Since the calendar says it’s almost spring, it’s time to start looking at swimsuits. Of course a college budget does mean skimping on unnecessary things like a swimsuit.  Or does it?

Of course it doesn’t! To prove it here are some of my favorite best priced swimsuits.


Best Basic:
Check out Forever 21’s basic swimwear. It starts at $4.80 and comes in every color a girl could want and with prices so good, you can afford to buy more than one.

Best Pattern:

Victoria Secret swimwear clears out at some great prices. This rainbow top knows how to subtly work in sequins and color without creating a blinding mess.

Best Floral:
H&M knew how to handle their floral. Steering away from a tiny floral print, which can sometimes look outdated, they used bright colors and a twisted front to make their top stand out.

Best Bandeau:
Another win for H&M, with a unique style. Their bandeau has a deep V in the center, to show off a bit more cleavage than most.  Best yet if you have a larger chest you can get extra support from the removable straps.
