National Bikini Day is perfect time to shop for new swimwear! In honor of the unofficial holiday, celebrated every year on July 5, we rounded up a collection of nine affordable bikinis to shop for summer.
The modern two-piece bikini was first introduced in July 1946 by French designers and competitors Jacques Heim and Louis Réard.

Since then, the bikini has grown to become one of the most popular (if not the most popular) kind of swimwear.
