Affordable Swimsuits for Summer

As soon as the weather warms up and finals are coming to an end, we all delve into the deep abyss of our closets to drag out the swimsuits that haven’t seen the light of day for quite some time.

Living in San Diego, we buy and wear a lot of swimsuits. But for some reason, swimsuits are ridiculously expensive. The question that plagues every girl while swimwear shopping is: why does such a small amount of fabric cost more than an entire outfit?

Here are some cheap places to buy swimsuits for Summer Sixteen:

1. H&M.

With the introduction of Balmain x H&M, it’s easy to forget that H&M was once a place that sold swimsuits for $5.Yes, you can buy a complete bikini set for $10. Most bikini pieces sell for an average of $12.99, and there is a huge range of styles for all body types. With all that extra cash in your pocket, you can spring for a cute pair of sunglasses and cut-off shorts.

Men’s swimwear is also available.

2. Target
