Summer ‘21 Styles & Trends in Newport Beach
Your Travel Guide @ Beachview Vacations
March 17, 2021
After a year of sweatpants-living, it’s time to throw on flashy colors, prints, and styles as you head to the beach for some sun – and most especially – fun!
And when you’re soaking up rays and splashing in the waves, it’s important that you not only feel comfortable in what you’re wearing, but also fabulous. That can mean anything from a sexy bikini to sensible UV-protective cover-ups. We’ve rounded up the latest beach fashion trends that scream “I’m FINALLY on vacation!”
Low Tide, High Fashion: What to Wear at the Beach!
This summer, it’s all about bold, interesting bathing suits. Asymmetrical straps and neck lines, textured fabrics, and eye-catching prints are everywhere. We’re seeing more cheeky, Brazilian cuts than ever, but we’re also seeing classic, high-waisted bottoms, too. So what’s the trend here? Find what makes you feel your best and don’t look back! If you’re in need of an upgrade to your swim trunks, go for a pair that’s cut above the knee. Gone are the days of baggy board shorts. Guys can show off their legs too! For local spots that are selling what’s hot, check out these favorites around town.

The Boardwalk’s the new Catwalk: What to Wear Around Town!
Newport Beach is the place to see and be seen, and the boardwalk is the best place to do it! Hop on a beach cruiser and ride from one end of the peninsula to the other. You’ll not only have a front-row seat to the beach, but you’ll also see a parade of beachgoers showing off their boho fashion and flair. Neutral colors and natural fibers are considered most beachy these days, and we’re not complaining. Not only do we feel cool wearing them, but they keep us cool as we pedal our way through town. For the ultimate beach fashion, stop in these stores on your way into town and stock up on trendy, beachy threads.
