Let it hang open.

Yes, just let it hang open over your bikini. That’s the whole move.

The whole point of a sheer cover-up is that it’s barely there — it adds a layer of movement and sun protection without hiding the swimsuit. Tying it at the waist usually looks like you’re trying too hard, plus it bunches up weirdly when you sit down. Belting it? Even worse.

If you really want to “style” it, unbutton the top few buttons if it has them, or let the fabric drape off one shoulder. But honestly, just throwing it on and leaving it loose is the easiest, best look. That’s why you bought it — to look effortless. So be effortless.

The only real rule: make sure the fabric isn’t so see-through that your bikini becomes an afterthought. That’s a different problem.
