jkudzu Posted February 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I'm looking for a dress type cover-up to wear on beach excursions. Light-weight material, short sleeves or no sleeves, and without paying an arm and leg. Has anyone found any cute ones? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted February 11, 2010 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2010 You can find them in most dept. stores....usually for under $20....or, a lightweight sundress will work just fine, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy4lyfe Posted February 11, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I shop online and found a lot of swim cover ups. Target and Kohls have some nice ones under $20. Also you can find online coupons for up to 30% off and free shipping. If you don't like the ones at Target and Kohls just type in swim cover ups in your search engine and you will come up with a lot of other choices.

jkudzu Posted February 11, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Thanks everyone! So far, I haven't been able to find one that I love in the stores around here. Maybe the snow is keeping them away!;) Love the sarong from Ebay. May I ask who the seller is please? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA! :) Here is one of the websites; however when I am looking for coupons I just go to my search engine and type in the store name and the word coupon. Example: "Kohl coupons" and a lot of different coupon web sites come up. Below in one of the sites. Hope this help and enjoy your cruise. http://www.retailmenot.com/view/kohls.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrafreaky Posted February 11, 2010 #8 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I'm currently eyeing the selection at Casual Living. There's a black one there that I really like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted February 11, 2010 #10 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Beall's, Kohl's and Steinmart are 3 places that carry cover-ups. Also, if you are looking for cotton..a combed cotton, Land's End always has bathing suits and coverups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXFAM07 Posted February 11, 2010 #11 Share Posted February 11, 2010 They had a lot of them at Stein Mart last week~lots of styles and colors~around $25. They had the largest selection of the places I have looked. Also, Kohl's had a few. Lands' End has some. I ended up buying one at Target for $19 last week~I liked the fit and the price was right. I bought basic black, even though I was really looking for a more colorful one. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkudzu Posted February 12, 2010 Author #12 Share Posted February 12, 2010 The search continues! Haven't found any in the stores or on-line that I like. Thought I had a great organge, terry cloth dress but it was too small in the bust. :( We don't have a Stein Mart so I'll have to keep looking.

I found this - maybe in the oatmeal if you want a orangey contrast (is coral color in hood). http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.A89145.desc.Denim-Co-Knit-Terry-Short-Sleeve-Half-Zip-Hooded-Dress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkudzu Posted February 13, 2010 Author #17 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Ya'll are so sweet! Thank you! What I liked about the terry cloth one was not the fabric but it was a baby doll style dress with pockets. I guess I need something that I could wear into a gift shop near the beach. I don't like the see-thru kind. If nothing else, this search is occupying my time until we leave. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkudzu Posted February 13, 2010 Author #18 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I found a cover-up! And you'll never believe where I found it. (INSERT embarrassment HERE:o) I have a drawer that I had put clothing from the summer that I wanted to take on the cruise. If I picked up something on clearance that I thought would work, I'd stick it in the drawer. I was looking for something this morning and there it was. I have a cotton sundress with a smocked top and pockets. Easy on and off and it will look ok with sandals for going into shops. I've read about ladies who find things in their closets that they'd forgotten they had. I always wondered, how do you forget? Now I know!:p Thank you all for the help. Hopefully someone will be able to find a cover-up from this thread (that's not already in their possession.) :D Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
