Favorite Swimwear Starting at $27!

Spring break and summer getaways are just around the corner so we’re busy finding the perfect swimsuits and accessories! Right now we’re loving the latest swim styles from J.Crew, most of which are currently marked down (don’t miss the deals on this one-shoulder gingham suit, this classic bikini and this gauze beach skirt!). We just ordered this linen button-up shirt that we’re planning to pair with a pretty pareo over swimwear for vacation lunches, and of course we always add our favorite straw hat and classic sunglasses. These jelly sandals are a total steal and great for the beach or pool, and we just snapped up this oversized straw tote.
