How to Wear Loungewear Out to the Beach

You know as well as we do that loungewear is no longer just for your, well, lounge. It’s a fashion category and trend all of its own; when it comes to where to wear loungewear, the list is now endless.

Here at Sheridan Life, we’ve spoken about how to wear striped loungewear and those with contemporary florals out of the house and as part of your everyday wardrobe — now it’s time to focus on summer.

And in summer, it’s even easier to wear loungewear out. With longer days and balmy nights, a relaxed mood in the air, everyone’s dressing how they feel — cool, comfortable and laidback. 

Loose linen and cotton, shorts and dresses that hit mid-thigh (or shorter) — it’s all fair game when the temperatures rise (the lighter fabrics are, of course, a necessity). 

And whether you’re going down to your local beach or pool, or perhaps jetting off somewhere a little more tropical, you need the perfect outfit to kick back and drift off in.

This is why our loungewear collections this season are so perfect — it’s loungewear for the beach, designed to be seen, exuding both comfort and style. 

Our collections can take you from the car to the sand, be thrown over your bikini on the designated fish & chip (or ice cream) run, beach loungewear sets that you can even get away with wearing out to dinner after (just make sure to brush the sand off your feet).

Think cover-ups, co-ords, and offerings to mix and match to your heart's delight. 

So throw your sunnies on, and start slathering on that SPF, as we take you through how to wear loungewear out to the beach this summer. 

Who doesn’t love a matching set? As L’Officiel says, they’re “all the rage”. Sign us up.

And Adelino, a collection with shorts and a button-up shirt, perfectly encapsulates loungewear for the beach.

Crafted in comfortable cotton, with fine stripes (another trend of the season), its casual, crumpled texture makes for an effortless look. 

Wear the shirt unbuttoned over swimwear while you’re lying about on the sand or grass — another layer between you and the sun.

If you prefer to mix and match over monochrome, then this one is for you.

The Adelino Short — yep, boxer-style shorts are a huge trend this season, both for beachwear and partywear, according to Vogue — is back for this second look. You can’t blame us when searches for boxer shorts are up 130%.

If you’re comfortable, go for the simplest look of all: pair the shorts with a bikini top. That’s one solution to how to wear loungewear out.

Want just a little more coverage? Our Odesse Top is a classic ribbed tank — and its chai colourway will pair perfectly with the stripes from Adelino. 

Subtle colour coordination, at its best.

A little more dressy — literally. 

Made with a ribbed knit (meaning it’s stretchy and comfy), our Aloida Dress is soft and simple to wear. 

Its golden brown hue is more neutral than you’d think — meaning you can wear it on its own for a complete outfit, or toss the Adelino Shirt over the top (buttons undone and sleeves rolled up, please).

And if for this loungewear, you’re wondering where to wear it (beyond your local beach, of course) — we’ve made it work quad biking in Santorini.
