Water Lily by PilyQ

First up is the Water Lily swimsuit from PilyQ Swimwear. The curved long triangle top offers just the right amount of bust coverage, but it’s the bottom that really has us going gaga for this suit. The bottom’s beaded belt features hues reminiscent of a speckled sandy beach, offering a subtle yet chic break in a sea of white. Plus PilyQ literally has you covered, as they offer this gorgeous bottom in both teeny and full back coverage.

EcoLux White by Vitamin A

But for those who prefer something that’s clean, classic and will create minimal tan lines, the EcoLux White bikini from Vitamin A may be more your style. The molded ruched bandeau top is a Vitamin A best-seller and looks awesome paired up with the cheeky-cut Brazilian bottom. Plus this suit is made with Vitamin A’s sustainable EcoLux fabric, so you’ll be looking good and doing something good in this eco-friendly swimsuit.

White Cascade by Luli Fama

Next we have a style for all the gals who can’t get enough of beautiful beach-glam style–the White Cascade bikini from Luli Fama! While the white crochet overlay lends a definite bohemian element to this suit, the pop of gold keeps it ultra-glam. With the push-up top construction and cinched Brazilian-back bottom, this suit is the ultimate in va-va-voom.

Pom Pom Dress by PilyQ

Finally, we can’t forget the cover-ups! The color white goes hand-in-hand with lace and crochet, so the Pom Pom Dress from PilyQ is a no-brainer. The allover textured crochet fabric features a beautiful pattern and makes for a sexy sheer silhouette, while the simple slip-on design makes it super easy to wear.

Without a doubt, these sexy white resortwear styles guarantee a white hot summer.

Carnival

The Carnival swimsuit from Lolli Swim is definitely one of our #1 looks for summer. Seriously, why don’t we see more crop tops at the beach? Not only is off-the-shoulder always sexy, you also don’t have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions in this little number. We’re also really into that eye-catching print, which looks just as great on top as it does on the bottom.

Cheeky Citron

We’re having a hard time deciding what’s best about Lolli Swim’s Cheeky Citron bikini. We’re certainly digging that big ol’ bow, but we also love the sexy, strappy open back that keeps this swimsuit from looking too sweet. Best of all though, has to be the color combo. Citron yellow and turquoise? Sign. Us. Up.

XOXO

Anyone else getting a mermaid vibe from the pretty ruffled bottom of the XOXO bikini? Thankfully, this look doesn’t veer too far into Ariel territory, since the nude-hued top is accented with hearts instead of seashells. Of course, the perfect balance of sweet and sexy in this look could help you land your very own prince charming… or at least that hunky lifeguard!

Have your cake and eat it too with the new styles from Lolli Swim!

Jellies
Melissa Shoes is putting the jellies you wore as a kid to shame. Their line of miniature mary-janes is perfect for keeping little feet safe in the water, plus they’re hypoallergenic and will dry off in no time. Our favorite is definitely the cream-colored flats with the pretty black bow, which would look just as cute with her fanciest little dress as it would with her swimsuit. Sigh, if only our shoes pulled that kind of double-duty.

Flip-Flops
Every girl, big or small, needs to have a go-to pair of flip-flops. Ipanema has a whole range of styles that are decked out with fun little details, from candy-coated hearts to pretty little butterflies. The best part? These kicks are easy on your wallet, so you can pick up a few pairs–because even little fashonistas love to have choices.

Fringe
L*SPACE Swimwear has taken mommy-and-me to a whole new level by revamping some of their coolest looks to suit the little ones. Seriously, how cute is the girls’ Arrows bikini set!? Totally age-appropriate yet still incredibly stylish, any girl would love to romp around the beach in these.

Bows
We love it when little girls want to break out of the norm, and the Sprinkles bikini by Lolli Swim is the perfect example of how girlish doesn’t have to be so, well, girly. The neon yellow hue is daring enough for the tomboys, and the tie-dye print gives the oversized bows a funky vibe.

