Bright Colors and Flowing Fabrics

When the nice weather arrives, it’s common to pack away winter clothes to make room for summer attire. Unlike the heavier winter layers, summer clothing is characterized by a wide variety of lightweight fabrics and bright, vibrant colors.

The same goes for the clothes you can wear by the seaside: it’s at the height of summer, during vacation time, when you can indulge in the lightest and most comfortable outfits.

Beachwear is often characterized by:

  • Vivid color gradients,
  • Patterns like Tie and Dye,
  • The prevalence of white, which contrasts beautifully with your tan,
  • Cuts that highlight your curves and body: slit skirts, crop tops, backless designs…

👉 Since you’re not at work or in a place where you need to dress up, it’s the perfect time to choose a comfortable and lightweight outfit that you love and that flatters you! The great thing about the beach is that everyone dresses as they please and can show off their bodies without being judged. You can finally dare to wear that low-cut top or that short skirt that’s been sitting in your closet for ages! 😉

3 Perfect Beach Dress Ideas for a Day at the Ocean

Easy to slip on and lightweight, the dress seems to be the perfect outfit for heading to the beach and enjoying walks along the shore. In the following lines, I’ll share some inspirations to help you find the ideal dress to pack in your suitcase!

A White Bohemian Beach Dress to Highlight Your Tan

Has a light tan started to enhance your skin? It’s the perfect time to wear a light and flowing white dress. In fact, pristine white is the ideal color to contrast and highlight your tan. This color evokes a sense of freedom, and when paired with a slightly loose fit, it gently accentuates your curves while remaining very comfortable.

To switch things up from a classic white dress, I recommend mixing patterns and textures by wearing different fabrics, especially those that are sheer. Dresses with lace details, in a bohemian style, are perfect for highlighting certain aspects of your figure. For instance, a lace collar will accentuate your neckline, while a lace-trimmed hem on a slip will elongate your legs and enhance their shape.

A Cute Short Dress with a Print

The short dress, which falls above the knee, is perfect for the beach because it allows you to wade in the water without worrying about getting your clothes wet. Additionally, it’s very convenient for changing, as you can slip it on before putting on your swimsuit bottoms, providing you with a bit more privacy while you get dressed.

If you want, you can choose a dress with a pretty print or a cheerful color that will brighten your appearance.

➡ If you have a more curvy figure, I recommend wearing a loose-fitting dress that you can cinch at the waist with a thin belt.

➡ Are you petite (under 5’3″)? In that case, you can wear a dress that is fitted and slightly flared at the bottom.

➡ If you’re tall, a backless dress will be perfect to enhance your figure!

😊 If you have sunburns, I recommend avoiding a dress in warm tones, especially reds, as they will only make the sunburn more noticeable. Instead, opt for a blue or green dress.

A Colorful Long Dress

People often think that a long dress is not suitable for the beach, as it can indeed be cumbersome when walking in the water or on the sand. However, it can actually be quite practical for avoiding sunburn and for sitting in the sand without getting it all over your clothes.

If you want to walk in the water, you can opt for a dress that isn’t too long, one that falls above the ankles, or simply hike it up.

To do this, just keep a safety pin in your beach bag and use it to lift the front of your dress a little. It’s that simple!

👉 In the same bohemian spirit, a colorful, fitted maxi skirt is also perfect for a beach outfit. I recommend pairing it with a cropped top to redefine and enhance the proportions of your silhouette.

A Practical and Comfortable Jumpsuit

Do you want to take long walks on the beach or through the dunes? Planning to get some exercise? A jumpsuit is the perfect solution for you. This all-in-one outfit is ideal for maintaining your freedom of movement at the beach while staying stylish. You can choose it in patterns or solid colors.

It is also perfect for new moms who need to feel comfortable in their clothing while taking care of a baby or young child at the beach.

