Need help choosing a beach cover up

  • Hey Ladies

    I'm going to Puerto Rico with my family and I need a beach cover up. Which one do you like best?

    The purple one is technically a dress, not a cover up, but I tried it anyway.
  • I like the first two best. You can wear them as dresses if you're heading out right after swimming/sunning.
  • The second one all the way!!!
  • The first and second one are really cute, though the first one looks like it would be more suited for hot weather and, well, swimming.
  • I'd go for the first 1 too! Looks great.
  • number 1 looks beachy
  • I would do number one.

    Have you ever considered a Sarong style?
  • Thanks! Tomorrow I'm going to get number one.
  • I like #2 because it lends itself to being a casual dress more easily than the other two. Which makes it a 2-fer-1. Which makes it lighter packing when traveling. Which is a bonus to me because I like packing light!

    The others are cute, but def saying "I'm a coverup for the beach!" and aren't as flexible. Which is fine if you have the suitcase space. But if suitcase weight is a concern... I'd go #2, and consider as many flex pieces possible to lighten up the suitcase.

  • I love the first one and you look really cute in it!
  • I like the first one, but I'm leaning towards the second, only for the "lighter packing" like astrophe said.

    GL!

    And you look fab!
  • I always put a summer dress over for a cover up. Of course the flip side of that is that your suit needs to be dry to put the dress back over it or a material that dries fast.

    I hate beach coverups for the most part. The options are usually pretty uninspiring to me for some reason.
  • the 2nd one gets my vote! Soooo cute!!
  • I like the first 2, also.

    I say go for #1 if you want to look super beachy and casual, and are OK with everyone you see knowing you're wearing your swimsuit.

    Pick #2 if you want to hide the suit more, and go out in public incognito.

    If they were cheap enough (and you had enough room in the suitcase), I'd buy both!
  • I love the first two beach cover up.
