Friday Frocks: The Perfect Coverup

By |May 24th, 2013|Friday Frocks|

beach hammock girlsAlmost as important as that bikini is how you choose to transport yourself from Point A to your final destination.  The coverup should be chicer than throwing on a pair of Soffe shorts and tank.  Put a little pride in your poolside presence by picking out a coverup that could easily be mistaken for a frock.  In my experience, poolside rose often leads to post beach cocktails and oysters and sometimes even a little bit of table dancing… but maybe that’s just me.  Anyway, just make sure your coverup continues to be sexy, not soggy after a long day of fun on in the sun.

Friday Frocks: Run For Cover

By |May 28th, 2011|Friday Frocks, Why Did You Wear That?|

The only thing more important at the beach than your swimsuit (and choice of juicy beach read) is your coverup.  Long gone are the days of hokey sarongs.  No need to channel Aunt Gertrude in a silly muumuu.  A coverup should be light, sexy, and able to transform from beachside to barside.  There are so many options now that I had a hard time narrowing them down to a few of my favorites.

1. Nightcap Clothing Jungle Lace Caftan Coverup, $320, 2. Anna Kosturova Magnolia Dress, $266, 3. Vitamin A Shantung Coverup, $88, 4. Beach Bunny I Want You To Want Me, $289, 5. Vix Solid Ana Short Dress, $124, 6. Letarte Popcorn Sleeveless Tunic, $198, 7. Mara Hoffman Chiffon Coverup, $308, 8. Zimmerman Copy Cat Silk Swing Dress, $345

Don’t forget some strappy sandals and my beach bag essentials to complete the look.
