Savvy vs. Splurge: Striped bikini bandeau via Target and Saturday

July 4, 2013

The bandeau bikini is my favorite swimsuit style.

It’s got the versatility of being part of a two piece swimsuit, but usually has a bit more support (there are typically hook closures as opposed to tie closures on bikinis). I love that they just stay in place (warning: when strong waves meet a bikini, the waves will win!) There weren’t as many cute options for bandeaus before, but I’m happy to see that the bandeau comes in a variety of cute colors and styles now.

I just ordered this striped bikini from Target (see a few other favorite Target swimsuits here) and then noticed that a very similar one was offered at Saturday.  The Saturday one is still well priced though the Target one is only 1/3 of the price with the current promotion.

So tell me, would you be savvy or would you splurge?

    They are both gorgey, but I feel like the Saturday one is more to my liking – the stripes are thinner. :/

    That is such a cute top!! Wish I could get it, but the target just does not accommodate ladies with larger chests.

    They are actually so similar, I would go for the Target version, love the stripes.

    I’m not a bandeau fan (they’re not really for busty women) but Target has some AWESOME swimwear.
