!
High Fashion
High fashion is not just something that costs more, but it’s something that lasts longer. Something high fashion can be worn for years to come, or it can be trendy, but there are aspects about it that speak volumes compared to a knockoff.
1) Jetset Plunge One-Piece Swimsuit $162
This Niemen Marcus one-piece suit is timeless. Its sleek black plunging neckline and squared back are the perfect pair for such a high-end suit. If you are willing to spend the extra cash, this is a suit you could wear from now until you’re 60; it’s never going out of style.
2) Women Trikini One-piece Swimsuit Plumes $280
This high-end suit speaks to the vibes of the summer. The vibrant spiraling colors are very similar to the trends we see going on all over the market right now. This is the perfect one-piece suit for the season if you’re willing to ball out a little more. The cross-body design is very flattering and again, is very on-trend for this summer.
3) OFF-WHITE Self-tie bikini $280
Off-White is a well-known brand worn by many celebrities and influencers today. Though this bathing suit does not look like much, it is a sign of status, much like other products from the Off-White brand. The bathing suit is simple and easy to wear. It is a clean and sleek staple that you could definitely keep in your closet for years to come.
4) Sparkling jersey bikini with Double G
Last but certainly not least, Gucci. From least to most expensive, this takes the cake for breaking the bank. This sparking, fashionable and respectable bathing suit is the epitome of high fashion. It’s expensive but clean and is glamorous but not over the top. It’s perfect. It would be an honor to wear a bathing suit like this for a relaxing soak in the pool, but something tells us the owner of an almost $700 bathing suit is not going to do a lot of swimming in it.
Whether you are willing to break the bank, or just want to stay on budget this year we hope that these bathing suits gave you some good inspiration for your upcoming spring break trip!
