Swimsuit Cover Ups

[LazyDays64]

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a new cover up for my bathing suit. Since I just got a new bathing suit, I need a new cover up, right? :D:p

 

What do you ladies have? I have one from Land's End that zips up. I like to use it for when I walk to the ladie's room on the ship. It's not quite long enough to sit in, if I wanted to go to the buffet and sit for a bit. So, I was thinking of getting this one in the blue:

This is the one I have from Land's End, in white:

I would also put on shorts and a t-shirt but my new bathing suit is a swimdress so that won't really work this time. And that should save some room in the suitcase which I'm trying really hard to do.

I like both your coverups, especially the black one which you say you have in white. I don't know how to post pictures but my coverups are usually ones that I can also wear in the MDR on casual nights over my capri pants. I usually wear them in the MDR then as a coverup over my swimsuit and capri pant the next day. I have a whole lot of them. I love to shop for swimwear at the end of the season so that I get great deals!;)

 

I hope you have a great trip!:D

Both coverups are really cute. I've been looking too. I think I might order the one from lands end . That aqua color is perfect for my suit. Thanks :)

Thanks mousy! I can't wait for it to get here, especially after freezing all winter! It feels like it's never going to get warm. :mad:

 

Thanks mimi and I'm glad I could help. :) I kind of wish I had it in a different color now, but, white goes with everything and I don't wear them often enough to buy another one in the same style.

I really like the second one. It will accentuate your waist to give you shape.

[diskids2]

I really like them both and I didn't know about the first online store..so something for me to explore!

[LazyDays64]

diskids2, I'm glad you found a new website to explore. :D I believe I got that site from someone here on the board, in one of the swimsuit threads. Another site that is good is www.swimsuitsforall.com

I got this one from H&M it is very floaty and lightweight and so easy to pack :-)

Those are both really pretty! The first one looks like you could wear it as a maxi dress when not using it as a cover up. :)

What I love to wear as a coverup is a long, knit maxi dress. I found two of them that are really cute from Ulla Popken. Plus, I can put on one of those dresses and go to the lounge for trivia, or they look really nice to get off the ship at a port. They're lightweight and very cool and comfortable.

I like them both and would love to wear the one as a maxi dress but it is ultra see through which you cannot tell from the picture :-(

 

I have worn the shorter one over a black dress instead of a ponchos or a jacket so I have gotten double duty out of it :)

I have a couple of 'sundresses' -about knee length from Gordman's. They were $19.99. I had one last year that I just loved, it didn't wrinkle & I could put it on over my suit and it looked good to go from pool to bingo to buffet to casino. Last weekend, I bought 2 more for this year. :)

I use sundresses for cover ups. Although, I did buy a cute tube top dress in Cozumel last time I was there that isn't something I would wear just as a dress. It's probably the only thing that is a cover up only. For 8 bucks, it was worth it.

Darcie,

 

Love both your dress/cover-ups! Especially the stripped one...I love stripes!:D

[sjb317]

What ports are you going to? I've bought most of my cover ups at various "straw markets" in ports in the Caribbean, I've always found cheap prices, $10-$20 usually. The ones I have could be worn as sundresses, but I just throw them on over my suits.

I like the one from Lands End mostly because it has pockets. For some reason I can't deal with a cover up with no pockets :). I also prefer the ones that open in the front rather than are a pull-over.

 

I bought one from Lands End last year that's looks like a sleeveless dress, I love it
