You've got the swimsuit, the sandals [1], and the shades [2], now all you need is something to wear over that pool or beachside look. You could just throw on any ol' tee and shorts, but, sigh. You'd so much rather shimmy into something supereasy and superflattering, which can quickly take you to and from the water and preferably won't look too, too out of place if you opt to grab a Summer cocktail.
That's where these 31 cover-ups come in handy. Thanks to shorter lengths (elongating), waist-cinching details (showing off those curves), loose styles (cozy and cute), and sarongs (a versatile classic), they'll look good on every body type — so much so, you might want to wear 'em all day. Scroll through to see and shop our picks, then find a bikini bottom that'll flatter your butt [3].
