When it comes to looking stylish at the beach, the one thing you definitely want to avoid is looking overdone. However, that doesn’t mean you have to settle for plain shorts and a t-shirt. Kaftans are a great coverup option to have in your closet this summer. Besides being comfortable, a kaftan will easily transform your look from Plain Jane to resort ready. Kaftans are a must-have for vacations because of their versatility. They can be worn at the beach, while sightseeing, for lunch on a fabulous yacht, and even out at night. There are so many different colors, prints, and silhouettes to choose from, plus flattering styles for every body type!
Long flowy kaftans such as swoon-worthy styles by Mara Hoffman and Luxe by Lisa Vogel are definitely beach must-haves. Trade your flip-flops for strappy sandals when transitioning this look from the beach to town and you’ll instantly look chic. Or, if you’re looking to incorporate more color into your everyday wardrobe, opt for a brightly printed kaftan to mix things up. Athena Procopiou, Diane von Furstenberg, and Trina Turk all have colorful, floral kaftans that are flirty and feminine. A draped silhouette is another way to achieve the same feminine look like Ramona La Rue’s dragonfly kaftan, which has an asymmetrical hemline adding to a dramatic, yet relaxed feel.
Animal-prints are another great option because they will work with many different colored swimsuits due to their neutral color scheme. White House Black Market has a wonderful leopard kaftan that is on sale for less than $50! Embellished kaftans are yet another option and can be worn over a solid swimsuit to amp up your glam factor. Victoria’s Secret embellished kaftan dress has gold embellishments, plunging neckline, and kimono sleeves that will be sure to add that extra sparkle your itty bitty bikini craves.
Whether you prefer your kaftan long or short, colorful or neutral, embellished or animal printed, revealing or covered up, it will surely turn heads at your travel destination’s resort, on the sandy beaches, and of course poolside. This summer’s kaftan styles are sure to add extra excitement to your summer swim and jetset wardrobe! Below are 8 stylish kaftan cover ups for every budget this summer.

I have two kaftans, but those are not beautiful like your ones. I love your colours and designs, those are eye catching.

Kaftans are a beautiful way to accessorize or cover up a bikini. Every lady must own one!
