T By Alexander Wang clothing / Melissa Odabash one piece swimsuit / Topshop bikini swimwear / Lisa Marie Fernandez bikini swimwear / Milly bikini swimwear / H M bikini swimwear, $22 / River Island bikini swimwear, $20 / H M bikini, $13 / River Island bikini swimwear, $27 / H M bikini swimwear, $12 / H M swim top, $22

Now that beaches are open we can finally slip into a bikini and enjoy some sun! I have been shopping lately for some swimwear and thought it might be a good idea to show you some options that I am coveting and how you can also get similar swimsuits for a steal. I honestly don't like to spend much on swimsuits as I like to have more variety.

1. Lisa Marie Fernandez neoprene bikini: This swimsuit is gorgeous but runs about $325 and I think that this H&M option is a bit more flattering yet has a similar style. I prefer straps on my bikini due to having a broader back. The detailing on the H&M one gives the swimsuit the same feel as the neoprene one.
2. Melissa Obadash ruched swimsuit is so classic, it actually has a detachable halter stap and has the ability to adjust the ruches to cover your hips - very Marilyn Monroe. The price of this swimsuit is $290, although it is stunning I did find a similar option that can give you the same look at Topshop for $72.
3. Alexander Wang's striped bathing suit is so cute! The stripes start and end at the most flattering areas making your waist appear slimmer. I didn't find an exact dupe for this one but I think this H&M swimsuit is perfect. The stripes go in different directions on the bra but continue to go horizontally on the bottom and because this is a 2 piece it allows you to show off your waist.
4. Triangl has made a huge splash in this years swimwear collections and have gorgeous options at a reasonable price around $89 however I was able to find an even cheaper alternative that is almost identical. This River Island option has a bit of a lighter mint color but the same structure and is only $47.

I hope I helped any of you that are looking for the perfect swimsuit but don't want to break the bank.
