After endless months of torturous winter weather, the ’70 and ’80 degree temps as of late are our sweet reward. Whether you plan on tanning on a friend’s rooftop, the park or the beach, some hot swimwear is definitely a must. Here, we rounded up some options.
SPORTY
If you aren’t into cutesy bikinis or frills, Topshop offers some nice alternatives. And not just for the normcore lovers. For summer, the brand has rolled out racks of simple cut one and two-piece styles in a bold array of colors. We’re a fan of this red racerback that has a slightly Baywatch-feel without being too exposing. When you want some coverage, this simple white tank and tiled printed shorts are comfy enough to not get in the way of any poolside, park or beach games.

BOHEMIAN
Anna Kosturova‘s crochet, laid-back looks are perfect for channeling Vanessa Hudgens or Nicole Richie this summer. The whole line is comprised of boho styles that give off that whole “I woke up like this” vibe. Layer one of their tunics and shorts over your bikini and you’ll look dressed up enough to head somewhere nice for dinner. Accessorize with a stack of gold bangles and you’re good to go.

GIRLIE
Girlie-girls, Lulu*s has you covered. From floral print to hot pink and flirty cut-outs, the site has a ton of feminine summer styles to choose from. All eyes will be on you in this pink paisley bikini. If you need some coverage, slip this graphic print tunic on, which is long enough that you don’t need to wear shorts with it.