👉 Do your thighs rub together and cause discomfort when you walk on the beach? Consider opting for a slightly longer swimsuit that will help prevent this issue and allow you to enjoy your vacation!

Denim Shorts with a Kimono, Perfect for an Active Beach Day

Like the jumpsuit, this outfit combines comfort and simplicity. It’s perfect if you want to take a stroll, exercise, or just feel comfortable while moving around. You can wear your denim shorts with a tank top, a lightweight blouse, or a crop top, depending on your preferences.

To add a chic detail, you can wear it with a long kimono, which will protect you from the sun without making you too hot.

A pair of canvas pants for cool days and long walks

Have you decided to take a stroll along the beach, but it’s a bit chilly? In that case, you might consider wearing ankle-length canvas pants (or capris). Their loose fit will enhance your figure, especially if you’re a bit taller.

If you’re petite, I recommend wearing it with a belt. You can tie a knot that will draw attention to your waist and highlight your figure.

Depending on the weather, this type of pants can be paired with a blouse, a t-shirt, or a lightweight tank top, or even a long cardigan or kimono.

A Nautical Striped Shirt to Celebrate the Maritime Spirit and Vacation

For many of us, the striped shirt is synonymous with beach vacations and is timeless! Whether it’s primarily white or blue, its iconic pattern is unmistakable and brings back wonderful memories for many. Comfortable and practical, it is easy to pair and goes particularly well with jeans.

👉 If you like, you can also wear vertical stripes. It’s not a sailor shirt, but if they are blue, they still give off a nautical vibe while also flattering your figure!

Beach Accessories

To wrap things up, I’d like to share a short selection of perfect accessories for your beach attire that will complete your summer outfit!

A Hat to Protect You from the Sun

Both stylish and essential for avoiding sunburn, a wide-brimmed hat will give a vacation vibe to all your summer outfits. I recommend choosing a light color, which will be easy to match and bright, without making you feel hot. A hat made from a woven material, like straw, will be breathable and help keep your head from sweating.

Finally, I recommend choosing your hat in-store or making sure to measure your head circumference to select the right size. If the hat is too small, it may easily blow off, while if it’s too big, it can obstruct your view.

Trendy Sunglasses

Along with a hat, sunglasses are a must-have accessory for enjoying a day at the beach. The ocean is very reflective, and staring at it without proper protection can harm your eyes and cause fatigue.

Today, there is a wide variety of unique sunglasses frames to choose from: opt for large lenses to ensure maximum comfort and protection. As for the frame, during the summer, you can go for colorful and distinctive frames, or a fine gold frame, which is very trendy right now.

A Colorful Tote Bag

Nothing beats a tote bag for carrying your beach essentials! If you’re going for a stroll, you might also choose a small bag to keep your valuables safe, like your wallet, car keys, and smartphone…

The trendy materials for summer are straw, as well as natural fabrics, like cotton and linen. To achieve a stylish look, make sure to match your bag to your outfit. You can also have it embroidered to personalize it! This is actually a perfect gift idea for a vacation keepsake.

Costume Jewelry

To enhance your outfit, you can adorn yourself with beautiful jewelry, which you can either buy at beachfront markets or make yourself. Take advantage of it; summer is the season for macramé woven bracelets, seed beads in all colors, and colorful costume jewelry that has a natural feel.

💍 Avoid bringing valuable jewelry, whether gold or silver, to the beach. It’s so easy to lose them in the sand, and that would be a real shame.

Proper Footwear… or No Footwear at All!

When it comes to footwear, you have several options: flip-flops, sandals, canvas sneakers… but the simplest and most enjoyable choice while walking on the sand is definitely to go barefoot. To avoid being weighed down during your day at the beach, be sure to bring along some lightweight shoes that can easily fit into your bag once you reach the sand! 😉

I hope this guide has helped you find the perfect outfit to head to the beach and make the most of those great moments.

While we await the return of sunny days, let me share a bit more about the kimono, which has been mentioned several times in this article.
