Good news: We're almost to summer! And there's so much to look forward to that involves sun, sand and waves. To help you prepare, we're bringing you our Ultimate Summer Swim Guide. We enlisted the help of our on-air fashion expert and stylist, Jasmine Snow, who joins TODAY to share items to get you ready for the beach and pool. Our swim guide is full of editor-loved swimsuits, Travel Award-winning cover-ups and even a clever hair clip for comfortable lounging. Plus, we also have an exclusive 30% off code for a beloved and award-winning swimwear brand you'll want to take advantage of below.

Snow says it might feel a little early to shop for bathing suits, but now is actually the perfect time, so you can enjoy them all season long. She raves about tankinis: "It has all of that support of a one-piece that we love but the mobility of a two-piece." This option is another Shop TODAY favorite for its tummy-control design and coverage. The bottoms feature stylish ruching for a sculpted look, and the flowy top complements the silhouette. Plus, we love how many patterns and color options it comes in — over 20!

Snow calls these flat hair clips "genius for the beach or pool." Unlike a classic and chunky claw clip, this option lies flat against your head, allowing you to comfortably lounge and keep your hair back at the same time. "It's a great way to keep your hair out of your face on hot days and still look stylish," she adds.

When it comes to cover-ups, Snow says, "I love something that you can just throw on and go ... can act as a casual outfit." This one-and-done mini dress from Cupshe is one of those looks you can slip on at the pool, then wear to dinner or the bar. It has a slightly sheer fabric that's breezy and lightweight, and Snow says it has that "effortless resort vibe" at an affordable price of under $30.

This find from a Shop TODAY-favorite (and Travel Award winning) brand is loved for its compression fabric, which sculpts, supports and cinches at the waist to create an amazing silhouette. The Perfect Wrap One Piece is a bestseller for Summersalt that Snow says flatters every body type and "highlights all the right curves in the right places." With our exclusive code TODAY, you'll save 30% on this swimsuit now through May 11.

Getting sunburnt never fails to put a damper on your vacation. Be sure to pack this lightweight, breathable sun shirt on your next sunny trip, as it's designed to keep you protected from harmful UV rays, per the brand. Other key features include quick-dry and moisture-wicking materials, mesh armpits for breathability and thumbholes for extra coverage. Snow also raves about the material's "super-soft" feel and cooling benefits.

You don’t have to sacrifice style for a full coverage fit, according to Snow. This swimdress has built-in bottoms and a tie skirt that sits over top, giving it a “vintage glam” look, she notes. Ruffle sleeves and a plunging V-neck help add to its more fashionable features, along with the option to grab the style in one of 15 cute colors.

This mesh bag might be the perfect tote for carrying around your beach essentials. According to the brand, it's lightweight, quick-drying and durable. Plus, Snow notes that it’s "deceptively spacious," saying that it has enough room to fit towels, snacks, water bottles, sunscreen, even toys for the kids.

A roll-on applicator makes this sunscreen mess-free and easy to apply. It’s also TSA-approved and small enough to easily stow away in a toiletry bag for any upcoming summer vacations. Snow calls Sun Bum’s signature scent “vacation in a bottle,” noting that it’s “coconutty, warm and nostalgic,” unlike others that may give off a more chemical-like fragrance.

If your towels constantly slip and slide down your beach recliners or the rubbery chairs at waterparks, strap them into place with one of these Travel Award-winning towel bands, which stretch to fit over most beach chairs, according to the brand. Plus, they come with a storage pouch to make them easy to pack for a vacation, cruise, camping trip or any other outdoor adventure.
