When you live near to the beach you want to get the most out of it. I know I enjoy going out with my dog on hot days. Since we do not have the luxury to be a beach bum I have found ways to dress up my swimsuit for other occasions such as going out to the bar, or going shopping. It is always a good idea for us ladies to have versatile pieces in our closets. Layering your favorite swim top/piece is very easy. You can pair with a skirt, which is my favorite or with palazzo pants that are so comfortable and great for a bike ride. You can also use it as a crop top over shorts, denim or overalls.
