36 Cute Bikini Tops to Wear With Your Most Basic Bottoms

I’ll admit I’m kind of cheap when it comes to swimwear. Don’t get me wrong. I love a good bikini, one-piece, or cute cover-up as much as the next person, but it’s one of the categories I struggle the most with actually spending on. When I do buy one, I'll typically wait for sales to hit at the end of the season to get something for the following year; other times I spend on classic styles that I think have more longevity. Once in a while, a suit is so good I lose my inhibitions and buy it on the spot.

One of my other favorite tricks is to spend on a bikini top (which we all know gets the most face time) and save by pairing it with bottoms I already own. Unless I’m actually swimming or working on my tan, I prefer to be wearing a cover-up, such as a pareo or shorts, and if my basic black or neutral bikini bottoms show here and there, I’m truly unbothered. If you’re on the same page or completely disagree but would like to see the tops I’ve rounded up today anyway—after all, no one is stopping you from buying the whole set—just keep scrolling.   

Wear this with any black bottoms or even your favorite jeans.
I love how this looks like tie-dye at first, but it's actually a delicate rose print.
I'm a big fan of this print combo.
Retro vibes done right. 
This rust color feels so fresh.
You can't go wrong with this one.
I love how literally this hits on the bra-inspired trend.
Our EIC (and plenty of other fashion girls) are fans of this one.
Can't say no to this print.
Even more lingerie-inspired than the others.
This cut looks so cool on.
I also implore you to consider the matching pareo.
H&M always nails the affordable prints.
Classic (and flattering).
For a delicate touch.
Ruffles take swimwear to the next level.
A pop of pink never hurt.
You could probably wear this as a top, too.
I'm not sure what I like more—the cut or fabric.
Lonely's vintage-inspired swimwear always delivers.
According to Topshop's site, this is selling fast, and I'm not the least bit surprised. 
There's a reason WeWoreWhat's swimwear is constantly selling out.
The good kind of basic.
Fashion editors can't get enough of this affordable brand.
You can't beat this color.
I know you were waiting for some animal print!
Self-Portrait's swimwear is made for compliments.
A non-boring neutral if I've ever seen one.
This will look so good with a white skirt, too.
Okay, so technically this one is only sold as a set, but I couldn't resist this color, cut, and sparkle combo.

They may not fit into one of the above, more common categories, but that's no reason to count them out.

Definitely another style that could double as an actual top this summer.
My shoulders tend to burn, so this seems like a stylish and logical choice to me.
Revolve's swimwear section is a trove of trendy finds.
This comes in five other covetable colors, but I'm usually drawn to black and white.
Smocking makes everything cuter.
Delicate ruffles complement this shade of blue perfectly.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
