GIRLY
4. Aubin & Wills Blythborough Frilled Bikini ($115)
The perfect mix of sporty stripes and feminine ruffles, this red and white bikini is beyond darling. Working on your tan? Hide the straps to make it a bandeau. Running around the pool? Tie on the halter! Either way, it's an adorable pick.
5. Shay Todd Eyelet Hankerchief Bikini ($255, 323.655.3760)
If you like the crocheted pieces and country-chic style of Chanel's spring collection, you'll adore this eyelet suit from swimwear designer Shay Todd. The top's handkerchief hem is an unexpected touch that's sure to get attention anywhere you go.

If you've been searching for a natty nautical suit to keep you looking shipshape this summer, your quest ends here. This convertible halter-top bikini is a sure bet, plus, when worn with red flip-flops, it's perfect for all your Fourth of July shenanigans.
CHIC
7. Old Navy Ruffled Swimsuit ($29.50) in Cocoa Powder
Take the plunge into a one-piece with this low-cut, ruffled number from Old Navy. Though it comes in several colors—like black and baby blue—this taupe iteration won top marks around the office. The unfussy color is on-trend and provides a great contrast to the suit's ruffled neckline and plunging back!

9. Delia's Twist Bandeau ($29.50) and
Foldover Hipster ($29.50) in Black
What could be more chic than a little black bikini? Everyone should have one like this affordable option from Delia's: we love the bandeau top and ruched bottoms—it's a total classic! Plus, if it fits like a glove, you can always pick it up in either a solid color (in blue or violet,) or the polka-dot print version (in blue, green, violet, and red).
