Nothing’s quite as cute and classic as a polka-dot print, so why not take advantage of the look in a sun-protective style? For a cute way to style an adorable polka dot print, choose a solid-color cover-up in a complementary color. If you choose a navy blue or black tankini and swim skirt as your suit option, for example, a plain white swim cover-up adds a fresh, crisp contrast for a stunning style. Throw on a pair of espadrilles, oversized sunglasses, and a cute sun hat to finish off the look.
When you are looking for timeless styles that keep you protected, a classic one-piece women’s swimsuit always stays chic! Along with ensuring that it has the UPF protection you’re looking for, you can home in on the individual features that provide the best flattering fit for you. Whether it’s a sweetheart design, ruching details, tummy control, or a high neckline, there are tons of features that can make the style stand out and work perfectly for you. Pair it with a loose, pretty kaftan-style cover-up in a vibrant print or delicate floral pattern, and you have the look that will take you through the entire summer.
Cute yet sporty, wearing an outfit that includes your choice of swim top, a flattering swim skirt, and a fun hooded zip-front cover-up is a great option. The light, layered look makes it ideal to stay covered and protected from the sun, and you can easily remove the hoodie for water sports or other activities. The swim skirt provides stylish, flattering coverage, and you can pair it with any sort of UPF top, from a blouson-style tankini swim top to a three-quarter-sleeve fitted rash guard top.
If you want to take your summer style up a notch and still retain excellent sun coverage, a surplice-style swim dress is a first-class option. It’s elegant and sophisticated, yet keeps a slightly playful feel that’s also ideal for any summer gathering. The surplice style is designed to offer the most flattering look for virtually any body type, creating a V-neckline that flatters the bust, drawing in at the waist for an hourglass look, and including a body-skimming skirt that fits and flatters all your curves. Perhaps the best thing about this UPF swimwear is that it doesn’t take much to style it beautifully! Add your favorite summer accessories, like a hair scarf, cute earrings, or a sun hat, plus cute sandals, and you’re ready to go.
