To switch up the patterns, Bolin picked this black and white cover-up with different prints for a bold, modern look. Hitting just above your ankles, you can wear this kimono-style option open-front or tie it for more coverage.

Women's Health Editor-in-Chief Liz Plosser previously stopped by TODAY to share the four swimsuit trends for 2022 that they're expecting to see everywhere.
This athletic-inspired top is designed for women with larger busts and smaller ribcages, according to the brand (it's also their bestselling piece.) The multiple back straps help to distribute support, and the UPF 50+ compressive fabric helps provide protection from the sun.
From dresses to tops, the cutout trend seems to be popping up everywhere. This tasteful design is elevated thanks to wrap details at the back and a criss-cross design for some extra flair. It comes in sizes XS-XXL and offers regular coverage, according to the brand.
You might know Summersalt for its bestselling swimsuit, The Sidestroke, but The Marina is just as worthy of the hype. It hits right on the colorblocking trend (but is also available in a bold leopard print, if you're not into that), is made with a compressive fabric and offers the brand's fullest level of coverage for your bottom.
