Summersalt Ruched Swim Skirt

This option from Summersalt does not have a liner, which means it’s more of a water-friendly coverup than a swim bottom — but it looks great paired with a variety of swim styles, from one-pieces to traditional triangle bikinis. Go monochromatic with matching pieces, or mix and match with complementary patterns. Find it here for $65.
