With all this time spent at home in sweatpants and old tees, it’ll probably be a nice change of pace to zhuzh up your swimsuit and lounge around in an actually nice-looking cover-up
Photo-Illustration: retailers Since spending the day at the beach seems to be one of the few reasonable, socially distant activities to do this summer, you might as well take advantage of it before the season changes. We’ve written about lots of beach essentials before — even the best bathing suits to buy — but you’re also going to need something to actually wear to the beach.
$60 at Alpine Butterfly Swim Buy Bikini Swims Festival Stars Mesh Dress $33 $63 now 48% off $33 A few weeks ago, Rachel Mohler Roberts, VP of customer success at Declare, a content platform and membership network for women, posted a photo of herself on Instagram in a sheer, star-printed cover-up and received dozens of compliments and messages.
$100 at Hill House Home Buy L.L.Bean Stretch Swim Cover-Up, Splitneck Tunic From $40 From $40 Photo: retailer Strategist intern Aisha Rickford always goes for “durable, quality closet staples” that can be used for more than one purpose. That’s why she recommends this simple, lightweight tunic from L.L. Bean, which she says is “built to last for seasons” and, because it “doubles as a t-shirt dress, it’s perfect for the beach and non-beach days alike.
$78 at Revolve Clothing Buy Kimonos and Robes ASOS Curve Maxi Beach Kimono With Exaggerated Sleeves $48 $48 “ASOS is always my go-to for affordable and amazing plus-size pieces,” says Sims. It goes up to a size 26, and thanks to its flowy style and accentuated waist, “Lots of babes can buy it and feel sexy and confident in it.” Sims is mostly drawn to the exaggerated ruffle sleeve because it makes the kimono a little more exciting than just a straight sleeve.
Myra Swim The Xander Shirt in Army $140 $140 Morinia says there’s really no “clothing item more versatile than a button-up shirt,” and she calls this one from Myra Swim “subtle yet sexy, even if the shirt is buttoned all the way up” because it’s slightly sheer, which allows your swimsuit to show through a bit. She also loves an oversized fit, and this top takes it to the next level by adding an “oversized pocket and larger wrist cuffs,” making it “much more elevated,” as Morinia puts it.
