I Tried On 19 Swimsuits in the Comfort of My Own Home—These 10 Were My Faves
Okay, well, I admit: I'm a little obsessed with bikinis. (Did the title of the story give it away?) To be honest, I can't really spend a day without rummaging around in the newcomers section of my favorite retailers. But hey, I'm a LA girl, so the beach season here is almost all year round. And just because my favorite beaches are closed for loungers (I'll be there soon, Malibu!), Doesn't that mean I'm not buying suits I'll wear this summer - starting on my balcony.
After trying on a million suits (I'm a 32DD and picky about my tops!), My swimming drawer is now crowded with all the bikini styles you can think of - bandeau, triangle, sporty, balconette - and me. I'm not angry with it. Keep scrolling for the 10 bikinis that I declare to be my absolute favorites, plus a few more that I'm obsessed with.
I love, love, love everything from Monday Swimwear. I said it once, and I'll say it again, I swear on everything that Tash and Dev create because they have bigger busts like me. Since I'm a DD with a smaller band size, I'm always between sizes, but due to the tie on the back, I can adjust the top so that it fits perfectly.
Buy the suit:
Monday swimwear Jamaica Top ($ 92)
Monday swimwear Argentina Bottom ($ 82)
The color makes me so happy, the crinkle fabric makes me so happy, the cut makes me so happy - so yes, this bikini is obviously one of my favorites.
Buy the suit:
Tori Praver swimwear sophia smocked bikini top ($ 99)
Tori Praver swimwear Dylan Smocked Bikini Bottom ($ 99)
I was skeptical about this bikini because I usually want a little more fabric for my chest (as you can see from my brown lines here - ignore them!), But I fell in love with it. Not only is the color fun, the cups are also quite adjustable (and the straps are tied at the top and bottom) so you can choose how much coverage you want.
Buy the suit:
Frankie's Bikinis Dume Top ($ 85)
Frankie's Bikinis Dume Bottom ($ 85)
I'm a big fan of bandeau tops. Many people think that larger breasts are more difficult to wear style. Sometimes that's true, but you just have to find the right brand. If there is enough fabric and it is tight enough on your body (but not too tight to crush the girls), it looks and feels so good.
Buy the suit:
Jade swim all around bandeau bikini top ($ 80)
Jade Swim Incline Bikini Briefs ($ 90)
I've been keeping an eye on everything these days (I blame Instagram), and this suit didn't disappoint. The color is so bright and I love that the cute tankini style makes me feel a little nostalgic about my childhood.
Buy the suit:
Peixoto Cleo Top ($ 74)
Peixoto Bella full bikini bottoms ($ 66)
Another bandeau style that's so good! There is so much support in this top and the fabric feels like real butter. Trust me: you always need this black suit in your bikini drawer.
Buy the suit:
Myra Daria Bandeau bikini top ($ 95)
Myra Hugo bikini briefs ($ 95)
To be honest, I've been looking for a lemon print suit for almost a year now and have finally found a winner.
Buy the suit:
Bond eye tied crop bikini top ($ 90)
Bond Eye So Vain High Waisted Brief ($ 85)
The balcony of this suit is everything. It is seriously so supportive. Plus, I just can't get over how good this color is.
