Add a bikini cover-up to your beachbag

Many women tend to go for baggy styles, like a kaftan, in order to cover up.  However, a baggy style often makes you look bigger than you are.  So what is the alternative?

Here are my 3 top things to look out for in your cozi cover-up:

1.    Select a style that has shape in the waist.  It can still be loose fitting and comfortable, but a little bit of waist definition will make a big difference to your look.

2.    Print is often better than a plain. The print disguises the eye so you won't know what’s fabric and what’s flesh.  If the fabric is fairly sheer, a print will also conceal a lot more than a plain.

3.    Wear it as a dress. An added benefit to a cozi cover-up that has some shape is that you can dress it up and wear it as a dress.  Simply add a slip, a belt, some shoes and you are ready to go out. This means you get more wear for your spend and it takes up less room in your suitcase.
