Neon is the beachwear trend this summer.

Yes, neon is back, and high-waisted bottoms are still going strong. Those two have been the easy answers for a couple seasons now.

Neon looks good against tanned skin and stands out in photos. High-waisted bottoms are just more comfortable than the low-rise stuff from twenty years ago, and they give you that retro pinup silhouette if you pair them with a high-cut top. Expect to see a lot of lime green, hot pink, and electric orange on the sand.

Don’t overthink it. If you already own a black bikini you love, nobody cares what the trends are. But if you want to feel current, grab one neon piece and call it done.
