The Great Cover-up

Cover-ups are beach fashion's unsung hero. They conceal all the right places and give just a hint at what is below. The right cover-up can carry you from street to beach in style.  We are super excited about the cover-ups designers are coming out with this season. Here are a few favorites:


1. LSpace Ave Poncho
Ponchos back with a bang, they were all over the Fall 2011 and Spring 2012 runways at shows like Alexander Wang. We love how LSpace has brought this trend into beachwear. The fringe along the hem and sleeves adds another stylish element to this design. We might even try wearing this one off the beach.

2.  LSpace Camila Dress - 
This beautiful maxi cover-up makes us swoon. The ling slit down the middle creates a long line that is slimming and very glamorous. What's even better is that it is done in a bright, girly floral, bringing a fresh energy to this sexy beach casual.

3. Pily Q Love You Dress
This is hands-down the perfect baby doll cover-up. It is so lovely in person with lots of pretty details in the fabric and construction that make the quality show through. It comes in black and white and is lined so it can easily be worn as a dress too.

 

4.Despi Renaiscence Aguamarine Cover-up

Cotton eyelet cover-ups are always feminine and comfy to slip on. The Renaiscence cover-up comes in this right teal shade and crisp white. The focal point is the zig-zag lace hemline.

5. Despi Beijing Cover-up

You don't need to bare it all to transmit sex appeal. This flowy blue tunic is a sheer fabric will leave you feeling wrapped in glamour. We can bet that this will look great on a range of body types too.

One is never enough get a cover-up for every occasion. See our new 2012 cover-ups from brands like Despi, LSpace, PilyQ and more here.
