We’ve seen Kiana Valenciano rock a kimono in the past and she’s taking this piece to the beach too. While on the sandy beaches of Australia, she wore a bright orange kimono with a floral print. This one from H&M is made of satin and has a 3/4 -length cuff and a detachable tie waist.

If you want to wear your bikini as a top, get some inspiration from Maxene Magalona. On her trip to Bali, she wore a white bandeau top paired with wide leg pants. This blue pair has a cropped length so you can show off your sandals or espadrilles.

Oversized Top

The perfect no-fuss beach cover up is an oversized button up shirt. Jess Wilson picked this option while walking on the beach at sunset. Wear it as a dress or off the shoulder just like Jess. It also has ribbon details on the sleeve cuff which you can tie into a bow.

Shop: Mango Cotton Long Shirt. Available at Alabang Town Center.

Crop Top

When you’re at the beach, sometimes less is more. However, if you want to cover up just a little while having a meal or switching spots, take note from Nadine Lustre. Pack a white crop top that you can keep in your bag and throw on whenever you need it.  

Shop: Bershka Knotted T-Shirt. Available at SM Aura Premier.
