Summer means one thing on repeat around here — bikinis, pool days, and way too much time spent scrolling for the next cute swim find. And honestly? This season Aerie did not disappoint. In fact, I’m breaking down my three favorite pieces from their Summer Collection that got the most wear (and the most DMs asking “link please?!”).

1. The Snakeskin Bikini Set

This one is a certified summer staple, and for good reason. The neutral snakeskin print goes with everything, looks incredible against a tan, and somehow works just as well on the sand as it does lounging on the sky deck. What’s more, the matching snakeskin pants make it an easy transition from beach to boardwalk — instant outfit, zero effort. Ultimately, a summer tan + snakeskin bikini is a match made in heaven.

2. The Shell Print Triangle Bikini

Bright, cheerful, and impossible to miss — this yellow and green shell print is giving pure Florida summer. In particular, it’s a string bikini so it’s fully adjustable (a major plus for getting the right fit), and the color pops beautifully in golden hour photos by the pool. Additionally, this was hands-down the most-asked-about piece all season.

3. Terry Cloth Shorts + Ribbed Bikini

The ultimate “I still look put together but I’m actually just working poolside” combo — and honestly, this one’s a game-changer. The pink ribbed bikini that I picked up last year, paired with matching terry cloth shorts, is comfortable enough to lounge, work, and read in. Not only that, it’s cute enough that you don’t feel like you’re just in loungewear. Furthermore, it’s perfect for those days you don’t want to commit to a full pool day but still want the summer aesthetic. At the end of the day, terry cloth shorts + an Aerie bikini = perfection on the sky deck.

So, what was your favorite from Aerie this summer? Let me know in the comments or send me a DM — I’d absolutely love to hear which piece you’re adding to cart!
