Many people struggle with packing as much action as they possibly can into the short three months of summer. There’s the pressure of finding a summer job, dealing with summer school classes, making time for friends and working on getting back into shape (shopping is cardio, right?). The constant, on-the-go craziness of summer can get exhausting, so when the opportunity to lay stationary on a poolside recliner for eight plus hours presents itself, it’s imperative that you make the most of it! However, just because you’re enjoying a day of pure leisure doesn’t mean you should let your style relax.
A day at the pool is the perfect opportunity to pull together an outfit that is functional, fun and still effortless. The goal is to choose a cover-up that can transition perfectly from laying in the sun to hitting the town. This Fashionista is wearing wide-legged, high-waisted pants that are light enough to keep her cool during the day, and still comfortable at night. They’re a true standout piece that blows a basic cover-up out of the water. She’s thrown on a cropped white button-up, with an adorable centered tie to complement the playfulness of the bottoms. Underneath, she is rocking an adorable mint green swimsuit top with a trendy detailed back. She ties the look together with a colorful boho headband, ’60s-inspired round glasses and light brown sandals. Lastly, she has her trusty, faded gray satchel that is perfect for carrying all of her poolside essentials. This look showcases all the aspects you need to put a simple cover-up to shame.
A poolside look can be more than an old T-shirt and shorts! It’s the perfect opportunity to experiment with bright colors, summery prints and unique accessories. Make the most of your days off with an outfit that can last you from morning to night without even trying.
