1. A balconette top and high-waisted bottom that has an old Hollywood, "I just stepped off the set of a black-and-white film" look to it. Vintage-inspired pieces = a true source of joy.
Promising review: "This bikini is one of my all-time favorite bathing suits. I love the extra coverage that the high-waisted bottoms provide, and the top provides good support. Both pieces fit me just right, and I've never had any issues with wardrobe malfunctions while in the pool. The polka dots and styling are adorable and retro. The quality of this suit at the price point is simply amazing." —Allison White
Price: $9.99+ (available in sizes M-5X and in 22 colors)
2. A bikini set complete with cutout bottoms and a cropped off-the-shoulder top. Say hello to the perfect boardwalk attire — just add some denim shorts and no one will know that you've just stepped off your beach towel to buy some snacks.
3. A fully-lined string bikini available in 26 colors, of which you will want them all. My condolences to your wallet, but my congratulations to your summer wardrobe.
Promising review: "THIS IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE BIKINI! The bottoms have string which means they are entirely adjustable, and the same is true of the top. The cut of the bottoms is PERFECT! They are just cheeky enough to be flattering, without being so cheeky they are too revealing. I couldn't be happier with this suit." —Amazon Customer
Price: $17.99+ (available in sizes S-XL and in 26 colors)
4. A racerback bikini set you're absolutely going to fall in love with. At the very least, it'll ~leaf~ a lasting impression.
5. A bandeau and high-cut bottom so chic, it'll be impossible to not take a mirror pic as soon as you try it on. Look at you! Channeling your former Myspace self!
Promising review: "I've never purchased a swimsuit on Amazon before because I've always been nervous about their quality, fit, and the legitimacy of the sellers. I made sure to read all of the reviews/look at all of the customer photos and I was STILL hesitant to buy. I pulled the trigger thinking if I didn't like it then it was only ~$20. But wow! I am so glad I took a chance on this bikini! I love the thick and buttery soft material and to my surprise, it fits perfectly! These bottoms come up to the bellybutton and sit on top of my hips which is great and, while the backside is a little skimpy, they are super flattering! I'll definitely be buying other patterns." —Marc Lopez
Price: $19.99+ (available in sizes S-XL and in 27 colors)
6. A strappy two-piece because little black dresses are great and all, but little black bikinis? An *absolute* necessity.
7. A halter top and high-waisted bottom featuring *gasp* adorable tassel trim that looks as if it just walked straight off the runway and into your Amazon shopping cart.
Reviewers suggest ordering a size up for the perfect fit!
Promising review: "This is hands down my FAVORITE Amazon purchase in quite a while. It fits AMAZING, the color is bright, and quality is good! I washed it and it has held up just as good as all of my expensive swim suits." —Amazon Customer
Price: $25.99+ (available in sizes 4-16 and in nine colors)
8. A bikini set that I wish I was currently wearing on a boat somewhere in Greece, champagne in hand and not a care in the world. Yet here I am. At a desk.
Why is the above fantasy not my current reality? Life can be so cruel.
Promising review: "I'M SO IN LOVE WITH THIS! I debated for weeks about if I should get this or not, and I’m so glad I did. The bottoms fit like a dream! They are a little cheeky, which I love, and are super soft and light but not at all see-through! The top fits pretty good as well. The cups are slightly large on me but definitely still wearable, I also took out the removable pads because I wasn’t a fan of how they made the suit look. But overall, I'm obsessed!" —abby
Price: $28.99 (available in sizes S-XXL and in five colors)
9. An underwire bikini top you'll want to buy ASAP because a) it's B-L-A-C-K meaning it pairs perfectly with any colorful bottom and b) it's bra-sized, which ensures the perfect fit.
10. A scoop top and high-waisted bottom sure to inspire philosophical debates. Do you actually *need* to wear real clothes? If you live in a warm climate, can you get away with wearing a bikini everywhere? Can you wear this particular bikini everywhere? Why not?
Promising review: "Like, WOW. I bought this on a whim because I really love this bathing suit style, but I’ve always been way too scared to actually buy one. I’m a size 12, I have a ton of stretch marks, and honestly I am very body conscious — this will make you look bomb, whatever your body type is. I ordered a size XL, and it fit great." —Christino
Price: $26.99 (available in sizes S-XXL and in 10 colors)
11. A criss cross bikini set that should not be overshadowed by a cover-up, thank you very much. It's too gorgeous to be covered by any clothes at all.
Promising review: "I am in love with this bikini! I bought this for my study abroad trip and I think this is going to be perfect. It’s well made, and looks just like the picture. Plus, the bottoms have pretty good coverage compared to other swimsuits these days." —Sierra R.
Price: $23.99+ (available in sizes XS-XXL and in 10 colors)
12. A ruffled bikini set that will have you humming 🎶 itsy bitsy teenie weenie white and black polka-dot bikini 🎶 as you slather on that SPF.
Promising review: "Such a cute and cost effective swimsuit! I'm actually totally impressed with the quality; it is not see-through, which was a major concern of mine with the white polka dots when wet, etc. The fit was as expected and the bottoms are a full-butt, which is what I was looking for as I will be around children and family on vacation. Do yourself a favor and order this!" —Alexis S.
Price: $17.99+ (available in sizes S-XL and in 11 colors and styles)
13. A push-up top and high-waisted bottom guaranteed to have random strangers coming up to you at the beach just so they could ask where you got your suit. Look at you go! Making friends and such.
