I splashed over £700 Kim Kardashian’s Skims swimwear line to see if it’s worth the hype – some of it definitely wasn’t
FASHION fan Roksana Janiszewska, better known online as Roxxsaurus, recently put Kim Kardashian’s new Skims swimwear line to the test.
The Youtuber splashed out £786 on various bikini’s and swimsuits, and it’s safe to say some where definitely better than others.

After seeing Kim rocking the looks on Instagram, Roksana knew she had to place an order to see if range lived up to the hype.
“I feel like I got a little bit of everything, they had so many cute new styles so I just had to make a splurge,” she said.
She tried on a hot pink bikini set in a thick scuba material and was immediately impressed by the quality, even though the set cost £126 altogether.
“This is such nice fabric, it feels really nice on the skin and it’s very comfortable to wear,” the fashion fan explained in the YouTube video.
The only problem with the set was down to the awkward drawstrings on the bottoms, which poked out weirdly but also looked wrong when she tucked them in.
Next up, she tried on a zip-up one piece in electric blue with a high neck, which set her back a whopping £108.
Despite buying her regular size, the swimsuit was way too small for Roksana and it cut into her hips making it a bit too uncomfortable.
Overall, she was impressed with the material and look of the trendy swimsuit though and said she’d wear it to the beach if it was in her right size.
The nude bikini with fold over shaping bottoms was almost a winner, but despite loving the shape of the set, the fact the bikini top had no padding was a let down.
Roksana also said she wished she bought the high-waisted version of the matching bottoms because she found the low-rise to sit weirdly on her hips.
She loved the white swimsuit she bagged for her upcoming destination wedding though, even though it cost £108.
She said: “I actually feel like this might be my favourite swimsuit I’ve ever tried from Skims.”
“I really love the square neckline and the straps feel very supportive,” she continued.
Finally, she tried on another zip-up option, this time the grey scoop neck swimsuit for £98.
The material seemed a lot thinner than the other pieces from the line.
“The fabric is very unforgiving, it’s the kind of swimwear fabric that’s just so thing that you can see everything underneath,” she said.
The zipper seam was also visible through the thin fabric, which wasn’t ideal for the fashion fan either.
