By this time in the spring, many have been over the different types of bathing suits, sandals and tote bags for summer. Most have figured out what style will emphasize their small bust, or create those desired curves. Many have a designated beach bag, shopping tote bag and evening clutch. The only article of clothing that hasn’t been covered is what to wear when shorts are too much, a dress is too nice and just a tank top isn’t enough. Beach cover-ups, post-tanning cover-ups and summer loungewear that won’t make you boil is the current must have convo.
Scroll through the below list to find what works for you when your skin has had enough of that eighty-five degree sun.
Victoria’s Secret Linen Beaded Cover-Up Sweater.
This is a good choice if you’re going for a walk a little farther down the beach and don’t feel like being completely exposed to onlookers. Not everyone can have the abs of Adriana Lima.

Anthropologie Offshore Caftan
A more feminine alternative to the beaded cover-up. Nice for the same reason too, it’s simple and takes up almost no room in your chosen beach tote.

Anthropologie Long Weekend Romper
Perfect for exactly how it sounds. Rompers aren’t exactly easy for bringing to the beach, due to the inevitable inconveniences that arise. But they are great for when you plan on beaching it in the afternoon, and need something cute to wear when you’re out for frappuccinos in the morning.

Victoria’s Secret Wrap Cover-Up
A little more conservative, yet the perfect answer when you need easy beach style.

Victoria’s Secret Draped Cover-Up Dress
Think of this as the Met Gala cover-up. The Victoria Beckham cover-up. The simplest of perfect beach cover-ups.

Forever 21 Abstract Zigzag Maxi
You know everyone needs at least one glorious maxi dress for those beach days.
