Cute Cover-Ups!

These Arizona Discovery Girls know all about looking stylish at the pool! Looking cute and summery has never been so easy…Before and after swimming in the pool—or at the beach!—just throw on a light-weight cover-up dress over your swimsuit! You have lots of options with so many styles out there. Show your girly side with pretty ruffles from Justice or wear something bright like this blue one from HTG81. Going to a resort for your family vacation? This Old Navy smock dress is perfect.

Whether you’re going on a vacation with family or just having a pool party with friends, you’ll be cute and comfy with a simple cover-up!

1 piece or 2 piece

I’m planning on getting a swimsuit. Should i get a 1 piece or 2 piece? Believe it or not i weigh 65 and i’m 11 so I’m pretty skinny. But not as skinny as the one that you can see your ribs. so i dont know which one would look good.

Cover Up!

I don’t want do buy something that I’d wear in public just to put it over a swimming suit! The ONLY way I’d buy something for that use if it was labled as a cover up.

cheap to buy?

I’ve heard of cover-ups before but never had one. Are they easy to wear and can you buy them anywhere? I think I had one as A little Kid though.

RE: cheap to buy?

It depends on where you are shopping. Justice has some pretty cute ones, but you can find cheaper ones at Target or JCpenny- they are cute too! They are made with a special fabric that is comfy and you can just slip it on over your head!

2 in 1!!

omigosh so if u have like a pretty long skirt (past the knees) then this is good some skirts dont do this but most do…but what u can do is just pull it up to be a strapless cover-up! i do this all the time it lookes great and u totally can’t tell it was a skirt, plus i never used to wear it bcuz the awkwardness of the length!

Cute Cover-Ups

I think that the Old Navy cover up is super cute and that the girl with the green goggles has a cute bikini!! Also, 2 horsegirls2, I used 2 like a guy that was SUPER shy, what I did was ask him 2 be my partner for everything I could, then find out more about him aka what he likes, his interests, ect., and talk about those things with him. <3

If he goes to your school you

If he goes to your school you could ask him what he did over the summer. When ever I see the guy I like in the hallway I always say “Hi Ken”(boys name changed) or when he had a solo for band I said “good Luck Ken” then after his solo I said “good job Ken”. It’s kinda weird, but it makes it easier to talk to him later on. &birdwatcher68& I don’t know if that will help, but the guy will probably be happy that you talked to him.

horsegirls2

Stay calm. Walk up to the guy and compliment him on his shirt or ask how his summer is going so far. Try to keep your voice smooth and not nervous sounding and avoid from getting red in the face. Don’t laugh too hard at his jokes, but smile and nod. Guys like girls who LISTEN. So pay attention to what he’s saying and make eye contact. Ask questions about the subject too. And be yourself! Good luck!

Quiet guy

Well i would not be to obvious that you are trying to talk to him you can smile at him from time to time like a half smile of a little smile then when you think you got his attention just ask a simple question like “where did you get your shirt my friend has been dieing to get that”then continue the conversation and if it goes well ask him if he would like to hang out.

Coverups are really nice if you want to just wear a bathing suit to the pool or beach.

Cute

I have a cute Target cover-up. It is white and made out of some, towel material. It is a short dress and is the type that wraps around your neck. ( maybe called a halter dress? ) I also have this other one that is pastel colored tie die and it is also a halter dress but this one is actually a dress and is a long dress. It is from this brand called T 2 Love which is expensive so I only have a couple of their outfits. : )
