4 Ways to Wear Swimwear out of the Water

If the only swimming you’re doing right now is in your dreams, remember there will be a time in the near future when you can collect shells, listen to the crash of waves and parade around paradise in a sexy bikini. Until those days return, know that your swimwear shopping addiction is not for naught.
Beachwear can be a lot more versatile than you think. So, if you come across a Popstry swimsuit that’s totally irresistible, go ahead and get treat yourself! We promise it won’t just sit in your closet. Here are some ways we’re currently wearing our favorites.
1. As a bodysuit
That whole bodysuit trend? Super sexy, and frankly, pretty damn smart. A bodysuit enables you to tuck your top into jeans or a skirt without bulkiness or bulging. In turn, you score a sleek, streamlined look that’s flattering and fashionable. What’s more, you don’t actually need a top labeled “bodysuit” to get the look. A one-piece swimsuit is designed exactly the same way! Take yours off the sand and wear it with skinny jeans and tall boots for a dinner date.

3. As a crop top

Just when we thought crop tops had disappeared from the runway spotlight, they made a comeback as even teensy tops. Popularized by Katie Holmes who made the look next-level with her cashmere "bra" and matching cardi sighting, crop tops now look like—you guessed it—bikini top!
We love the style poolside, but we're also donning ours for weekend outings under a tailored blazer or button-front sweater.
