Fuzzy Navel
There’s nothing sexier than an Eres bikini. The lux French brand’s Chinchilla bikini begs for a tropical locale. For Heinen’s contrast, line your eyes with Urban Decay’s 24/7 Glide-On Pencil in Electric.

Cherry Bomb
Bet you didn’t think a wet suit could look like this! Kassia Surf turned something very practical into something very sexy. Her Psychedelic Shorty Front Zip Neoprene One Piece Wetsuit works just as well on a board—paddle, surf, knee, your choice!—as it does on a lounge chair.
Kassia Surf 2MM Psychedelic Shorty Front Zip Neoprene One Piece Wetsuit, $305, kassiasurf.com
Blue Lagoon
If you have a long torso, look for a suit with sexy cut-outs, like this one from Mikoh, a California-based brand. Pair with a red orange lip, like Nars’ Velvet Matte Lip Pencil, and sea-soaked hair.
Mikoh Sydney in Electric Eel, $208, mikoh.com
Golden Glow
No one makes a swimsuit quite like Norma Kamali. The legendary designer’s classic design gets an evening-ready update in liquid gold. Depending on where you are, it could render clothing optional for cocktail hour.

You can’t go wrong with basic black. Norma Kamali’s strappy one-piece looks latex-like, which keeps it from being anything but boring.

The Volcano
No your eyes aren’t deceiving you—we’re all about the visor this summer. Heinen wears a red one by Patricia Underwood, but you can also snag something silly on whatever boardwalk you walk down on the way to the beach.

Pink Lemonade
Solid & Striped might win the summer, given the number of their striped suits dominating Instagram this season. The brand’s collaborated with style stars like Poppy Delevingne and Hilary Rhoda, but no fashion cred required to float in your own.
Solid & Striped Chloe Top, $88, solidandstriped.com
Solid & Striped Chloe Bottom, $88, solidandstriped.com
Slippery Nipple
Flagpole Swim is named for the beach on which designers Megan Baclh and Jaime Barker grew up in Florida. Inspired by dancewear, their unique suits are made for supporting an active lifestyle. Given how lux the fabric is, there’s a good chance you’ll want to splurge on the top, too.
Flagpole Swim Sierra Bottom, $198, flagpoleswim.com
Mint Julep
Lisa Marie Fernandez, a jet-setting designer known for slight retro, super chic suits, made things super easy: if your maillot’s made out of terry cloth, you don’t even need a towel! (Given that mint green looks extra swell on a deep tan, now’s the time to try St. Tropez’s new In-Shower Gradual Tan.)
Lisa Marie Fernandez Deena Mailot in Mint Terry, $365, lisamariefernandez.com
CRAP Eyewear The Human Fly Sunglasses in Crystal Peach with Rose Gradient, $54, crapeyewear.com
The Rum Punch
Who knew there were sultry swimsuits coming out of London? Prism, a brand that originally launched with sunglasses, makes this rusty red one-piece that will hold everything in place (without using your hands).

Model Bregje Heinen at The Lions
What happens when you send two fashion editors, one cute Peruvian photographer, and a smoking hot Victoria’s Secret model to Anguilla? The sexiest photo shoot Yahoo Style’s ever produced.
With three (official) weekends left of summer 2015, there’s still time to grab a new suit and head to the closest beach or, if you’re really feeling inspired, one very far away. (May we suggest Anguilla, a tiny British island in the Caribbean?) We took Victoria’s Secret model Bregje Heinen, a leggy, 23-year-old Dutch model, from the plane to the white sand beaches to show off a string of suits.
Want a suit to take you from day to night? Try Norma Kamali’s liquid gold suit. How about something sporty, in case you meet a surfer? Try Kassia Surf’s zip-up striped one-piece. For the ‘80s dance queen, there’s Lisa Marie Ferndandez’s mint green terry look and if it’s sex on the beach you are seriously after—try Thapelo Paris’s strappy blue and yellow bikini.
