If you're anything like me, dressing for a day at the beach is the absolute worst. I'm never sure how to pack so that I'll be able to throw something on and head out to dinner or a barbecue after spending a day at the heat. Apparently we're not alone, though.
Tapping this headache for its new video series, Cosmopolitan has come up with 8 ways to style your swimsuit in a way that'll take you from land to sea and back again without having to haul along much more than your makeup bag for touch-ups. And the biggest trick to making this look transformation work? Layers.
In their first look, Cosmo stylists match a day-to-night blazer with a sarong, allowing you to simply shrug it off for a cute beachy look or dress it up for a night out. In another, matching a knotted plaid shirt with a high-rise skirt lets the swimsuit work like a bandeau and is great for both on and off the sand.
My personal favorite, however, is the overalls look. I tried this at the beach myself the other day and it translated well! Just kick off your booties while you're at the beach and then pull your overalls over your swimsuit later for a hip outfit for the afternoon or evening.
