Top 5 Affordable Swimsuit Cover-Ups
Written by Project Inspired | July 24, 2014
Heading to the beach or pool anytime soon? As you know all too well, figuring out what to wear over your bathing suit as you travel to the beach or pool can be a real pain. Denim is awful when wet…a regular ol’ dress is comfy, but could get unnecessarily dirty or wet…and now we’re just starting to run out of options. That’s why—even though it feels like just one more thing to buy—it’s great to invest in a cover-up you can throw on over your suit. You want something classic that won’t go out of style (saves you from having to buy a new one each year) and is comfy, cute and affordable. Find the perfect cover-up and you’ll never spend time searching for something to wear to the pool again. With a bathing suit and cover-up on, you’re good to go! Now you just need sunscreen and a towel.
Here are six of our favorite finds for cover-ups:
We love this spin on a classic black maxi, which features a fun sheer bottom half. (Target, $23)
This long-sleeve cover-up has a split neckline with eyelet detailing. It’s made of a soft, lightweight cotton gauze. (Old Navy, $17)
The crochet look is big for summer, so get in the spirit with this classic maxi style. This one has a U-neckline with cap sleeves. (Target, $20)
Cover up in this oh-so-soft jersey dress that features contrast piping at the neckline. (Delia’s, $20)
Check out this cute woven cover-up featuring an all-over chevron print and crochet racerback panel. (Forever 21, $15)
Girls, what do you wear over your bathing suit to go to the beach or pool? And do you have any more beach trips planned this summer?

Are cover ups supposed to be taken off before swimming, or can it be worn in the pool?

You take it off before going in the water 🙂 You could get in with it I guess… but it would sorta be like going in with your clothes!!
