Kendall Jenner celebrated Cinco de Mayo [1] with a bikini selfie, and we took note, since we're currently interested in updating our swim drawer. The 25-year-old supermodel is one of the many models, celebs, and influencers [2] we follow to introduce us to new brands [3] and swimwear trends [4] each season.
Kendall's choice of a yellow and blue Hawaiian print from Australian label Bāmba Swim [5] was the perfect foundation to a look chock-full of colourful accessories. Kendall added a rainbow beaded body chain from Posh and Pearls [6] to match her String Ting [7] wristlet phone strap and a Gladys Tamez Millinery [8] hat, aptly called the "Kenny." She selected ruched, high-leg bottoms [9] from Bāmba rather than the obligatory G-string cut that her triangle Malibu top is shown with on the site. The full set retails for $122 and just like the rest of Kendall's poolside accoutrements is still available to shop.
If you'd rather let yourself be inspired by the hibiscus flowers on her suit, the straw hat, or Kendall's rainbow jewels, but go your own way when it comes to shopping these essentials, we found some alternatives for you after the jump — just in case you need some ideas for those upcoming mirror selfies.
