Modest Swimwear
I don’t think I’ve ever done a post about modest swimwear, but I got such a huge response when I posted this photo while on vacation. Everyone had questions about my rash guard, swim cap, and where I got everything from. Today I’m sharing all the details on my favorite modest swim gear!
I go with a turban look while swimming. I find it easier and it gives my neck room to breathe or else I feel a bit claustrophobic while in the pool. I have a swim turban that I prefer to wear for water activities. It stays in place and doesn’t budge! I played an intense game of water volleyball with my family and had no issues with it. If I’m just lounging on the beach and don’t plan on getting in the water I go with this turban that is a bit lighter.

Let’s not forget accessories! A big straw sun hat is a must for the beach, as well as a beach blanket, tote, and sunnies. I prefer to go with inexpensive sunnies because there is always a chance for them to get swept away by a wave or lost at the pool. I leave my fancy sunnies for dry land!

As for the gear that I wear going into the water, I wear a skirted swim bottom from Coolibar paired with a long sleeve rash guard top or a long sleeve one piece bathing suit. I prefer the skirted swim bottoms as opposed to the swim tights because it provides extra coverage. There is also a cropped version of the skirted swim tights as well – I have both! For sizing reference I have XS and S. It is best to have a size down for the tights because once you are in the water you want to make sure it sticks and doesn’t get loose.
For tops I have a few rash guards that I rotate through. Now is the time to stock up on them since it is the end of summer and they are on major sale! I linked a bunch below. My favorite brands/places to shop for rash guards are J. Crew, Body Glove, Coolibar, and Zappos.

Floral Print Dress
Dress: c/o SheIn | Cardigan: Old, similar | Sandals: M. Gemi | Tote: Shopbop | Sunnies: Ray-Ban | Scarf: Haute Hijab
A maxi floral dress is must pack for any island trip! I wore this look to the family lunch the day after the wedding. It was breezy and comfortable for lunch and afterward I threw on a turban and headed to hang poolside with the fam. I love dresses that can transition from casual to dressed up.
This dress is also a great transition to fall. I plan on pairing it with a leather jacket and booties for a colorful fall look!
Kaftan Dress
The minute I booked my flight to Dominican Republic I started planning my outfits. I knew it was going to be hot and humid in August therefore I was on the hunt for breezy dresses. This kaftan dress is the perfect piece to pack for a tropical trip. It can be worn as a cover up or a dress. Since it’s white it is a bit see through therefore i paired it with a maxi slip dress underneath for more coverage. I wore this dress a few times during the trip, to the beach, breakfast, and to the pool because it was super comfortable.

Punta Cana | Dominican Republic
Happy Friday!! I’m officially back from my vacation in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. I had such a blast in the Caribbean celebrating my cousin’s destination wedding. We stayed at the loveliest resort – Majestic Colonial Resort Punta Cana. The best part of the trip was spending time with the family. I adore my family and since we all live far away it’s really nice to get all the cousins, aunts, uncles, and little ones together.
Sharing one of the looks I wore to dinner while at the resort. I packed a ton of maxi dresses for the trip since it was in the high 80s with 90% humidity! I picked up this dress a few days before I left at J. Crew and it was the best purchase I made! The dress is breezy and perfect for high humidity weather. I paired it with a lightweight cardigan, sandals, and my favorite basket bag for a relaxed evening dinner look.
I will share more looks for my trip next week including what I wore to the pool and beach! I got a ton of message and questions when I posted this photo. I’m working on a post to share all my swimwear finds so stay tuned!
Have a lovely weekend!