We can’t even handle how freaking cute these girls’ swimwear styles are. How about you!?

1. Tricked Out
It was love at first sight when we first laid eyes on the sunset-sherbet hues of the Tricked Out bikini, but it’s the pretty little details that really stole or hearts. We adore how the coral laser-cut pattern creates a lace-like effect over the lemon yellow base, and the scalloped lace trim adds just the right amount of girlish flair.

2. It’s Electric
What do you get when you combine two of the season’s hottest hues, coral and nude? This stunningly sexy little lace number from Beach Bunny Swimwear! The nude-hued lace overlay atop of the coral base almost creates a bronzy metallic look, sure to radiate against any skin tone under the sun.

3. Enchanted Bloom
A little punky, a little sexy and incredibly fierce, the Enchanted Bloom bikini is definitely a daring look for 2014. Floral swimsuits can often look a little too cutesy and girly, but the black lace and neon pops make this piece downright mischievous. Of course, the low-rise and slightly skimpy cut of the bottom certainly adds to the lingerie feel as well, making this lace bikini simply too hot to handle.

1. Go-To Maxi Dresses
Maxi dresses are pretty much synonymous with summertime style, but they’re also perfect for fall and spring. Maxis come in an endless variety of styles–halter, strapless, short-sleeved, long-sleeved, you name it! Style your summertime maxi with a leather jacket or comfy cardigan, depending on the dress and look you’re going for. Add a pair of boots and you’re ready to hit the streets. Style tip: Add a long slip under sheer maxi dress styles for no-show coverage.

2. Crop Tops and Rashguards
Both crop tops and rashguards were all the rage this summer, and we saw so many different styles that catered to girly-girls, boho-babes and surfer girls alike. In addition to bikini bottoms, certain styles of crop tops and rashguards look awesome paired with high-waist pants, as well as skirts in the mini, midi and maxi variety, so feel free to rock them straight through fall.

3. Bustiers and Bra Tops
Let’s face it–bustiers and bra tops are essentially bras that are acceptable to wear poolside or at the beach. Since bandeau tops have started to pop up in everyday fashion, you can totally rock your bustiers and bra tops throughout the year as well! Like bandeaus, you can wear them under a flowy cotton tank for a casual daytime look, under a crochet or mesh crop top at that upcoming concert or even with a button-down and blazer at work. The style possibilities are endless!

4. One-Piece Swimsuits
Like bodysuits, structured one-pieces create clean lines, a smoother shape and can provide amazing control and support. Furthermore, certain styles also look great with jeans, skirts and work pants! Stick to strapless or bustier-style one-pieces and leave those with plunging necklines and risqué cuts for the beach.

5. Wedges and Flats
Summer flats and wedges are pretty much essential for summertime, but depending on the style and the weather, they can also be fantastic options for spring and autumn! Jelly flats are great with jeans for day, while a pair of peep-toe wedges is perfect for more formal engagements. But both styles can be dressed up or dressed down!

Jean + Jason Wu Flats by Melissa Shoes

With a little bit of creativity, you can easily turn your favorite summer styles into year-round staples. Happy styling!

1. La Plage by Vitamin A
Forget tan lines this summer and get yourself a bandeau bikini. The deceptively simple La Plage swimsuit by Vitamin A forgoes those pesky shoulder straps and instead features corset details on the top and bottom pieces for a little lingerie-inspired sexiness. The pale sandy shade provides the perfect contrast to a perfectly bronzed bod, not to mention this light nude hue will help keep you cooler in the sun.

2. Black Hearts by Lolli Swim
If you’re looking for something on the sweet side, look no further than the Black Hearts bikini by Lolli Swim. This nude suit has a slightly pinkish tint, creating a blush effect that looks oh-so pretty on the lightest and darkest of skin tones. Plus, this swimsuit is as cute coming as it is going–seriously, we can’t resist those cheeky little hearts on the bust and bum that will definitely bring out your coquettish side.

