It\u2019s swimsuit<\/a> season fashionistas. That means you get to flaunt your figure (and your fashion) in your teeniest, tiniest ensembles. But who wants to spend a $100 or more for a little strip of fabric you\u2019ll only wear for a few months?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We don\u2019t either. We’d much rather invest $50 in a classic suit that’ll be wearable next year and the year after \u2014 for as long as we take care of that dainty beach wear<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
