I love when a swim suit cover up can double as a dress, and this is a perfect one. You can literally go from the beach to out and about. Might be TMI, but I actually just ended up wearing my normal black bra and a black thong underneath, as I would with a normal dress… which I was skeptical about at first because of the cutouts, but it worked out. (The cutouts are only on the front.) At first I was thinking of a black bodycon dress to wear underneath, but that would defeat the purpose of the cutouts. So even though it’s a simple swim suit cover up, it can easily be styled with pieces to make it more exciting…. Like these gladiator lace up heels from Make Me Chic. I wear my black lace up heels all the time, but I can never actually tie them up to under my knee because there’s no back support, so the laces just fall down. With these heels, theres a back piece/zipper that keeps them up, so you don’t have to walk all careful like you would with ones with no back support. They’re super comfy, too!
