10 Indie Swimwear Brands for Summer 2020
With summer finally here we’re all way overdue for a little socially-distanced beach or pool time. These past few months your WFH loungewear may have been your go-to outfit for trips to your living room or home office but it’s time to step out of your comfort zone. For your next poolside lounge, you might grab your swimsuit from last year (we haven’t gone shopping yet either) but we’ve got something a bit trendier in mind for your next poolside lounge.
