Everywhere we look, it feels like celebrities are opting to cover their bikinis [1] with button-down shirts, be they silk vintage styles à la Kendall Jenner [2] or edgier, denim pieces like Bella Hadid's. Who needs a caftan? Bella hinted at a holiday in her Instagram Stories, appearing to have boarded a plane in between Christmas and New Years. "See u soon, sun," she wrote. It wasn't long before Bella was propped up poolside, rocking a white high-rise bikini bottom with a frilly hem and no matching top at all — just this chambray blouse, which looks like it could be from her Chrome Hearts collaboration [3].
Bella coordinated the top with rimless blue tinted sunglasses, another must-have for the new year. I guess if you're not planning on actually taking a dip in the pool but rather posing for a spontaneous photo shoot, you, too, can leave half of your two-piece at home. But even if you do want to keep the full set intact, then any sort of soft denim shirt like this one will look cute in the place of breezy crochet pants, a linen throw-over, or a longline cardigan. Scroll down to catch a glimpse of Bella's moment, which she set to the sound of Raveena's "Hypnosis," then shop her getaway essential.
