I like cover-ups on the beach. I feel pretty in a floaty cover-up, plus I feel more confident when I walk down the beach and a good cover-up can serve as an outfit at a lot of beachside shacks. Cover-ups are stylish, after all, and they protect you from getting too much sun, which is always good. Basically, every sunbathing beauty and poolside cutie needs a cover-up. Besides, looking at these will keep you dreaming of summer. It's so close!
It's elegant, yet bold. Love that color, too!
Simple, chic, and lightweight – this one hits the trifecta of perfection!
Something vivid and trendy like this is an ideal complement to a neutral, solid-colored swimsuit.
Off the shoulder styles are on trend right now, so there's no reason it shouldn't extend to your summer attire. A sweater like this is perfect for beaches on the east coast – they stay fairly chilly until one perfect day in the middle of July.
Because they are gorgeous. That is a statement.
Simple, stunning, and sleek, it does double-duty as a lovely summer outfit.
Gorgeous colors and I adore that print!
Now that is a cover-up. That lace is beautiful.
There's something a little '60s about this. Love it!
I think this cover-up might actually make you look taller if you wear it. I'm all about that.
Scarves are versatile, after all.
This is casual like a tee shirt, but it's all about that open back.
Palm trees are always a popular look on the beach. This is a bit vintage, though, what with the color palette and the fringe. I kind of want it.
If it's light, flattering, comfortable, and easy to slip in and out of, why not?
How cute is this cover-up? Those pom-poms!
White is a wonderful color to wear in the hot weather, which makes this cover-up work even though it's long sleeved and ankle length. The lace doesn't hurt, either – gorgeous!
There's something a little vintage-inspired about this, as well, and that's such a pretty blue for the beach!
Do you wear a cover-up or do you prefer to let your swimwear shine?
