20 Swimsuits That Will Help Your Wallet And Body Confidence This Summer

Now that it's April, swimsuit season is right around the corner. Scary thought, I know. Still, though, it's always good to go ahead and start the swimsuit shopping early.

Here are 20 swimsuit options for women of all sizes, that are cute and under $40...because everybody wants to look good, feel good, and still be financially secure.

1. This black and white scoop neck one piece from Cupshe.

https://www.cupshe.com/collections/new-in-here/products/navy-and-white-stripe-scoop-one-piece-swimsuit

Cupshe is a brand I've been seeing nonstop on Pinterest lately. They've got a ton of cute swimsuit options for just about any style you'd want.

Price: 23.99
Sizing: small - xx large

2. My holy grail swimsuit: aka the plus size tiered tankini from Target

https://www.target.com/p/women-s-plus-size-tiered-tankini-top-aqua-green-174/-/A-51612605?preselect=53736082#lnk=sametab

I knew I had to include this one because it's the swimsuit top I've been wearing most for the past 5 years. Let me tell you from experience that this top is adorable, and holds up SO well! This one of the more expensive on the list, but I was able to use it nonstop for 2 whole years before having to buy a replacement, so I'd say it's worth the price. It's made especially with us plus sized ladies in mind.

Price: 32.99
Sizing: 16W-26W
Link: https://www.target.com/p/women-s-plus-size-tiered-tankini-top-aqua-green-174/-/A-51612605?preselect=53736082#lnk=sametab

3. A one-piece with blue and white gingham & a twist-front!

https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-3223172/womens-lc-lauren-conrad-beach-shop-tie-front-one-piece-swimsuit.jsp?color=Black&prdPV=10

Gingham is one of those prints that I feel like will CONSTANTLY stay in style. And even if it goes out of style...who cares? It's still adorable, and perfect for the beach.

Price: 39.99
Sizing: x small - xx large (also available in plus size here)
Link: https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-3223172/womens-lc-lauren-conrad-beach-shop-tie-front-one-piece-swimsuit.jsp?color=Black&prdPV=10

4. Forever 21 crimson twist-front swimsuit.

https://www.forever21.com/us/shop/catalog/product/plus/plus_size-swimwear/2000329205

I actually just added this to my cart when I found it. Tankinis are so effortlessly flattering. You just throw them on, and let them flow. And, while this is technically just the top, you could use just about any set of bottoms for this, so it doesn't end up breaking the bank.

Price: 22.99
Sizing: 0x - 3x

5. A little black swimsuit with cute sleeves.

https://www.zaful.com/off-the-shoulder-flounced-one-piece-swimwear-p_269953.html

Zaful, admittedly, is a website I've been pretty hesitant about. I've only ever heard about them when being mentioned by youtubers or social media influencers, but after having heard one of my friends say how much she loves their website, I decided I'd try and see what all they had in the swimsuit department. Turns out, they have a lot...including this one.

Price: 13.83 (and they usually have online store codes!)
Sizing: small to large
Link: https://www.zaful.com/off-the-shoulder-flounced-one-piece-swimwear-p_269953.html

6. This coral & floral lace-front one-piece from Target

https://www.zaful.com/off-the-shoulder-flounced-one-piece-swimwear-p_269953.html

Floral prints are always perfect for the beach...and just summer in general!

Price: 20.99
Sizing: small - large
Link: https://www.target.com/p/beach-betty-153-by-miracle-brands-women-s-slimming-control-tropical-high-neck-one-piece-swimsuit-pink/-/A-53061599?preselect=53008009#lnk=sametab

7. One-piece swimsuit with a desert theme.

https://www.forever21.com/us/shop/catalog/product/f21/swimwear_one-piece/2000240281

Another one from Forever 21! It's a super cute (and super on sale) swimsuit with a graphic of a desert scene on it. Super cute for those hot days where you wanna cool off.

Price: 11.00
Sizing: small - large

8. This purple and gold striped bikini that's PERFECT for us ECU students.

https://www.cupshe.com/collections/new-in-here/products/yellow-and-purple-stripe-bikini

Since I'm writing for East Carolina, my Alma Mater, I knew I'd have to include this swimsuit in honor of the school's colors. Whether you're an ECU pirate or not, though, this bikini is really cute if you're looking

9. This minimalist snakeskin look from Kohl's.

Snakeskin is one of the best patterns for people who don't like a lot of color, or aren't used to patterned clothing. It's pretty neutral, while also having an eye-cathing appearance.

Price: 36.99
Sizing: small - large
Link: https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-3081064/Women-s-Ibiza-Snakeskin-Foil-One-Piece-Swimsuit-.jsp?pfm=bdrecs-WebStore-PDP-PDPSlot1Test2-b751-231&bdrecsId=52947148-58e7-450f-91ca-c93e15b5572c

10. A cutesy, lavender tie-front piece.

Looking for something a little more girly? Lavender + knots is the best combination. It's got an innocent vibe to it, while also showing off that summer bod.

Annnnd here's another Old Navy swimsuit! This one is kind of the opposite of the previous one, in both color and style. Where the other is more cutesy, this one's a bit more bold.

Price: 32.00
Sizing: x small - xx large (also available in tall sizes)
Link: https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=392026002&cid=68081&pcid=68066

15. This gorgeous floral off-the-shoulder look.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XCDYS4M?creativeASIN=B06XCDYS4M&linkCode=w61&imprToken=wBIkXmvua-v8WrxKf7-8gQ&slotNum=81&tag=bfsam-20&ascsubtag=4564172%2C22%2C29%2Cd%2C0%2C0%2Cgoogle.com%2C0%3A0

I'm constantly forgetting that Amazon sells clothing! So, when I found out this swimsuit was from Amazon, of all places, I was genuinely shocked. Especially for something so cute and trendy.

Price: 17.99
Sizing: small - x large
Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XCDYS4M?creativeASIN=B06XCDYS4M&linkCode=w61&imprToken=wBIkXmvua-v8WrxKf7-8gQ&slotNum=81&tag=bfsam-20&ascsubtag=4564172%2C22%2C29%2Cd%2C0%2C0%2Cgoogle.com%2C0%3A0

19. Champagne...but in swimsuit form.

https://www.rue21.com/store/jump/product/Green-Tropical-Leaf-Caged-Racerback-One-Piece-Swimsuit/0465-000065-0007438-0090

So this one is definitely the highest on the list, and even with the sale price, it's pretty expensive. Buuuut, it's a unique swimsuit, and it's still under $50, making it pretty inexpensive as far as quality swimwear is concerned. Its price is definitely lifted due to it's ties to Kendall and Kylie Jenner, but it's hard to deny that it's a damn cute swimsuit.

Price: 37.46 (originally 49.95)
Sizing: x small - large
Link: https://www.pacsun.com/kendall-kylie/blush-lurex-bardot-one-piece-swimsuit-0810451180333.html?dwvar_0810451180333_color=901&cgid=onepiece-rashguards#srule=Price+-+Low+to+High&sz=24&start=12

While all of these swimsuits are cute, and affordable (as far as swimwear is concerned), at the end of the day, it doesn't truly matter which one you pick. All that matters is that you feel great in what you're wearing and that you fully rock that body confidence in and out of the pool this summer.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
