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.
