In anticipation of summer and looking forward to actually having places to flaunt my swimwear ensembles this year, I started stockpiling bikinis like they were going out of style. Let's just say my excitement got the better of me because I probably have more bikini sets than I have beach days to wear them now that we're fully in the midst of swimsuit season. While I was busy refreshing my bikini selection, I completely overlooked my one-pieces, and I've left a hole in my summer wardrobe that I'm intent on filling.
Seeing as I'm shifting my attention to all the cutest one-pieces on the market, I figured I'd take you along on my virtual shopping spree because these suits deserve to be added to your lineup, too. My search took me all over the internet, but some of the coolest styles were, quite naturally, found at some of my favorite retailers. From a retro-printed one that is just too sweet to pass up to a classic black style that easily doubles as a bodysuit to a slime-green pick that shows you aren't afraid to go really bold, ahead, see and shop the suits that are getting me and my swim collection up-to-date.
Why be boring?
The famous Christopher Esber dress comes as a swimsuit now, so of course, it's on my wish list.
This charming ruffled number features hand-embroidery that's crafted by a collective of female artisans in Medellín, Colombia, and I think that's pretty cool.
I can't even lie. I have a soft spot for this shade of green.
I would also fully wear this as a top with jeans.
Because a littel shimmer goes a long way.
If you are a fan of Totême's smocked dresses, prepare to fall in love with the brand's swimsuit iteration.
Reformation always knows. (Adding this to the list of one-pieces that double as bodysuits.)
Straight out of the '60s in the best way.
If you think this $24 Amazon swimsuit doesn't magically look good on everyone, you obviously haven't been seeing the right TikToks.
I never need an excuse to shout out how well Vitamin A's suits fit, but I'll surely take this opportunity to do so.
She's fun. She's flirty. She's cool.
Simply stunning.
Nope, our obsession with bubblegum pink hasn't gone anywhere.
Simple but far from boring.
H&M did not have to go off like that.
While the brand's bikinis are certainly covetable, don't miss the cool one-pieces at Frankies.
And I rest my case on swimsuits as bodysuits.
It's the statement buckle for me.
It wouldn't be summer 2021 without a little checkerboard.
All in the details.
Warning: Compliments may occur.
This neckline, though.
Worth it for the funky tan lines.
Not your basic one-piece.
Because leopard print is timeless.
