Swimwear 101: Cover-Ups


Once you've found the perfect swimsuit that has you throwing caution to the wind and actually wanting to go out half naked in public, it's time to shop for the swimsuit cover-up.  They are, just like their name suggests, a way to cover up your newly sun-kissed skin.  I personally love a cute cover-up because they not only protect me from getting burned, they are what make a poolside outfit.  And let's be honest, the only time I actually want to see my thighs is while slathering them in sunscreen on my lounge chair.  We've come a long way from the muumuu as far as style.

Is it wrong that I'd like to wear most of these as dresses?

No way is that wrong. In the right place, right time, I'd be sporting any one of these little white numbers as a dress with espadrille sandals.
