Summer style has had its staples since the beginning of beach getaways. Resort wear is having a massive moment and it begs the question: Is this a daytime outfit or a nighttime outfit? But, what if I told you, you could have both in one? With just a little bit of styling, your staples can transition from day to night effortlessly.

From beachside lounging to chic cocktails at sunset, mastering the art of day-to-night dressing is a must. So, I’ve curated a collection of versatile outfit ideas that will take you from the sand to the bar.Â
The Classic Wrap Dress:
Is there anything more quintessentially summer than a flowy wrap dress? Opt for a lightweight, breezy silhouette in a vibrant floral print or soft pastel hue for daytime lounging by the waves. As the sun begins to set, simply swap your sandals for strappy heels, add statement earrings, and cinch the waist with a sleek belt for an instant dose of evening glamour.
For effortlessly chic summer style that transitions seamlessly from day to night, reach for a stylish jumpsuit in a breathable fabric like linen or cotton. Pair it with oversized sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat for a casual beach vibe during the day, then elevate your look with metallic sandals, a statement necklace, and a bold lip for an evening out on the town.
A maxi skirt is a summer style staple that offers endless styling possibilities. Wear it with a cropped tank top and flat sandals for a laid-back beach look, then amp up the glamour by swapping the tank for a silk camisole, adding heeled wedges, and accessorising with delicate layered necklaces and a straw clutch for cocktails at sunset.
For those days when you want to feel effortlessly chic without sacrificing comfort, a boho-inspired romper is the perfect choice for your summer style. Pair it with embellished sandals and a floppy sun hat for a relaxed beach look, then transition seamlessly to evening by adding statement earrings, metallic espadrilles, and a sleek crossbody bag for a night of dancing under the stars.
The Statement Bikini Cover-Up:
Who says your beach cover-up can’t double as evening wear? Opt for a statement-making cover-up in a bold print or vibrant colour that can easily be dressed up with the right accessories. Layer it over your favourite bikini for a day spent lounging by the water, then throw on strappy heels, a wide belt, and oversized sunglasses for a beach-to-bar ensemble that’s sure to turn heads.
