Tankini swimsuits are perfect for teen girls. Not only do they have the ideal combination of functionality and style, but they are also available in a wide range of styles to suit every teen’s personal look! Find flattering tankinis that your teen will love for fun and sun all summer long with these tips.
Keyhole tankinis are cute options that have that extra element of style! A small keyhole cutout at the top of the tankini can be a super-trendy look that teen girls love. This type of tankini top usually has a higher overall neckline, which is good for sun coverage as well. It pairs perfectly with a traditional or high-waisted swim bottom, as well as cute swim skirts. Teen girls who prefer styles that are more classic or simple will appreciate solid-color keyhole tankinis. Young ladies who are looking to make more of a splash with their swimwear have lots of print options available. Choose from florals, polka dots, tropical prints, multi-colored stripes, and more.
Sometimes teens are in a stage when they’re discovering exactly what their style preferences truly are. If your teen or tween is a bit undecided on just what her look is, an ombre style tankini swimsuit can be the answer. These adorable sets melt two complementary colors together in a gradual, subtle pattern that’s simple yet packs a powerful punch of style. This is also a great choice for the teen who is undecided in whether she wants to go with bright and bold colors in her swimwear or something on the more subtle, pastel end. Since it combines both sides of the spectrum, it’s a versatile option with the best of both worlds.
For active teen girls, there is nothing better than a high-neck tankini top and sporty swim shorts. These will allow her to participate in all sorts of water (and land) activities during the summer in total ease and confidence. The higher neckline on a tanking has a cute, slightly sporty look that works well as a modest swimsuit and pairs well with swim shorts. It has the perfect level of coverage for those more active days in the sun, too. Try a solid-color tankini with patterned swim shorts, or vice versa, to mix and match for a great summer look.
A cute swim skirt is a fashionable and comfortable look for any teen. While it can be paired with any number of tankini tops, you can't go wrong with a cool classic like a tankini top with a square neckline. This look is timeless yet trendy. Solid colors are a great option for this tankini, as are fun florals, chevron prints, or dots. Another reason for a square neckline tankini with a swim skirt? It creates a perfectly balanced look that’s flattering for all body types.
For a cool, classy look, teens can turn to trendy tankinis done in stripes of fun geometric prints. These prints are great options for teens because they are flattering for all body types, so they can help give a boost of confidence. Look for matching striped tankini tops and swim bottoms, or mix it up with solid bottoms and a fabulous striped or futuristic geometric top.
Ruching is another very flattering feature in swimwear. Teens can turn to ruched tankinis for a stylish look that has a touch of elegance. Ruching also adds a subtle pattern to the look of a tankini top that’s not over the top. Paired with a pair of hipster swim bottoms, it's the perfect study in modern sophistication for any teen.
Ruffle-front tankinis have a sweet look that is part of the enduring style scene. Paired with either a straight or ruffle-bottom style, this tankini with skirt style is an excellent style when she wants to dress up her swimwear a notch or two. Solid colors are beautiful with ruffle accents, but floral and trendy prints are also gorgeous choices.
As you’re helping your teen shop for tankinis, remember the other summer essential accessories she’ll need to have fun with family and friends this season. Extra-large canvas tote bags are perfect as beach bags, and flip-flops will keep her looking and feeling great. A great swim cover-up does double duty for functionality and style as well. If you’re looking for a gift idea, consider creating a fun basket with a tankini swimsuit plus all her summer favorites!
