Beachy Velvet Dreams: Burgundy Crush Summer Glam
The Show Stopping Ensemble
Imagine walking into the beach club wearing this sumptuous burgundy velvet two piece that literally stops conversations mid sentence! I'm obsessed with how the luxurious crushed velvet catches the light, creating this absolutely magical dimension against sun kissed skin. The high waisted bottoms paired with the delicate tie top create such an elegant silhouette that I can't stop raving about.
Beauty & Styling Magic
Let's talk about this dreamy beach ready beauty situation! I've curated the perfect glowy makeup combo that'll have you looking like you've just emerged from the ocean like a gorgeous sea goddess. We're talking:
- That game changing Huda bronzer for sun kissed definition
- A swipe of NYX's burgundy lip tint for that 'I naturally look this good' vibe
- The Eye Lux palette for subtle shimmer that catches the sunset just right
- That heavenly Plum cream for the most luminous skin finish
Perfect Timing & Occasions
You know what I love most about this look? It transitions beautifully from lazy beach days to sunset cocktails! I'd rock this at any upscale beach club, resort pool party, or tropical vacation. It's absolutely perfect for those late summer afternoons that turn into evening soirées.
Practical Paradise
Trust me, I've thought about everything! While velvet might seem unexpected for swimwear, this piece is surprisingly practical. Just pack a light cover up for when the sea breeze kicks in, and keep that Lake face wash handy for quick refreshes. The fabric actually dries faster than you'd expect!
Mix & Match Potential
The versatility here is incredible! The top works beautifully with high waisted white shorts for lunch runs, while the bottoms pair perfectly with a simple black bandeau for a different look. I've worn these pieces separately countless times!
Investment & Alternatives
While this velvet set might be a bit of a splurge, I genuinely believe it's worth every penny for the unique luxury factor. However, if you're watching your budget, I've found similar silhouettes in standard swimwear fabrics that give the same elegant vibe for less.
Size & Comfort Notes
Here's what you need to know the velvet has this gorgeous stretch that adapts to your body beautifully. I'd recommend sizing up in the top if you're between sizes, as the tie back allows for perfect adjustment. The high waisted bottom is incredibly forgiving and sculpting!
Care & Longevity
To keep this beauty looking fresh, always rinse in cold water after swimming and lay flat to dry in the shade. The velvet actually becomes more beautiful with proper care, developing this gorgeous subtle pattern that makes it even more unique.
The Comfort Factor
I was skeptical about velvet swimwear at first, but let me tell you this fabric feels like wearing luxury! It's surprisingly breathable, and the cut allows for comfortable movement whether you're lounging or taking a dip.
Social Setting Success
This look hits that sweet spot between sophisticated and beachy casual. It's guaranteed to make you feel like the most elegant person at any beach or pool scenario, while still being totally appropriate for family settings when styled with your favorite cover up.

That velvet texture is incredible. I have something similar but in emerald green and I always get compliments when I wear it. Has anyone tried styling it with a sheer cover-up?
