I’m all about living in my swimwear during vacation. Making life easier is my vibe, so when it comes to summer nights, I don’t want to waste time getting ready. Instead, I prefer to relax and enjoy every moment. If you’re the same way, here are a few tips to transition your swimwear from the beach to the bar without the hassle.
1. Swimsuit + High-Waisted Skirt or Shorts
Pair a sleek one-piece or bikini top with high-waisted shorts or a flowy skirt. A miniskirt or a tailored shorts look will give off a sophisticated vibe, while a flowy skirt will add a relaxed, bohemian feel. Top it off with a statement necklace or some layered bracelets.
2. Cover-Up as a Jacket
A lightweight kimono, sarong, or beachy tunic can double as a chic cover-up for your swimwear. Throw it over your bikini or one-piece and pair it with some strappy heels or ankle boots. This look can add a luxurious, laid-back vibe, perfect for a night out.
3. Swimwear + Blazer
For a more daring, fashion-forward approach, layer a fitted blazer over a bikini top or one-piece. Add some tailored pants or a sleek skirt to complete the look. This is perfect for a trendy rooftop bar or a night at a club.
4. Swimwear + Wide-Legged Pants
Pair a bikini top or swimsuit with wide-legged pants or palazzo pants. The contrast between the swimwear and the flowy pants gives a breezy, sophisticated vibe. Add a statement belt and oversized sunglasses to complete the look.
5. Swimwear + Denim Jacket
A classic denim jacket works well over a bikini top or one-piece swimsuit. You can opt for distressed jeans or a high-waisted skirt to pair with this combo for an effortlessly cool night-out look. Finish it off with chunky heels or sandals for that laid-back yet stylish vibe.
6. Swimwear + Statement Accessories
Accessories can make all the difference. Try adding a bold hat, chunky jewelry (think big gold hoops or layered necklaces), and a stylish bag like a crossbody or clutch. A flowy scarf or shawl can also add an extra touch of elegance, especially when paired with a more minimal swimwear look.
7. Maxi Skirt & Swimsuit Combo
If you're wearing a bikini or one-piece, a high-waisted maxi skirt can elevate the look. It’s perfect for a more formal or bohemian chic vibe. Pair it with platforms or flat sandals, and throw on a crop top or light jacket to finish it off.
8. Swimwear + Platform Shoes
When you're feeling bold, style your swimsuit or bikini with wedge espadrilles shoes or wedge sandals. These can add a chic touch, especially when paired with a sleek cover-up or skirt.
9. Bodysuit as Top
You can even wear your swimsuit as a bodysuit and pair it with high-waisted jeans or pants. Add a belt and a blazer for a night-out look that's both fashionable and comfortable.
…
The secret? Keep it cool, effortless, and chic. Mix your swimwear with structured or elegant pieces, throw on some bold accessories, and choose shoes that fit the vibe.
Here's to making this summer one to remember!
Cheers to you!
