You'll Want To Plan A Beach Trip Just To Show Off These Super Stylish Cover-Ups

It's hard to nail down the best part of a good beach trip or pool party—whether you're all about reading a book while soaking up some vitamin D, playing some sand volleyball, getting in to water sports, or just sipping a marg and listening to some tunes, nothing sets the mood for a good beach or pool day like a swimwear look complete with a cute bathing suit and stylish cover-up. And, every summer wardrobe needs at least a few of them to pair with each of your hottest outdoor looks.

You'll want a comfy, airy jumpsuit for times you want more coverage and are going for a more cozy vibe, and then a sexy slip that doubles as lingerie for some fun Insta-worthy photoshoots. And, of course, no cover-up stash is complete without an essential oversized t-shirt or a terry-cloth romper. There are even bold, fashionable options like sheer, glittery pants and vintage crocheted dresses (major '70s vibes!).

A good bathing suit cover-up is a versatile and a fun way to dress-up any beachy look (consider it the ultimate poolside accessory in addition to your sunnies). It's also got to be functional—meaning it'll be lightweight, comfortable, and cater to your lifestyle whether you're looking for something that's purely stylish, that you could work out in, or that you could easily wear out and about off the sand, too.
