Spring is my favorite season to shop for swimwear! The prints are more colorful and vibrant compared to the classic solids you see during the summer season.

Your Essential Spring Break Swimwear Guide
A Breath of Fresh Air

White is always so refreshing after the darker shades of winter! Celebrate the new season with this feminine and flirty bikini from Tularosa. Created with lined eyelet fabric (so you won’t have any unintended sheerness after a dip), this cute two-piece is ideal for those who enjoy the airy styles of spring. Wear this white bikini during your bachelorette vacation or spring break trip!
The Better Than Naked Bikini
Hunza G is the it-girl swimwear brand of the moment. This luxury label from London is famous for its signature crinkle stretch fabric and one-size-fits-most sizing (making gifting and buying a breeze!). Worn by celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, we love the soft textured feeling of this swimwear, it makes it feel more like fashion-forward ready-to-wear than a barely there bikini. Speaking of barely there, I’m OBSESSED with the Metallic Cocoa shade of the Xandra Bikini set from Hunza G. This rich shade will melt in with newly suntanned skin and subtly sparkle in the sun, making you look like a nude goddess rising from the ocean. Wear it with a red lip and black shades while poolside for effortless glamour.
Swimwear for Mermaids

Ready to wear ‘seashells by the seashore’? Childhood tongue-twisters aside, we can’t stop talking about this colorful bikini. Made by popular swimwear brand, BEACH RIOT, this playful print is perfect for the girl who loved to play ‘mermaids’ in the pool growing up. This bikini isn’t just frivolous fun, it’s also thoughtfully designed with a light underwire to help support your bust. Wear this seashell bikini with colorful sunglasses, sandals, and your favorite beach hat for an easy boho look you can wear by the pool or on the beach.
The Swimsuit That’s Guaranteed To Sell Out
Agua Bendita has long been one of my favorite brands. The colors, quality, and style of this Colombian brand are difficult to match. Every season, we fall in deep-deep love with their newest collection, and this spring, we simply must have their Aya Bikini Top and matching high-waisted Claus Bikini Bottoms. The Claus Bikini Bottom features two peek-a-boo cutouts on the hip with fun double ties to give this swimsuit exciting visual movement. The Aya Bikini Top is exquisite with the same colorful pattern as the bikini bottoms but embellished with lux embroidery and sequins for a beautiful couture feel. Wear this bright bikini on your trip to Mexico this spring for a beautifully curated vacation look.
Fashion-Forward Florals
Against all odds, Agua Bendita managed to make florals for Spring revolutionary (Who doesn’t love The Devil Wears Prada?). The delicate cherry blossoms print and lavender background of the Tula one-piece are sharply contrasted with exciting red accents on the bustline, neckline, back, and sides for a pulse-racing take on this standard spring pattern. As I said before, Agua Bendita, is one of my favorite swimwear brands for their luxurious designs and we can’t get over the subtle but oh-so-satisfying lavender beading on the v-neck of this maximalist swimsuit. Wear this bold swimsuit with a feminine edge during your spring travels and prepare for a constant stream of compliments from onlookers!
Gen-Z Approved Swimwear
This under-the-radar swimwear brand has quickly gained a Gen-Z following for its sustainable and colorful styles. Dippin’ Daisy’s is a brand you need to add to your swimwear collection if you like to be in the know and start the trends with your vacation picks. One of my favorites from their latest collection is this floral peach and light pink patterned Zen Top. With this knotted bust line top, this swimwear pairs perfectly with jean shorts for that effortless cool California girl style.

For The Girl Who Loves Labels
Over the quiet luxury trend that overwhelmed social media in 2023? Wear your love of major fashion houses proudly with this classic Greca Border One-Piece Swimsuit from Versace. This Italian-made classic black swimsuit pops with the instantly recognizable graphic print on the straps. Go for full glamour during your luxurious holidays and pair this designer swimsuit with gold jewelry and earrings or wear it with a sheer black beach coverup for a chic timeless look.
Decadent and Daring One-Pieces

