Find your new favorite swimsuit cover up:
This bright aqua blue set screams European vacation. If you have fancy lunch or dinner plans right after a day by the pool, this matching set looks elevated and can be dressed up with platform sandals and a fun bag. The fabric is sheer enough to let your bathing suit peak through, but will keep your arms and legs covered if you got a little too much sun during the day.
You can't go wrong with a matching linen set as your go-to summer beach cover-up. It keeps you cool, but you're covered up enough for whatever's on your itinerary. If you're trying to pack on the lighter side, this set doubles as a daytime outfit for afternoons away from the water, too.
My favorite thing about this oversized two-piece set: the price tag. It's affordable and won't be going out of style anytime soon. The casual and versatile set is available in over a dozen colors.
Another Amazon find we're loving is this crotchet set that features a high-waisted midi skirt and tank top. Dress this one up with a pair of sandals or low heels for an outdoor lunch by the pool.
For a little extra sun protection, throw on this lightweight jumpsuit with flowy linen pants. It's feminine and cute while still keeping you comfortable on a long, hot day.
If throwing on a breathable beach pant is more your vibe, a style like this pair from J.Crew is easy to rewear again and again. Available in sizes ranging from XXS to 3XL, these slightly sheer cotton-blend pants are flattering on every body type.
These high-waisted pants work just as well over your bathing suit as they do with a tank top and comfortable walking shoes for a day spent shopping for souvenirs. They're comfortable, breathable, and the price tag is nice, too.
Buck Mason makes some of the best elevated basics, and these new linen pants are no exception. If you're only packing one pair of pants on your next beach vacation, let it be these.
My personal favorite beach cover-up: A simple sarong. A mesh one like this is ultra-lightweight and takes up virtually no packing room—just fold it up tightly and tuck it away
