Stylish and Functional Swimwear Cover-Ups

Swimwear cover-ups are almost an essential part of any beach or pool outing. They are stylish and chic and give you an added layer of concealment and sun protection while outside of the water. They also make going from the beach or pool to the store for a quick snack possible without having to change. Below are some great cover-up options for your next day at the pool or beach.

Buying a Swimwear Cover-Up

Choosing the right bathing suit cover-up comes down to function and your personal style!

• Just for You: Ultimately, a cover-up should make you feel comfortable and happy! If you want more coverage, go for something with sleeves, more length, or more opaque fabric. If you want to show more skin or have good airflow to dry your bathing suit underneath, go for a lighter and more sheer fabric, a shorter length, or something more open. Your ideal cover-up will fit your needs and preferences.
• Comfortable: Comfort is key! A cover-up should offer just enough concealment that you can wear it how you like and where you like without fidgeting and fussing over it. You want to be able to lounge around and enjoy yourself while wearing your cover-up.
• Length: There is a wide range of lengths when it comes to cover-ups, from showing off your legs to barely showing your feet. Choose whichever length makes you most comfortable.
