Kylie Jenner Poses In A Black & White Polka Dot Bikini Top With Matching Pants

The reality star and beauty mogul has been posting a ton of bikini photos this summer, not only flaunting her iconic hourglass figure but also showing off some of her creative and favorite styles. She spent a lot of time enjoying an Italian vacation this summer, and posted numerous photos of herself in new bathing suits. However, her polka dot look really caught the eye of fashion enthusiasts.

 

In one Italy vacation post, the billionaire wrote she was having a "polka dot summer," and shared pictures of her posing in a black and white bikini top, which she coordinated with matching wide leg polka dot pants, and even a matching tote bag. It was a super fun matching outfit that is perfect for lounging around a pool or going for a walk in a beachy town.

 

In addition to her look on Instagram, in the latest swimwear collaboration with Frankies Bikinis for her clothing brand, Khy, the 27-year-old recently released several bikinis and bathing suits that are available in a trendy polka dotted print.

Kaia Gerber Wears A Tiny Polka Dot Bikini For Her Instagram Story

Kaia, who, aside from being a model and actress, is a notorious 'nepo baby' born to iconic supermodel Cindy Crawford, is also embracing the polka dot bikini trend this summer.

 

On her Instagram story, she recently posted a sultry close-up photo of herself wearing a delicate polka dot bikini from the Malibu brand Mystos, whom she tagged in her caption. The tiny bikini is strapless and white with teeny tiny red polka dots and accents, including some string in the middle, which could be tied into a bow, as the American Horror Story actress did in her photo. Although she chose to pair her bikini top with a darker pair of bottoms, according to the swimwear brand, they come with matching boy shorty style bottoms.

 

The tone of the bikini complimented Kaia's tanned skin, and it's a great look for those who can't stand bathing suit strap tan lines. While it's a fairly simple pattern, the bikini top offers a fun little twist to the usual polka dot pattern.
