Frequently Asked Questions

How do I style a swimsuit for lunch or drinks after the pool or beach?

Turning your swimsuit into a full outfit is easier than you think. Layer on an oversized button-down with boxer shorts, a breezy dress, or a relaxed matching set to instantly look styled instead of just swim-ready. Add cute sandals, a fun trucker hat, and a roomy tote, and you’re officially ready for patio lunches, frozen drinks, and sunset photos. Katydid makes it simple with throw-on pieces that feel effortless but look completely put together.

What do I wear over a swimsuit on a boat?

Boat days call for lightweight, easy layers that move with you. You want pieces that dry quickly, feel breathable, and still look cute in every dockside photo. Katydid’s laid-back sets and beach-ready layers are perfect for cruising, lounging, and hopping off for waterfront snacks.

What are trendy alternatives to traditional swim cover-ups?

If you’re over the basic sarong, you’re not alone. Trendy alternatives include boxer shorts, lightweight dresses, relaxed sets, and graphic tees styled with comfy shorts. These options feel more like real outfits while still being easy to toss on over your swimsuit. With Katydid’s playful prints and effortless silhouettes, your cover-up feels modern, versatile, and ready for whatever’s on the itinerary.