Promising review: "This is a great suit for the price! The top is very study and comes with padding and versatile straps, so you could make a halter or go strapless. The bottom is perfect is you have wider hips/butt and want more coverage. This suit will definitely fit well if you have an hourglass figure, because it has a smaller waist and still leaves room for your hips." —Lilly R.
Price: $19.96+ (available in sizes M-XXL and in 11 colors)
14. A strappy swimsuit here to turn you into an overnight Instagram sensation. Get ready to quit your boring 9-5 (WOOOOO!) and turn into a full-time influencer with this gorgeous getup.
Promising review: "This suit is bomb! I ordered it for my cruise to Cozumel and I stepped out like 'Bammm, I look great'. It fits perfectly and I love the support it provides." —Yvette Campbell
Price: $9.99+ (available in sizes M-XXXL and in four colors)
15. A triangle top and tie-waist bottom sure to become your go-to swimsuit this beach season. This style is super no frills, no fuss, and B-A-S-I-C — but in the words of One Direction, that's what makes it beautiful.
Promising review: "I honestly did not have high expectations for this suit, but based on the good reviews I thought what the heck. I weigh about 180lbs and wear a 36DDD and ordered an XL, and I was FLOORED when it arrived. Good quality and good fit! I am beyond belief that a $22 swimsuit actually worked like this! There is no doubt that I will buy more in different colors." —caraleigh
Price: $22.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in nine colors)
16. A ruffled top and high-waisted cut-out bottom that will get you a ton of compliments. In fact, you'll start telling people to "cut it out" with all the praise after a while. Your ego can only inflate by so much.
Promising review: "This bathing suit looks wonderful, feels wonderful, and fits wonderfully — it's exactly what I wanted! I couldn't be more pleased. It arrived on time, was packaged nicely, and the material is nice and thick. Plus, it looks way more expensive than it actually is." —GlamElite84
Price: $11.95+ (available in sizes XL-XXXXL and in eight colors)
17. A halter top and high-waisted bottom known for encouraging spontaneity. Will you randomly book an all-inclusive vacay right after trying this bikini on? Yeah, probably.
Promising review: "I ordered a size up and it was PERFECT. SUPER CUTE. I was super surprised by how nice the quality and fit was, especially since I’m used to spending, like, $80 on a bikini. This is way cuter than traditional bikinis I've bought in the past!" —MotherofDachshunds
Price: $23.99 (available in sizes S-XXXXL and in four colors)
18. A tankini suit you'll want to wear on next water park outing. Scared as HECK that a body part will pop out whilst on a ride? Take that fear and shove it to the side with this fairly full-coverage two-piece!
Promising review: "I am in love with this suit! I was so incredibly disappointed by the swimsuits offered in a bunch of stores and so tired of trying things on that didn't fit, so I decided to take a risk and order online. This suit is perfect! Great coverage and support in the top, and I like that the pads that are actually STITCHED into the suit. (Best thing ever! No struggling with them after you wash the suit and they move). I have gotten TONS of compliments when wearing this." —Sarah
Price: $28.99 (available in sizes S-XXL and in two colors)
19. A two-piece suit featuring a boyshort for anyone who absolutely hates stringy, super cheeky bottoms. These provide a bit more coverage without making you feel as if you're wearing bermuda shorts in the pool.
Promising review: "This is a beautiful bikini! I feel supported on top and fully covered, and the boy shorts are adjustable for more or less coverage. I bought this in the royal blue and am coming back for the other colors!" —Amazon Customer
Price: $16.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in six colors)
20. A ruffled off-shoulder top and bikini bottom because it's almost SPRING BREAK Y'ALL and why not treat yourself to a moderately-priced two-piece sure to inspire some oohs and ahhs from fellow beachgoers?
Promising review: "Super pleased with this purchase! Good quality, and I love the print, colors, and fit! I’m a 32DD and have trouble with strapless suits staying up, but this one will be comfortable all day! The bottoms are decent coverage as well and not too cheeky! I went by the size chart, ordered a medium, and it fits perfectly. Can't wait to wear this at the beach!" —Emily Campbell
Price: $16.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in eight colors)
21. A bikini set designed with removable padding (plus ties at the neck and back!) to ensure ample support for your breast friends.
Promising review: "I LOVE this bathing suit. It fits well and feels incredibly high quality, and it seems like the top is versatile enough to fit different chest sizes and shapes. The colors are actually even better in person and slightly more vibrant than in the picture. I'm tempted to buy a second one!" —Megan Galaway
Price: $17.99 (available in sizes S-XL)
22. A high-neck top and bikini bottom available in a bunch of gorgeous prints that are truly ~tie dye~ for (because yes, the below suit is also available in a fun tie dye print).
23. A bra bikini top and hipster briefs you could buy separately because — GASP — sometimes you're not the same size on top as you are on bottom. Shocking, I know! This customize-your-suit options allow you to snag a bikini with the perfect fit for YOU.
Promising review: "This is by far the best bikini top that I've owned. The coverage it provides is awesome and the style is very complimentary. I have a hard time finding bikini tops that I don't feel like I'm constantly adjusting/feeling as if I'm going to pop out of. But the quality of this one is outstanding!" —Carri Weaver
Promising review: "I have to say that I was skeptical about buying a bathing suit bottom on line. I am so picky because I want coverage, but not too much coverage — and these fit perfectly! Love that you can adjust the sides. Absolutely perfect." —CTROW
Price: $16.99 (top, available in sizes 32B-38D) and $14.99 (bottoms, available in sizes 4-16)
24. A ruffled off-the-shoulder set perfect for lounging poolside, living your best Hakuna Matata life. Worries? You have not one in the world!

Price: $23.99 (available in sizesS-XXL)
