Beach days are just around the corner; geez, that was fast! It seems like only yesterday we were ringing in the new year, so we feel your pain if you just don’t know where to start with building up your swimwear collection. Let’s kick off by chatting about the must-haves you need to add to your shopping cart. Bring on the heat; here are the swimwear trends to watch for this summer.
String Bikini Sets
All we’re hearing is “minimal tan lines” and we’re not mad about it. Brought back into the spotlight by the Kardashians (of course), string bikinis this summer come in a heap of fun colours, prints and barely-there cuts. After a hack that’ll make your legs look longer? According to Dani Michelle (Kourtney Kadashian’s stylist), it’s as simple as tying your bikini bottom strings a little higher, raising them at the hip.
Swimwear Cover-ups
All hail sarongs, the queen of summer cover-ups. What better way is there to spice up your poolside ’fit than with a sheer skirt? Super breathable and lightweight in fabric, this warm-weather essential comes in funky prints and colours that’ll keep you cool while working to add a little extra coverage. Plus, you can also find some styles to match your swimsuit for an easy coordinating look. If a sarong isn’t your vibe, opt for a pair of shorts or breezy wide-leg pants. You’ve got more room to play here; pick from linen, lightweight denim, cotton or even an open crochet knit, the world is pretty much your oyster when it comes to fabrics and textures.
It was all yellow
Yes, most colours are in, but yellow on the other hand? It’s THE colour of the season. And we’re not talking just any shade of yellow, we’re talking dreamy butter yellow. Similar to the massive impact bright green had on our wardrobes last summer, soft pastel yellow will be doing the same. From bikinis to dresses, summer accessories to sandals, you’ll find most of your favourite resort wear styles available in this sorbet shade.
