Stylish Beach Cover-ups
- Fashion
- March 15, 2025

Getting ready for summer always involves looking for a beach cover-up that is stylish and tasteful. We ask a lot of our beach cover-ups. A beach cover-up has to provide coverage for our tender skin, take us from the beach to pool to a restaurant and look breezy and fashionable. That’s a lot- we know. That’s why today we have gathered some of our favorites to share and hope this helps with your search.
Stylish Beach Cover-Ups
Right now many stores have a large inventory of beautiful and elegant swimsuit cover-ups, beach dresses and much more. Let’s check out the stylish shorter versions.
Stylish Beach Cover-Ups Knee Length Dress
Tommy Bahama Fiesta Floral Coverup Shirt
The Fiesta Floral Coverup Shirt is a lightweight, long sleeve coverup. It has side pockets and could also be worn as a dress. Bev just bought this during the Tommy Bahama Friend’s and family- 25% off til March 16th.
Tommy Bahama Boyfriend Beach Shirt
The Boyfriend Beach Shirt is one of Bev’s favorites. It’s long sleeved and so lightweight and quick drying. It is great for travel and any vacation.
Mint Velvet Cream Crochet Beach CoverUp
The Mint Velvet Cream Crochet Beach Cover Up is a beautiful swim cover. In cream, this looks great with just about any swimsuit. The perfect resort look.
Land’s End Open Knit CoverUp
The Land’s End Open Knit Cover Up is a less expensive version of the knit cover up. It is in cream and is just as versatile as the Mint Velvet swim cover.
Mersea Cotton Coverup Embroidered Dress
The Mersea Cotton Coverup Embroidered Dress is stylish and can be worn buttoned up, open or tied at the waist. It also comes in 4 colors and the embroidered details elevate this look.
Vix Perola Knot CoverUp
The Vix Perola Knot Cover Up is an elegant 3/4 flowy sleeve, front knot cover up. We really like this one and it comes in five colors.
Stylish Beach Cover-Ups Midi-Maxi Length Dress
Longer beach cover-ups offer more coverage and have more styling options. They also transition easier to other activities. Here are some you may like.
Anthropologie Lucia Sheer Midi Dress
The Anthropologie Lucia Sheer Midi Dress has a button up shirt front, short sleeve and an interesting detail in the back. The fabric is very lightweight and this cover-up is offered in three colors.
Elan Halter Neck Cover-up Maxi Dress
Elan is a brand that produces many stylish beach cover-ups. The Halter Neck Maxi is lightweight and very flowy.
Elan Crochet Midi Dress
The crochet beach cover-up is very popular this year. Here is the Elan Crochet Midi Dress that is offered in four colors.
Anthropologie PQ Swim Zinnia Tiered Dress
The PQ Swim Zinnia Dress is a beautiful and bright dress. The maxi length shows off this wonderful fabric- pair this with a colorful suit. So pretty.
Crocheted Midi Cover-Ups
As we mentioned above, crocheted Midi Cover-ups are having a moment this year. The Melissa Odabash Mia Maxi Dress and Anthropologie’s Sierra Sleeveless Fringe Dress are beautiful examples of this trend.
Other Stylish Beach Cover-Ups
Looking for another profile for your swimsuit cover, beach pants or skirts and tops are a wonderful option. We found many that are comfortable, versatile and beautiful.
Elan Beach Pant and Top
Val has these pants and a tank in blue, however, we were unable to find this color. We added the black pant and tie front cropped top– this would look great with a black one piece swimsuit.
Bella Dahl Wide Leg Pant and Various Tops
We recently found this wonderful brand, Bella Dahl. They have amazing fabrics- so soft and comfy. We paired the wide leg pant with either the long sleeve or sleeveless open knit tops. We have a discount code-SEASONS15 for a 15% discount on your first order. Please let us know if you love this brand too!
Maaji Aubrey Skirt
The Maaji Aubrey Skirt is in this beautiful eucalyptus green shade. We would pair this wide smocked waist midi skirt with a white open knit top- like the Bella Dahl item above. We couldn’t find a top to match from Maaji.
