Classic Comebacks: Striped Bikinis  

Stripes are making a comeback. One of this year's hottest looks is the good ol' classic striped bikini. Depending on your mood and taste, you can choose bold or bright, horizontal or diagonal, traditional or contemporary. Striped bikinis are an awful lot of fun and can draw attention to the right areas. {relatedarticles}

Try to select colors that suit your skin tone in a style that's flattering for your body shape. Some of the striped bikinis we like the best this year are: 

• Blue Striped Texture Fabric Sexy Two Piece Swimsuit – This bikini features a slightly padded halter top and matching bottoms that snugly fit the hips. AMI Clubwear, $9.99.
• Mix-and-Match Cirque Bikini – This bikini top has a push-up design for a little extra "oomph." The bottoms are sporty, with side ties and great style. Best of all, you can mix and match styles and patterns to fit your body and personality, and the price can't be beat. Target, $16-18 per piece. 

Stripes, bandeaus, girly, retro and mix-and-match bikinis are the hottest styles you'll see on the beach this summer. Select one that suits your style, body and budget or invest in several to keep rocking all summer long.
