Sure spring just barely started, but now that I've gotten a taste of warm weather, the fashion editor in me can't help but look ahead to the next shopping season. Of course, I'm talking about summer. Sets, separates, sarongs, sandals, beach bags, bikinis, one-pieces, and more are endlessly not only on my mind, but flooding all my favorite sites' new arrivals sections, so there's truly no escaping this sartorial itch that must be scratched.
So scratch I did—in the name of research, of course. And as a result, below you'll find the best of the best when it comes for beachwear to use for the next six-or-so months. From investment pieces by way of Missoni and Gucci to the H&M and J.Crew steals that look ten times their price tags, simply keep scrolling to see and shop my edit. After all, it's never too early to start building your next-season's wardrobe.
