It’s been a few months now that I’ve been on a mission to find the perfect white bikini.
I’ve never owned a white swimsuit. Truth be told - it seems like it’s a very high maintenance choice; making sure it doesn’t get dirty, I’m “tan enough” for it, and of course…the see-through factor. Ahem.
Regardless, I’ve still got my mind set on finding thee white bikini. White just seems like it’s so darn classy…or whatever. Right?
The thing is, though, I want a classic, almost old-fashioned looking one. But with summer right around the corner, the only luck I’ve had so far is on good old Pinterest.
So with just a few weeks left, my bikini mission is still a go. Wish me luck!
(…you know, since there is clearly nothing more important going on in the world than finding the perfect bikini.)
What’s on your summer wish list? Favorite style of swimsuit?
I love vic secret swimsuits. I’d say 98% of my collection (I have a crapload) are from vicky’s. I’ve been seeing your white bikinis pinned figuring you were on the hunt.
good luck!
Those are so pretty. I have an old piece that I’ve worn to death. I told myself I’d get a new one this year…but I might get a maxi dress or large sun hat instead.

ooooh that’s so pretty and could really solve the “see-through” factor! good luck on your search- i keep staring at maaji swimwear bikinis but they are SO expensive
just checked out maaji for the first time…AH!!!!
Good Luck! I’m too scared to brace the white swimwear…!
I love old-school one pieces. Vintage-y ones
It’s a little plain jane, but I think the corset top is right on point with ‘classic/vintage’ kind of feel! http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product.jsp?productId=0462_3234_100&catId=cat10054&bundleCatId=cat4900041
That is adorable!!!!

I don’t know if this helps at all, but I have a suit just like that from Germany a couple of years ago… maybe check somewhere that sells more European styles?

If you’ve never been to this site have a look. Lots of old fashion style bathing suits. I have an emerald green one piece they make and it’s absolute wonderful. Maybe you’ll find what you’re after

Try Anthropologie. A little pricey but super cute vintagey bathing suits.

I’ve always had a white swimsuit in the collection
Spending the money for a nice white swimsuit is key! Otherwise they get that “funk” color. I got mine at just add water. Try heading into a store that specializes in swimwear! You won’t regret it!
Ah thanks for that tip…checking out add water now! (it’s the same as everythingbutwater.com, right?)
