Trendy
Blackbough, Jaded London, Kitteny
Shop these sites for STATEMENT bikinis. If funky patterns, and unique cuts are your thing, go check these sites out.
Jaded London
DISCLAIMER, this is completely my fault for not paying attention, but their sizing is UK not US. So for example a US size small is a UK size 8-10. I will insert a size guide below. I am a size 4 US and bought a size 8. It was still a little small I probably should have got a size 10.
The hard wear on the Vacación top and bottoms is great quality. I was concerned that it might turn my skin green after getting wet, but it did not! The cheetah print set held it’s color after being in chlorine and through the washer several times.
My Top Picks
Kitteny
Sexy, flirty, and fun…
I bought this bikini last year, and I still love it. I typically wear a medium for tops but I had to size up for this brand to a large. When you order you may want to get two sizes so you can try them both on. bottoms fit true to size!
Definitely on the pricier side, great to splurge on if you are going on vacation. I bought mine for a bachelorette party!
My Top Picks
I am so obsessed with these. I might get the red pair and wear them with the top I already have. Is that cute, or is that Cute?
Blackbough
It’s all in the details with Blackbough. AMAZING quality and so COMFORTABLE. This is actually Kaitlyn’s bikini, and I am buying one for myself immediately. Seriously so comfortable, it doesn’t cut or rub into your skin at all. Overall just a very well constructed bikini.
My Top Picks
Basics
Aerie, H&M, Cotton On
Shop these sites for your staple bikinis.
Aerie
I am pretty sure we have all been rocking Aerie bikinis for the better part of a decade. They are reliable and fairly prices, you can’t really go wrong.
Great high waisted and string bikinis. It’s always a good idea to check their clearance or go to their outlets (if you live close to one). I got this striped bikini below for $20 at an outlet!
My Top Picks
In general Aerie is a great place to shop family friendly, or more modest options.
H&M
I am wearing this top upside down in the photo above, always a fun way to spice things up. It’s like having two bikinis in one!
The bottoms they sell now are just slightly different than what I bought two years ago, but they have the same effect. SO flattering and you can not beat the price.
My Top Picks
Cotton On
Yes I loved this bikini so much I bought two of the same one (different textures). If you have never shopped Cotton On before, check out their clothing too. They just know what’s up.
True to size, I bought mediums and they fit perfect!
Cotton On
Tankinis and Shorts
I am completely in love with these trends. Perfect for any type of water sport, or if you’re planning to do a lot of actual swimming. I also think, similar to one pieces, you can incorporate some of these pieces into your outfit for the day, eliminating the need for a full cover up.

Jewelry
Gold jewelry pairs well with black bikinis, and who doesn’t have a little black bikini?
So invest in some bracelets, earrings and necklaces to wear to your next pool party. You have to be careful what you buy. I would not recommend wearing really expensive jewelry into a pool or the ocean for that matter, but you don’t want to turn green either. Gold or silver plated jewelry should give you the price and look you want, without the green side effects of cheap pieces.
Target and Amazon have great plated jewelry for affordable prices. I will link a few options in the up coming styling photos.
Pendant Necklaces
I found this one at a GoodWill, so go check you local thrift if you’re struggling to find something online!
Large pendant necklaces make a statement without you having to put in much effort.

Bold Earrings
Again if they are going to fall out don’t wear them in the water. That being said a big bold earring on the beach always hits.
This is the Vibe
Gold Bangles
A fat gold bangle allll summer long, but for sure with your bikinis.
