This laidback, beachy midi dress by Wander Agio is a no-brainer for seaside sophistication. The button-down style has a casual vibe but it will elevate any basic bikini in an instant. It looks like cotton from the picture, but customers noted that it was actually 100% polyester, which means it’s quick-drying and holds fewer wrinkles off the beach. One shopper commented that it was “inexpensive yet looks and fits like quality,” while another wrote that they “recently wore this on a trip with my husband to the BVI” and “got so many compliments,” raving, “It’s the perfect cover up. Buy it if it’s still available. The buttons and belt allow for various styling options.”

This Wander Ago short-sleeved beach cover-up is made from a netted knit, but it’s not sweaty in the slightest. Here’s a confirmation: “I live in Florida, where we spend 8-10 months in bathing suits. This is the cutest most functional coverup I own. It is so soft — like a sweater — but very lightweight,” one shopper explained. The drop waist attaches to a sassy mini skirt with a V-neck that’s not too deep. You could even pair this with a matching bodysuit and wear it out on the town on balmy nights.

Looking for a one-piece suit that isn’t too mumsy? CUPSHE’s ruffled swimsuit might just be the one you’ve been searching for. “I think those birds or mice or whatever from Cinderella created it just for me,” one customer gushed. It has a plunging neckline with eye-catching ruffles (so you might say hello to some cleavage) with a lace-up and cut-out back that are both equally striking. Curious about how the bottom fits? It’s high-cut and cheeky, meaning your legs will look miles long. Plus, a ruched midsection adds texture.

Imagine this long, beachy cover-up flowing gracefully in the wind on a sunny seaside excursion. Gorgeous, right? Crafted from a breathable rayon and polyester blend, it has an open-front cardigan silhouette that’s easy to throw over your bikini — and has delicate ties on the crochet waist for a little modesty when grabbing a drink or for bathroom runs. “Covers without feeling too covered up. I used it for my trip to Cancún but I’ll definitely keep using for future beach trips,” one shopper wrote, noting that it laundered well: “I washed it in a cold cycle and hung dry. It’s ready for its next outing!”

In my opinion, lounge shorts plus leopard print equals a winning and unexpected combination. Even better? You can throw on these Kafeimali’s drawstring shorts for so many occasions, from the beach to hiking trips to running morning errands — just add a crop top and sneaks. The cotton-blended bottoms have pockets, too, so you can skip a shoulder bag, if desired. “They are silky smooth, very comfortable especially in hot weather,” one shopper confirmed.

These WDIRARA bottoms will become your #1 summer staple thanks to the airy thigh-high slits and comfortable elasticized waist.

Sewn from a super-stretchy chinlon and spandex blend, this CUPSHE one-piece is a head-turner without revealing too much skin. It works wonders for bigger busts, too. “I think this suit works so well because the straps are adjustable like a bra,” one customer pointed out, adding that “once adjusted, this suit fits like a dream [...] and still gives modest coverage to my backside.” One major highlight? The lovely lace-trimmed plunging neckline hints at a little cleavage while those criss-cross straps prevent wardrobe malfunctions.

Love multipurpose cover-ups but want a mini dress option? Ekouaer’s V-neck tunic could be the answer.

Curious about the material’s texture? Here’s the lowdown: “Very comfortable and silky on the skin,” one reviewer remarked. Another agreed, saying it’s a “super soft satiny material” equivalent to pajamas. Choose any color in the rainbow or opt for a tie dye or tropical print.

An oversized T-shirt sometimes make the best cover-ups and this IN'VOLAND tee is totally on-theme. Not only does its “take me to the beach” slogan ring true, but the fringed hem and cutout shoulders beat the old, worn-out T-shirt already in your drawer. Plus, it’s made from a poly-spandex blend, so it won’t wrinkle or fade in the sun like cotton. “I love this top. It's comfortable, it is not clingy. And it's really cute.

Attention, all my summer lovers: Whether you’re fresh off the sand or lounging by the pool, this short-sleeved duster is an absolute winner for your upcoming vacation plans. Here’s the 411: It has a subtle open front that can be tied in the middle for some modesty, along with a longer hemline in that back that gives a train-like effect (without looking too dramatic, of course). “The fabric is lightweight but not too sheer, and I haven't had issues with it going static cling-y on me so far,” one customer revealed. Loving it? This style comes in classic nautical stripes (as shown) along with tropical leaf prints and fun tie-dyes.

