Albion Fit High-Waisted Swim Skirt
Albion Fit is known for offering fun patterns in a variety of styles, so you can mix and match pieces to create your personal ultimate suit. The high-waisted swim skirt ($68, pictured here in the “Costa” print) is a great example. Pair with an off-the-shoulder top like the one pictured here, a one-shoulder number, a traditional spaghetti strap top … the options are endless.

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.

L’Agence Ellen Skirt Bikini Bottom
This tropical print style from L’Agence features a side tie with faux pearl charms, highlighting the variety of options we’re seeing in swim skirt designs this year. You can find the skirt ($200) here and the matching top ($145) here.

Lands’ End Ruffle Hem Mini Swim Skirt
This ruffle hem skirt ($67.95 from Lands’ End) is available in a variety of colors and patterns. It comes with a built-in panty so it can be worn as a swim bottom OR layered over a smaller bottom for extra coverage on walks down the beach (or to the bar!).

J.Crew Swim Skirt
J.Crew’s swim skirt ($89.50) looks effortlessly chic paired with a triangle string bikini top. Available in black and navy, you can’t go wrong with this option. Even better? The ultra-simple design is ideal for layering on your favorite accessories!
