20 Swimsuit Outfit Ideas To Wear Off The Beach

Ever stand in front of your jam-packed closet, staring at more than enough clothing options, and think: I have nothing to wear? Same. But perhaps the issue isn’t that you’re out of viable choices. You just need a fresh dose of outfit inspiration to help you see your wardrobe in a new way. That’s where Outfit Dump comes in. Every month, we supply you with enough ideas to fuel your style until the next drop comes along. This month, we are looking at the ways to wear a swimsuit off the beach.

Summer is the time when we allow our creativity to run wild — and that extends to our wardrobes, too, inspiring us to play with our outfits more than usual. When it comes to swimwear, we tend to be a little close-minded about where we can wear the category, leaving most of our bikinis untouched unless there's a body of water nearby. However, the Instagram set is here to inspire us to see our favorite swim pieces in a new light, by wearing them out on the town with no beach in sight. 

From string bikini tops styled over T-shirts to one-pieces worn as bodysuits, find your new summer look a scroll away. 
A kitten heel and a button-down with your favorite bikini top? An effortless look that goes a long way.

We’re not quite over the crochet trend yet. Or the color green.
Shiny bikini top, sequin heels, crystal clutch? The perfect going-out look.
