COURTESY
Hot take: a good beach cover-up is better than a swimsuit. Hear us out. Whether you choose a classic kaftan or an on-trend mini skirt, a cover-up is an essential item that acts as the workhorse of the poolside selfie. The cover-up is to summer what the trench coat is to fall. It’s all about layers, people! The humble cover-up complements your bikini while providing added sun coverage, and most importantly, it allows you to be extra at the beach. Ahead, 30 shoppable reasons why cover-ups supersede bathing suits (and not a pair of denim cut-offs in sight!).
