Summer Must Have: Cover-Ups

Cover-ups are a summer necessity for every woman who owns a swimsuit. For one, cover-ups are more fashionable than wrapping a towel around you. Cover-ups functions as instant looks as well. Great transition pieces from the beach to an early evening luau or a seaside soiree. A few points to consider when shopping for a cover up:

• Mix it up. Try not to match your cover-up with your swimsuit. Pattern or print suit, opt for plain, solid cover-up and vice-versa. By doing so, your look becomes visually pleasing. Not to busy and not to blah.
• Flattering. Don't take cover-ups literally. Choose one that accentuates your body. Look for a sexy yet chic silhouette. Avoid mumus!
• Priced just right. If it is priced over $200.00, that's a bit to much. Try to stay under a $100.00. Juicy Couture offers fabulous cover-ups under $100.00 But if you have the budget for a designer cover-up, there are Marc by Marc Jacobs pieces that are priced under $200.00!
• Comfort. Look for lightweight fabrics that breath.
• Style. Wear one that makes you feel and look good. Because at the end of the day that is what counts!