You get a cute open-back look with side slivers carved out at the waist without exposing your entire belly. The deets don’t stop there, people: There is a zip-up racerback that’s so freaking cute — not to mention, the high-waisted bottoms have an adorable sash tie?! I might have frantically added this one to my cart mid-sentence. “Absolutely beautiful. I love the gold zipper detail. The green is even more vibrant in person,” a shopper praised, with a minor note that another reviewer echoed: “My reason for not giving it a full 5 stars is the zipper. I couldn’t really do it without help...However, for the price I still feel like this is a great suit and would consider purchasing in a different color or print!”

Are you a whimsical dresser? Feast your eyes upon this AusLook open-back cover-up for your Anthropologie-inspired clothing fix. With this baby, you get handmade crochet with colorful tassels and an irregular hemline? Insert one heart-eyes emoji here, please and thank you. It’s made from a polyester-acrylic blend that feels similar to linen on the skin — except it looks a lot better because it won’t become as wrinkled if it gets wet. Pair it with some bike shorts and run errands in it — why not? “This gives me an instant outfit for the beach, barbecues, parties, vacations, shopping, out to dinner or lunch, and more,” as one shopper pointed out.

Having pieces in your wardrobe that can be worn many different ways always comes in handy, right? Right. That’s why this SHU-SHI tassel-trimmed sarong is a worthwhile purchase. It can be worn as a pareo skirt as well as a halter top, one-shouldered look, or tube dress. That’s not all: “I roll it up, put it in my purse or daypack and have used it to cover my shoulders when visiting the Western Wall in Jerusalem, to cover my head when visiting Temples and Mosques, and have wrapped it around my waist as a skirt in Thailand and Turkey in places where a long skirt was required,” one shopper wrote of its surprising usefulness.

Sometimes, even a high-waisted full bottom just isn’t enough coverage, especially if you’re active on the water. I totally get it. That’s why Romwe created this two-piece swimsuit with cutie shorts as an alternative. (You love to see it!) One shopper commented that the bottoms “hold you in without being uncomfortable,” while the top is a spaghetti strap tank with a sweet ruffle and corset lacing at the bust.

Get ready to feel like a movie star in Wander Agio’s cover-up dress. Constructed with a knit polyester that’s not too heavy, the maxi dress is form-fitting throughout the body and hugs your shape to perfection. Meanwhile, long lantern sleeves help to balance out the heat of the thigh-high slit. Ready for some leg action, anyone? Seriously, imagine this thing with oversized sunnies and wedge heels in the south of France. Closer to home, you might make an appearance at your local beach club and it’ll look equally incredible there too. “It had me slaying on my vacation,” one shopper bragged.

Here’s an understated tassel cover-up option for minimalist aesthetics. It’s made with a chiffon fabric that’s sheer (not see-through, though) so your swimsuit will still show a bit underneath. The neckline can be worn off the shoulder as well, depending on your personal style that day. The best part? A lot of reviewers say that it’s wrinkle-resistant, with one person writing, “Packed in suitcase and did not wrinkle.” Throw it in your beach bag, and when you’re ready to don it, you’ll be looking coastal-chic.

Sure, Tempt Me’s high-neck swimsuit is on the conservative side, but it still packs details that offer a little welcome appeal. There are mesh panels along the bust and back (that flashes some cleavage, but shouldn’t be too much), along with a narrow cut-out centered over the shoulder blades. The padded push-up bra adds shape, and there’s even a bow design underneath that hugs your waist. Hello, hotness. Besides that, this thing provides coverage and quality — and is on par with pricier styles. It’s “like a $100 bathing suit,” one shopper swore.

Whether you’re doing water sports or lounging in the pool, this half-zip rash guard suit is an amazing option for scorching days. The super-stretchy material has built-in UPF 50+ sun protection, has water-shedding capabilities, and dries in a snap. The shirred sides feature an adjustable drawstring that can be made shorter or longer depending on your height. “I took up kayaking with a tiny group of friends, as it was a nice way to still social distance but allow us to get out and do something. This shirt protected my overly sensitive skin from the sun during these whole day excursions,” one shopper wrote.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: You don’t have to wear a skimpy string bikini or some intricate Kylie Jenner-esque cut-out monokini to look hot. (But by all means, do you!) To my point, however: Tempt Me’s one-piece swimmie proves as much. It has a peek-a-boo moment, but it’s not over the top. Plus, there is a full-coverage bottom, supportive shirring on the sides, and a vintage-inspired tie-knot top — you’re literally set. “This is probably the best fitting bathing suit I’ve had in my adult life,” one customer raved. Another wrote: “I find it hard to find a one piece bathing suit that covers what I want it to cover and also has the wow factor but this one checks the boxes.”

