Summer is almost here and I am already counting down the days until we leave for vacation. That’s right, we will be heading down to the beach house to relax and have some fun. Trust me, I deserve it and I am definitely going to enjoy it.
Earlier this month I got all of my summer clothing and accessories down out of the attic and packed up my winter garb. My swimming suit is still in fabulous shape from last year but I was needing a new swimsuit cover up.
I found the perfect cover up at an online store called Free Country who sells all kinds of outdoor clothing & accessories for men and women. You can find winter clothing and summer clothing with just a click of the mouse!
The company sent me a X-Front Kangaroo Pocket Cover Up in white to review for all of you. It is also available in black, Caribbean Turquoise and Hot Coral…but I selected the white which will go with both of my bathing suits. When ordering, I would stick true-to-size.
The cover up is made out of a super light-weight 90% Polyester and 10% Spandex. A great fabrication for the hot summer months when you want to remain cool. When it needs laundered, you will want to hand wash it and air dry. The fabrication is a stretchy-mesh so it really glides across the body nicely and dries super quickly!
It features kangaroo style front pockets, long sleeves, tunic length (comes to mid-thigh level) and a drawstring hood on the back. One of the things I really like about it is that it is cut in an a-line shape so it flows nicely across the hips, butt and thigh areas. I don’t like anything clingy on me in those areas at all so I am really impressed with the fit of this garment.
For picture taking purposes I had my mother model it for us. Underneath it she has on a tankini and you can’t even see it. What is really cool is that you simply pull this cover up over your head and it is on. There are no zippers, snaps or buttons to fumble with and since it has a generous neckline opening, it goes over your head & onto your body really easily.
Overall, I am super impressed with this swimsuit cover up and I can’t wait to sport it around on the beach and poolside while on vacation next month. It fits me (and mom) fantastically and it is very comfortable to wear.

I like the hood- I’ve always had a thing for hoodies. 🙂
On Facebook I commented on What a fun idea. Would your kids eat this??
Such a cute idea for a children’s birthday party! (via Raw Food Revolution
I like that it look lightweight enough to not be too hot.
This cover-up would be great at a resort or on a cruise. When you leave the pool area, you would be able to comfortably mingle with fully dressed guests
I love that it is a cover-up, but slightly sheer to show the color of the swimsuit underneath.
I like that it is simple and white
I liked a 5/30 post as Christy Peeples DuBois that says “Good morning everyone….” . I liked this post today, 5/30.
One thing I really like, as you said you do also, is the a line cut so that it is full enough to not touch my hips or thighs. I also like that it just goes over the head.

I like it’s hood and pouch pocket most I think. Though I do like the X front neckline too. I just have a thing for hoodies 🙂
I like that is is a full cover and will keep you warm if you’re at a hotel or something and have to walk back to your room in a cool/air condition hall or something similar. Plus, I like the hood, I haven’t seen many other coverups with a hood.
I like that it dries real fast as my boys are always swimming and splashing me
