LOOK: Cute and Colorful Swimsuit Ideas

1. Bucket Hat + Gingham Bikini

Turn up the heat in a dainty gingham bikini as you brave the ocean waves. You can even match this print with a solid-colored bucket hat to ramp up the fun hues!

2. Headwrap + Triangle Bikini + Minimalist Jewelry

Need a cute swimsuit to wear for the ‘gram? This smocked triangle bikini has you covered! Finish off your look with a headwrap and some minimalist jewelry for a day of ocean dipping.

3. Beaded Jewelry + Underwire Bikini

Is it avocado, matcha, or pistachio? Whatever you choose to name it, we can’t deny that this shade of green has been a cult favorite recently. It comes to no surprise that a bikini in this color is the cutest thing we've ever laid eyes on! If you’re accessorizing, go with some beaded green jewelry to stay in line with the color theme.

4. High-waisted Bikini

If you still want to wear a two-piece set while still keeping it demure, a high-waisted bikini is your best friend for a more modest vibe! Grab one in a fun Zebra-esque print just like this one that’s still summer-ready but with just a tad bit more coverage.

Colorful prints just scream summer! Just ask beach babe Patricia Henson as she dons a colorful triangle bikini for a hot summer's day.

6. Bucket Hat + Printed Bikini + Oversized Shirt

This cute printed swimsuit is the perfect choice for a whole day lounging by the sea! Keeping with the same color palette as the bikini, incorporate blue accessories like an oversized button-down cover-up, bucket hat, and chunky beaded jewelry to wrap up your ‘fit.

7. Animal-Printed Bikini with neon accent

Time and time again, animal prints just keep making a comeback in fashion. This bikini features a quirky zebra print with green lining for a unique touch. It’s definitely a design to try out for your next beach vacay!

8. Printed Bikini + Denim Shorts

We’ve been spottting more swimsuits with criss-cross details across the chest and torso, and it’s safe to say that we’re obsessed! Without even trying, this detail gives a sultry vibe to your regular bikini, while still keeping it cute and fresh!
