5 Unconventional Ways To Cover Up Your Swimsuit

Summer is fast approaching and that means it's time to dust off your swimsuits and get ready to hit the beach or pool. Whether you enjoy wearing a swimsuit or are a bit self-conscious, having a cover up is an easy way to go directly from the water to other fun outdoor activities. Instead of buying a traditional cover up, give these 5 ideas a try over your swimsuit.

1. Shorts And A Tank Top

Your swimsuit top and bottom can double as undergarments with this easy go-to summer style. Simply pick your favorite pair of shorts and a matching tank top and wear them like you normally would. Exercise caution with jean shorts if your swimsuit is still damp. Denim material can take a long time to dry and feels pretty uncomfortable when it gets damp.

2. Sundress

Put those summer sundresses to good use by wearing them over your swimsuit. They're lightweight and breathable which will allow airflow around your entire body, drying your swimsuit in no time. It's also dressy enough to wear to a restaurant after the beach or casual enough to wear to a backyard barbecue.

3. Men's Dress Shirt

The shirt dress is a major fashion statement this season, and you can easily make your own by borrowing one of your partner's dress shirts. To achieve this look, the dress shirt must be oversized on you. There are so many ways to change up this look, from wearing it completely buttoned up or with a few buttons undone to cinching a belt around your waist.

4. Jumpsuit

Last year's hottest summer trend is still popping this summer. The jumpsuit looks great on every body shape and is an effortless way to look stylish while still being comfortable. You also don't need to worry about finding the perfect bra that doesn't peek out beneath the jumpsuit's shoulder straps because showing off your bathing suit straps is totally acceptable.

5. Scarf

You can turn your favorite lightweight scarf into a sarong with just a few twists and turns. Simply hold it straight out behind your back and wrap both ends around your waist, securing in a knot at one side.

All of these items are available on our website, in addition to traditional bathing suit cover ups. Hit the water this season in style with these tips.
