Spring might’ve just started, but you can never go wrong with stocking up on a few new bathing suits ahead of summer. I love my basic black string bikini as much as the next girl, but buying something new sparks some serious joy. And we’ll take all the happy moments we can get these days.
Shopping for a new bikini or one-piece can seem daunting, I know, but you’re basically guaranteed to find your new favorite swimsuit from one of these sites. If you’re trying to pick up a wear-everywhere option that won’t break the bank, consider shopping on ASOS or PrettyLittleThing. If you’d rather splurge on something special, why not browse Net-A-Porter or Revolve’s wide selections? There are also a ton of smaller brands to consider that your friends may not already be shopping, from L*Space to Kitty and Vibe to Summersalt and more.
Let’s dive in, shall we? Keep reading to scope out the best sites for swimwear on the web. We’ll keep updating this story as we test more and more swimsuits!
