I'm From Miami—These Are the Affordable Swimwear Pieces I Swear By
Summer has officially begun, which means it's the perfect time to shop for this year's best swimsuit styles. From vibrant, saturated shades to ultra-strappy silhouettes that are perfect to take from day to night, swimsuit trends in Miami are on another level. (Trust me—I would know.) As a Miami native, it's all I thought about before moving up to New York City. Swimsuit season, frankly, is all the time.
While the season's best new bikinis are already out and top dollar, you can get your hands on affordable bikinis and one-piece swimsuits that look designer but don't have the extra zeros. There's a great selection of cool swimsuits Miami girls swear, and they're under $150—a steal considering the price you could pay for fun, trendy two-piece separates nowadays. To prep for my upcoming summer travels, I hunted down some cheap swimsuits that tap into all of the biggest trends at an attainable price point.
While these swimsuits are very wallet-friendly, they also read as much more expensive than their price tags and will have you primed for a fashion-girl summer. With prices these great, I feel these will be out of stock in no time, so I recommend adding them to your cart before your favorite style ends up on the sellout list. Let the beach season begin.
