I'm Not Kidding: These 25 Surprisingly Affordable Swimsuits Could Pass for Designer

I've booked my big summer vacation and I'll be honest, after that hefty credit card charge I'm not feeling inclined to splurge on the swimwear I'll be taking. I do, however, still want to get my hands on a few chic-looking swimsuits that look luxurious but won't cost over the $120 mark. So this week, I did what I do best, and went on a market mission to find some affordable one-pieces and bikinis that look super stylish. Luckily, I found some well-priced gems in a whole host of styles that I kid you not could almost pass for designer. Some lean into more minimalist silhouettes, while others feature elevated details and luxe-looking fabrics.
Below, I'm sharing the fruits of my shopping labor with you all, and highlighting 25 styles I think are worthy of your wallet. From satin bikinis to asymmetric one-pieces, keep scrolling for my favorite affordable swimwear that will unquestionably get you excited for your upcoming travel plans.