One-pieces have traditionally been the more modest swimwear silhouette, but this plunging black DG Halter One-Piece Swimsuit from Dolce and Gabbana has completely challenged that line of thinking. Worn by many celebrities like the queen of the music charts, Bebe Rexha, this sexy black one-piece swimsuit is not for the meek. I love the flash of gold at the waist with the signature DG logo hardware and the high-cut leg design. Wear this Italian-made designer one-piece during your romantic getaways to relight that spark between you and your significant other or wear it during a girls’ trip for vacation pics that are sure to go viral.
Queen of Poolside Patterns

Maybe you’re devoted to designers but you’re not looking for a luxury swimsuit with just a logo or brand name on it. I totally get it. If you want a swimsuit that combines top-level attention to detail with beautiful design, you must have Camilla’s Printed Underwire One-Piece Swimsuit in Glaze and Graze. A whimsical and illustrative take on traditional blue and white china patterns, this fantastic swimsuit looks gorgeous at poolside parties. Camilla is one of Australia’s leading fashion designers and their designs are made for the customer who values sophistication without the stuffiness.
Influencer-Approved Swimwear

Kylie Jenner’s bestie, Anastasia Karanikolau, has created a sexy swimwear capsule collection with the popular swimwear brand, Cupshe. My favorite design from this bestselling line is without a doubt, the Women’s X STASSIE Oasis Shiny Plunge Cutout Monokini Swimsuit. This revealing one-piece is for the confident maximalist as it combines a plunging neckline and backless design with an eye-catching animal print. This revealing swimsuit is perfect for the aspiring influencer planning a wild weekend away.
Swimsuits With Sparkle

Looking for a bathing suit with a little bling? Channel the sparkly Y2K aesthetic with this Petal Pusher Temptress Tummy Control One-Piece Swimsuit from Miraclesuit. This sophisticated and flattering one-piece is a subdued version of the shiny sequined styles of the mid-2000s. Featuring a tummy-control panel and non-removable cups, this one-piece is well-structured for those looking for more substantial construction in their swimsuit (sorry triangle bikinis!). For those planning family trips this spring, consider buying this black one-piece! You’ll feel confident with its curve-hugging design and can rest assured that you won’t experience any unwanted wardrobe malfunctions.
Old Hollywood Starlet Style Swimwear

Are you plus-size and obsessed with all things vintage? You’ll simply adore this Old Hollywood style two-piece swimsuit from one of social media’s favorite brands, Unique Vintage. Available in sizes 1X-4X, this retro style swimsuit is full-coverage, with slimming ruching throughout the hips with a flattering high-waisted cut. Inspired by swimsuits of the 1950s, this Unique Vintage Monroe Bikini is perfect for those looking to channel retro glamour and the Americana aesthetic during their spring vacations.

You’re the girl who makes everything look easy and effortless. For those sophisticated shoppers who prefer a more streamlined approach to swimwear, we recommend this Logo Swimsuit from Swedish swimwear brand, Toteme. This bold yet understated logo swimsuit is made with comfortable four-way stretch fabric. The timeless silhouette of this simple one-piece includes a scoop-back design and high-cut legs which look flattering on the majority of body types. Show your mastery of the quiet luxury aesthetic by wearing this chic swimsuit with a slicked back ponytail, black sunglasses, and a gold tennis bracelet at your resort’s poolside cabanas.
A Swimwear Staple: The Triangle Bikini

I’m a believer that every woman needs to have a simple bikini in their wardrobe. Triangle bikinis are timeless and easy, not to mention, they take up so little space in your already cramped suitcase. If you’re looking to get the perfect tan, you must consider this Eres Mouna Triangle Bikini Top and Eres Malou Bikini Bottoms. This classic side tie bikini can be easily undone so you can make sure you don’t get any undesired strap marks as soak up the sun on your beach towel. For fans of fashion icons, Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner’s vacation looks, this triangle bikini is a necessity!
Luxurious & Elegant

Eres is another swimwear brand that deserves a second mention on this list. I’m head over heels in love with their glamorous Cassiopée Bandeau Swimsuit. Classic and elegant, this Italian-made swimsuit looks perfectly poised on the beach or on the yacht of some handsome European (we can all dream!). This black strapless swimsuit is timeless and will last season after season, not just for your spring holiday!
