If pops of color are not to your liking when it comes to swimsuits, perhaps neutrals in black, white and even metallic gray are the perfect pieces for you.

 

Lifestyle and SM Woman shot in the very picturesque Pinagbuyutan island in El Nido, Palawan, to showcase some subtle but eye-catching pieces that can go beyond the summer months.

 

 

Simplicity is key

Sometimes it’s better to keep it simple, like this chic white bikini set. Just pair with a lace cover-up to make it stand out more.

 

 

Gray scale

Consider this corset-type swimsuit in light metallic gray that flatters and enhances one’s figure.

 

 

Elegant twist

A chic black halter top swimsuit is the beach equivalent of  the LBD.

 

 

In black and white

This trend is far from boring with this playful two-tone graphic black and white one-piece swimsuit.

 

 

Fringe frenzy

Instead of opting for a basic swimsuit,  go for a piece with unique details like this black bikini set with fringe.