No doubt, you’ll be sizzling in Yonique’s two-piece swimsuit set. The sweetheart top has a removable push-up padded bra that lifts and shapes like no other — with a cute bow and tiny cut-out details (for some much-needed airflow, I might add). Now, let’s discuss the bottoms: They a good substitute if you want a full-coverage fell without the high-waisted fit. The thick straps can be hiked up around your waist to create a ‘90s effect. “Red hot bikini! Wasn’t sure how I would like the split cross straps on bottoms, but they are so comfortable. Top fit perfect too with just right padding,” one customer wrote.

How pretty and functional is this Ekouaer cover-up? The ruffled hem and sleeves are charming additions to the otherwise laidback tunic silhouette — with an open tie back that couldn’t be prettier. The rayon blend is soft and ultra breathable with no sheerness in sight. “Loved that the material wasn't completely see-through yet not very heavy. It was the perfect length to be modest and loose enough to be comfy and not ridiculously baggy,” as one customer noted. Another seconded that it was “just thin enough to feel a breeze and not make me hot, but also thick enough to feel like I wasn't in only my swimsuit.” Some of the colorways even have a lace neckline for a little something extra.

Got curves? Available in sizes up to 4X, Yskkt’s cut-out tank monokini is a fan favorite. First off, don’t be intimated by the strappy sides.

So, this is gorgeous. Get ready to look absolutely angelic in this CUPSHE tassel slip dress that feels like you’re not wearing anything at all — and that’s the point, folks. I would definitely recommend you hand-wash this cotton-acrylic piece so the tasseled fringe doesn’t get absurdly tangled up — or, worse, ruined.

Just a hunch: You’re going to be snapping selfies left and right in this Romwe mesh bikini set — and the likes and comments will pour in. The Y2K-inspired beach outfit comes with a string triangle top, thong bottom, and ruched drawstring mini skirt. (Who’s ready to book a flight to Miami?) “I love the thong bottoms aren't your traditional thong, it’s about 3 inches thicker so I don't have to worry about it riding up,” one customer added.

Whether you’re heading to Palm Beach or Cape Cod, Just Love’s A-line dress is just posh enough — without feeling too stuffy.

The ‘90s called — and this FAFOFA bikini answered. Fabricated from a stretchy nylon and spandex material that’s double-lined for total opacity even in the water, the trendy top comes with a graphic cut-out on the single shoulder in a silhouette that’s having a major moment. The bottoms are the most magical cut. Think: high-cut and high-waisted. Have a bigger bust? This bikini will work for you, too. It “provides a nice amount of [...] support for my ladies,” one customer noted in the reviews. The only downside? The tan lines — but it’s a small price to pay for this much style.

My favorite aspect about this Hanna Nikole chiffon sarong? That’s easy — you can also wear the maxi skirt as a tube dress depending on your vibe that day. If you want a lot of coverage, though, this might not be for you, as the tie waist is open in the front. If that doesn’t bother you and you want to feel like a heavenly goddess, then you might want to go grab your credit card ASAP. One reviewer called this “big girl approved” while another wrote that they “felt like a model!”

Here’s a vintage-inspired halter by Yonique that’s glam yet totally chill somehow. That’s because it has the sweetheart neckline with a hint of cleavage, but the rest of the one-piece leaves more to the imagination. Also, who doesn’t love a little ruching to spice things up? “I’m always looking for a cute swimsuit that doesn’t look like I’m wearing a dress or something an 80yo would wear,” one reviewer remarked. “This suit makes me feel pulled in and put together, covered but not too covered.”

This PRETTYGARDEN two-piece is one of those bathing suits that seems difficult to wear, but it really isn’t. Like, sure, off-the-shoulder pieces are statements and can be troublesome for larger cup sizes, but this tie front one can transform into a halter for some support. The high-waisted bottoms definitely show some cheek, but take this opportunity to tan your booty — why not? “Sis. Get this swim suit..! Don’t even play!! I’m really glad that the material is not cheap .. I look good and you can too,” one passionate shopper urged.
