Im Visiting Mexico This Summer and Packing This $24 Swimsuit Coverup

Living in Los Angeles, I have a good collection of swimsuits, sandals, and accompanying beach accessories, but my options for coverups always fell short of expectations. When deciding on a coverup, I prefer a dress compared to a sarong or oversized shirt because I want to be able to wear it on its own. I also like having a piece that’s lightweight but not entirely see-through. This list of requirements can be a tall order, but my search officially stopped when I tried this midi coverup dress from Cupshe. 

This coverup dress, which comes in two colors and features a waffle-knit design, is my ideal level of elevated swimwear. It’s beachy enough to be stuffed into a tote bag, get wet, and be covered in sand without worrying I will mess up the fabric. But I also feel confident stopping at the store or coffee shop on the way to the beach without feeling too exposed. Plus, it’s currently on sale for $24 in both beige and black, and shoppers get an extra 20 percent off with code AFSWIMDDM20 on all orders over $40. 

Waffle Knit Scoop Neck Sleeveless Midi Coverup

It is also one of the most flattering coverups I have ever worn. The thick crochet material is stretchy and breathable, creating a figure-flattering silhouette. In addition to having a stylish shape, the fabric feels lightweight and breathable, which is a huge pro when lounging outside on a hot day (which I know all-too-well living in L.A.). The midi length is ideal for my petite, 5-foot-2 frame by providing enough coverage without overwhelming my shorter stature.

Along with wearing the coverup around my city, I have a few tropical vacations planned this year, so it will be one of the first pieces I pack. Compared to a few linen options I have, I like that it won’t wrinkle in my luggage, plus it rolls up easily and retains its shape and structure right out of the bag.  Since the woven material has decent coverage, I’ll be wearing it around the pool, resort, and beach all day. One shopper also confirmed it’s “super cute for the beach,” adding that it “fits very well” and is made with a “soft material but not too heavy.”

Considering how impressed I’ve been with this coverup, I’m eager to try more beach- and pool-ready styles from the brand, especially while so many are on sale. To shop more options, keep scrolling.
