Splurge VS Steal: Zimmermann Bikini

splurge: Zimmermann vs steal: Target.

In light of this week’s Miami Mercedes-Benz Swim Fashion Week, today’s Splurge vs Steal is all about the bikini! Aside from whatever many people think of Target and their bikinis, I love them! They’re very affordable and up to the current trends… As you can see.

Now, are the Target bottoms more “full coverage” than most popular (expensive) brands? Yes, that’s why most of us women are willing to spend a little more cash to make sure our back end looks on point. But I’ve noticed that they’ve gotten a lot better with that. I’ve been able to find a few that don’t look like I’m wearing a diaper or make my butt disappear.

Living in a beachy city, you can never go wrong with “too many” bathing suits. So it’s a winning steal for me!

Splurge VS Steal: Christian Louboutin & Steve Madden

splurge vs steal: Steve Madden SHOWTIME

I’m most familiar with the Louboutin pair thanks to the Kardashian girls. I loved the chunky platform but not the $600+ price. As most of you know by now, I went on my usual hunt. I found a similar pair from Steve Madden, but something in me wasn’t 100% satisfied. So I continued to search, and here my friends Forever 21 won my heart over!

They just arrived in the mail and they’re gorgeous! Can’t wait to wear them out. Keep your eyes posted, they’ll be making their appearance pretty soon.