3. Teenie Tiny by Maaji Swimwear
It’s not often a swimsuit can combine three major trends and not look like a hot mess, but the Teenie Tiny swimsuit by Maaji Swimwear highlights straps, nudes and pastels in a totally swoon-worthy way. This deeper shade of tan flatters absolutely everyone, while the light yellow, peach, and blue shades add an element of fun to this two-piece. With a dash of sex appeal from the peek-a-boo straps, you’ve got the recipe for summer perfection.

Mykonos, Greece
Known for its pristine white buildings and crystal clear turquoise waters, the Greek island of Mykonos is the perfect spot for those of you who like the sand by day and the clubs by night. Besides the party scene, make sure you take advantage of all that beautiful water has to offer by jet-skiing, snorkeling or parasailing around, and definitely take time to explore some cultural spots. The ruins at Delos are a must-see, and the sunset at Castle Panigirakis might just be the 8th wonder of the world.

Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah
The Grand Canyon is one of the US’s most popular vacation spots, but we’re thinking Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah might be even better. Centuries of erosion from frost and water have shaped the sunset-hued rock into “hoodoos,” great cylindrical spires that defy description. Perfect for the outdoorsy type, the hiking, camping, stargazing and horseback riding opportunities are some of the best you’ll find in the US, and you definitely have go on a nighttime walk around the canyon rim when there’s a full moon out. America the beautiful, this definitely is.

Pamukkale, Turkey
There are tons of amazing vacation spots in Turkey, but Pamukkale has to be one of the most unique due to its hot springs. No, that isn’t snow–that fluffy white stuff is actually comprised of calcium deposits, which cups milky-blue waters that look positively unearthly. When you’re done soaking in the world’s coolest day spa in your favorite swimsuit, make sure you hike through Pamukkale National Park, and then take a trip by hot air balloon to get a bird’s eye view of the mesmerizing landscape.

Let the summer vacation planning begin!

Last season’s best-selling Maya Sandal from Ipanema Flip-Flops is back this season is brand new neutral hues. We’re loving the Maya Nude Sandals as well as the brown-gold color-way, but there are a number of other versatile styles to choose from too.

For something subtle, check out the Laurel flip-flop in black and gold, which is so comfortable that it feels like you’re walking on air. But for something that’s a bit more dramatic, the Bossa wedge flip-flop is both gorgeous and ultra-glam.

Conquer sandal season in style and let those tootsies breathe!

5. Sun Castles by MAAJI
Last but not least in our summer cover-up roundup is the Sun Castles ensemble from MAAJI. Ok, so technically it’s a combination of 2 cover-up pieces, but they look way too cute paired up together to not discuss! The yellow cropped tank top has beautiful laser-cut detailing and will definitely show off those abs of steel. Pair it up with a fun pair of printed shorts and you’ve got the cutest beach-to-street look!

Sun Castles Top & Bottom

These cover-ups are so cute you’ll never want to take them off… Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

1. Bang For Your Buck
One of the most obvious reasons why reversible swimwear is so popular is because it offers customers a great bang for their buck. Think about it–one reversible top gives you two different styles for the price of one. And when you pair it with a reversible bottom? Well, you do the math!

2. Variety Is The Spice Of Life
Although the trend has been around for quite a while now, more and more designers seem to be taking a liking to it. While many reversible styles often feature one printed side and one solid side in a complementary color, many designers are starting to spice it up a bit. Not only are the prints becoming more elaborate, but we’re noticing a greater attention to detail. For example, some of our favorite reversible tops this season feature fringe or ruffle detailing that works regardless of which side you decide to rock. Genius!

3. Packing Made Easy
Finally, because reversible swimwear gives you the option to create different looks, they help make packing for a beach getaway easy as 1, 2, 3. Not only can you come up with multiple looks using the reversible pieces themselves, but you can also mix and match between your non-reversible styles. By packing fewer swimsuits, you can save room for your other “essentials,” like that extra pair of shoes!
