4 Years Later, and I'm Still Loyal to These 7 Bikini Brands

You could say I am obsessed with swimsuits. I grew up in Orange County, where a typical summer day consisted of getting up, throwing on a swimsuit and an oversize T-shirt, and heading to the beach all day. When you're at the level of considering swimwear a part of your daily summer uniform, your relationship with bikinis and the like starts to change. Swimsuits are no longer for frills and show—they were a huge part of my life, which means when it comes to knowing a thing or two about the best bikini brands, I'm more than qualified. 

Beyond my beachy upbringing, I am exposed to a lot of swimwear brands through my job as a fashion editor, and while the seven bikini brands highlighted below are certainly not the be-all and end-all, they are the ones that I have been loyal to over the last four years (at least). So if you've been struggling with where to start your perfect bikini hunt or just aren't sure which brands are worth the money, hopefully, my comprehensive guide below will help you navigate the murky swimsuit waters. 

Solid & Striped is a cult favorite of swimsuit lovers everywhere. And not to be that person, but I've been a fan since way before they were as hot of a commodity as they are now, and I can assure you my love for the brand has only increased as time goes on. Solid & Striped offers one of the widest ranges of styles and trends that I've ever seen from a swim brand, which makes it approachable for nearly everyone.

Peony is an Australian swimwear brand that is just straight-up pretty. Every suit, whether it be doused in florals and lace or oversize polka dots, is guaranteed to grant you tons of compliments for summers to come.
Shop the matching Stretch-Repreve Seersucker Bikini Briefs ($75).
Shop the matching Polka-Dot Stretch-Econyl Bikini Briefs ($75).
Marysia is a classic fashion-girl swimsuit brand that I can personally attest to being worth the splurge. I own two Marysia swimsuits, and no matter where I wear them—ocean, beach, lake—they maintain their shape and quality wash after wash. Additionally, the timeless styles and that iconic scalloped edge make you feel like you're not just buying into another swimsuit trend; you're investing in confident summer days to come. 
Shop the matching Venice Bottoms ($153).
Ookioh is a tad newer to the scene, but I've been wearing my suits from the brand for almost three years now. Everything from the bright colors to the retro styles feels so fun no matter what swim trends are on the rise. Not to mention each piece is under $50, meaning you can mix and match without feeling too guilty. 
Shop the matching Monaco Bottoms ($49). 
Shop the matching Goa Bottoms ($49).
Shop the matching Monaco Bottoms ($49).  
I had to do it. H&M has some of the best swimsuits around, and you know it. Some of my all-time favorite bikinis are from H&M and cost me less than $50 total. This brand is obviously a one-stop shop for everything from basics to trends, but if you're on the hunt for a new affordable bikini, check H&M first.
Shop the matching Bikini Bottoms ($13).
If you're looking for trendy, eye-catching bikinis, Onia has got you covered. Beyond that, the fit of these suits is next-level, which personally leaves me feeling a little extra confident every time I put one on. 
Shop the matching Ashley Bikini Bottoms ($95).
Shop the matching Chiara Bikini Bottoms ($95).
Juillet is the swimsuit brand you never knew you needed in your life. I swear these bikinis were made with a woman's every curve in mind, which makes them worth the purchase every time. Whenever I want to feel strong yet pretty, I put on one of my Juillet swimsuits and call it a day. 
Shop the matching Gemma Bikini Bottom ($108).
Shop the matching Chloe Bikini Bottom ($110).
Shop the matching Annie Bikini Bottom ($110). Next up: Shop the 10 best shoes to wear with summer dresses.

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...
