Hottest Bathing Suit Trends of the Summer

Summer is one of the best times of the year. We can wear shorts everywhere and even splurge on more than one fashionable pair of sandals at a time, guilt free. But the best thing about summer is being able to show off our new bathing suits. Here are some trends for the season:

Color Blocking

We are used to our triangle bikinis, but maybe it's time to invest in something different. Darker bands of color can be very slimming on the waist and hide most of our dreadful areas (muffin top anyone?). Mixing a light color with prints is just as chic.

Vintage Bikinis
Bringing back an older style of high-waisted bikinis, this vintage look is both feminine and slimming. The flattering look is making the rounds and it's here to stay. Although it can be the perfect choice for many body types, avoid a suit that has both a high waist and a high leg cut, which can transport you back to the 80s.

All White
Looking like a goddess has its perks and the right bathing suit can help you to achieve the look. All white bathing suits give out a flirty feel. Pair it with delicate gold accessories and you are ready for some fun in the sun.

Cutouts
If you are torn between a fashionable one piece and a small bikini, just go ahead and settle in the middle. Cut outs are a great mix of sexy and edgy. Try bold colors and you will never regret it.

Crochet 
The sexy, bohemian-chic crochet swimsuit options for summer scream fashion. The texture of a colorful crochet top and bottom will get you noticed right off the bat.

Mismatched Bikinis
This is the best time to mix and match some past season options together. Remember that blue top you bought last year? It will look great with the new white bottom you found on sale this season. Red bottoms and a printed top? This is the best time of the year to use your imagination.
