It’s true. Friends don’t let friends wear average bikinis. Why? Because friends (if they’re your true ones) want to make sure that YOU look good while you’re off at the lake or ocean getting that sun tan you have been wanting since winter. Fashion alone is all about showing off your personality and who you are. You can do both of those things by wearing a swimsuit, too. Throw on a cute cover-up and you’ll be sure to be making a fashion statement while you’re out walking along the shoreline with all of your friends. If you’re having a difficult time finding a cute swimsuit, do not fret because I have you covered with every swimsuit you’ll want to try on in 2022.
If you’re a Bachelor/Bachelorette fan like me, than you have heard of Joelle (Jojo) Fletcher. She was the lead on the 12th season of the Bachelorette and just recently got married to man that she chose on the finale, Jordan Rodgers! She just released a collaboration with CUPSHE, an online store filled with affordable and stylish beachwear with sized that range from XS – 4X. They love high quality clothing that is not only affordable, but that fits everyone. This collaboration sure is a special one as it’s CUPSHE first one with a celebrity. There are SO many cute pieces in this collection that range from all black, textured one-pieces and colored prints. This one below is absolute must have and I’m jealous that I do not have it in my closet. It’s all floral print one-piece with a ruffled plunge, perfect for that day at the pool surrounded by all of your close girlfriends! Get it at CUPSHE for only $36.99.
Eden Floral Ruffled Plunge One PieceNot a fan of one pieces? Then check out another part of JoJo’s collection with CUPSHE. This set is another perfect swimsuit for summer because it features a removable halter neck and an extra cheeky bottom, perfect for curves. Get it at CUPSHE for only $29.99.
Summer Salt is one of my all time favorite swimsuit online brands. There is SO much to choose from with pieces that fit absolutely everyone. Check out The Sidestroke one piece bathing suit. It comes in a variety of colors, from bright pink to jet black. This one is called the “Unicorn of Swimsuits” from the Today Show and has one many top honors including one from Elle Magazine for the #1 most wildly-flattering one-shoulder style suit. What I love about this suit is that is has full boob support and diagonal seaming with their signature fabric which keeps everything in place once you dip into the pool. Price is $95.00.
The SidestrokeWant a cover-up to match with your bathing suits? While purchasing The Sidestroke, add this shirtdress to your bag as well. It’s from the Summersalt x Jacey Duprie Collection and it includes light weight fabric and a self-tie belt, perfect for covering up swimsuit when you want to go out to lunch near the beach or just put it on when you’re lounging by the pool! Price is $95.00.
The Effortless Shirtdress Cover-UpIf you’re anything like me, then you love Amazon. I have Amazon Prime and use it all the time. Now I know, sometimes the shipments come in later due to labor shortages from the Covid-19 pandemic, but the shipping is still quicker than most online stores. I bought my last swimsuit from here and I absolutely love it. In fact, it’s very similar to the one below. If you don’t particularly love fancy swimsuits and just want something simple and sporty, then this one’s for you. It has a removable padded push-up bra, high waisted bikini bottoms and a scoop neck which is my favorite style on bathing suits. It also comes in a variety of colors which I love, although my prefer taste is a solid color like black. Get it at Amazon for only $31.99.
If you have read any of my other fashion posts, then you have probably come to learn that my favorite online store brand is Lulus. I love every item of clothing that they have here because they’re made with durable fabrics that make the piece of clothing last longer and most importantly, the items are cute and stylish. If there is a new trend in town, trust me, Lulus has it covered and will be coming out new pieces as soon as they can. Check out this periwinkle top that I found. Although you have to purchase the bottoms separately, it’s still affordable which I love. This stretchy ribbed knit shape is one of my favorite styles and it also has removable padding as well. It’s on sale right now for only $27.00.
Stay Salty Periwinkle Blue Ribbed Bikini TopHere are the bottoms: They are on sale for $21.75.
Albion Fit is an online store brand that I truly believe is a hole in the wall type of store. Not many people know about it, but there SO many cute pieces of clothing here including swimsuits. Most of their best sellers are one-pieces and I think that’s because they are slowly becoming more popular than two-pieces. Below is their one piece floral bikini which I absolutely love. It’s sporty, but feminine, has razor back zipper and tie-waste which just adds more to the already amazing look. This piece also comes in a few other different patterns, so if floral isn’t your thing, that’s okay. Choose another pattern and you will be good to go! Price is a little more expensive than other brands at $138.00.
