"I'm thrilled with this swim cover-up! The fit is extremely flattering, the bell sleeves are so stylish, and the material is both soft and breathable. I love how lightweight yet substantial it feels, making it ideal for summer days by the water. The brown color is exactly as shown and the stretch makes it easy to wear.

"This crochet cover-up has become a staple for me. It complements all my swimsuits, is not itchy at all, and offers just the right amount of coverage without feeling bulky. As someone who's 5'2”, I appreciate that the loose fit doesn't overwhelm my frame. It's comfortable, chic, and easy to style from beach to lunch."

"I really wanted to like this cover-up, but for me, the material was heavier than I expected, and there was a noticeable chemical smell right out of the packaging. While the look is great and the quality feels good, the weight makes it a bit warm for hot weather and adds bulk to luggage. If you're sensitive to strong odors, you might want to consider this before buying."

"I absolutely love how soft and comfortable this cover-up set feels, even in humid weather. It's perfect for transitioning from the beach to lunch or shopping without feeling too exposed. The pants are a little long for my 5'4" frame, but it wasn't a big issue, especially while on vacation. I definitely recommend this set!"

"This set made me feel confident and stylish by the pool. I love that I can wear the shirt two ways—buttons in front or back! I sized up to a Large for my legs, and the fit was just right. If you have a larger bust, sizing up is a good idea."

"As someone who’s curvy, I was really happy with the oversized fit in XL. The sparkly details are gorgeous and I got so many compliments on my trip. It’s so cute that I’m thinking about getting more colors. Highly recommend!"

"I was genuinely impressed by the chic, modern look and versatility of this cover-up.

This piece has definitely elevated my summer wardrobe."

"This is hands-down the best swim cover-up I’ve ever owned. The oversized style offers great coverage without being too sheer or heavy, and I constantly get compliments.

"I found this cover-up to be so cute and incredibly flattering. As someone who is usually a size small, it fit me perfectly—not too tight or loose.

"This swimsuit cover-up has become one of my favorite beach essentials. The fabric is soft, breathable, and stretches just right.

Even after multiple washes, it still looks new. It’s perfect for any vacation or pool day."

"I really enjoy this cover-up for its soft, lightweight, and comfortable fabric. It’s flattering without clinging too much, and has a cute, casual vibe.

Overall, it’s been a great addition for chic comfort by the water."

"I absolutely loved how comfortable and cute this cover-up is! It gave me plenty of coverage so I felt great wearing it all over the cruise ship. Definitely a practical piece for vacation."

"The material is soft and the loose fit makes it so easy to slip on after swimming. I really like the V-neck style and the added pockets—super convenient! For beach bars, it’s perfect, but I wouldn’t wear it into town since the waffle knit is a bit see-through."

"I bought this in two colors and they both fit perfectly. The fabric is lightweight and just right for covering up after a swim. Just make sure to wash them separately at first because the color can bleed a little."

"This button-down is my go-to for the beach. The fabric is super breathable and dries quickly, which is ideal after a swim. I can easily throw it over a swimsuit or pair it with shorts for a relaxed but stylish look, and it doesn't wrinkle much. The coastal vibe fits almost any casual occasion."

"I bought the ivory color and it was great for hot days—especially at Disney! The fit is oversized and lightweight, which I loved, but the color had a bit more yellow than I expected. Still, it’s a cute and practical option for staying cool and comfortable."

"I was genuinely surprised by how much I love this top—it’s even better than I hoped! The design is beautiful and the quality feels solid. Definitely a great addition to my wardrobe."
