Wish Want Need: Striped Bikini

Wish: Ete Swim Gigi Bikini, $275 Want: J.Crew top $52  & bottoms $44 Need: Target Bandeau Top/Bottom, $17.99 each

As I mentioned yesterday, I’m heading to the beach for the first time this season on Friday, so naturally I’ve got swimsuits on my mind. I’ve been searching for some cute new full coverage suits – and keep coming across the same nautical striped style that just screams South of France to me. Unfortunately bandeau tops don’t work so well on my erh…body type, but I’m loving this option from J.Crew that has a thicker strap! This weekend I will be sticking with one of my one piece suits – but hopefully I will be bikini ready for my next beach trip!
