What I Wore: Plus Size Beach Outfits

I’m fresh off of a beach vacation and thought I’d share some quick outfits as some people asked for links on Instagram. I will recap the vacation soon, but first, need to filter through all the photos and videos.

In typical form, I overpacked. I know I’m not alone — more options are always better! Here were some of the looks that made it out of the suitcase and into the sun.

This first look was one that I wore twice. It was easy to throw on, super comfortable, and dressed up with a simple necklace and metallic flats

Foundation tank, Universal Standard

I bought this dress months ago in anticipation of this vacation. I think it was worth the wait! I appreciated that it was a cool poplin material to help beat the heat.

Dress – size down 1-2!
Shoes – wide width and super affordable

I brought about 4 swimsuit coverups with me, but ended up wearing this simple coverup more than anything. It’s supposed to be worn with the tie in the back, but I liked it in the front. Comes in multiple colors and is very generously sized and only $25.

I wish I had a less grainy photo of this, but it’s what you get when the sun has already set and you’re relying on natural light! This was one of the dresses I bought from the Target Designer Dress collection so it’s unfortunatley not available anymore.

The only time this coverup made an appearance! I bought it a few years ago from Amazon, and it’s still available. Ultra lightweight and easy to layer.
