We’re so in love with the RVCA Beach Bum Dress and we’ve noticed we’re not the only ones. Apparently Polyvore fans can’t get enough of it either, as we’ve noticed it as a vital piece in a few collections, like this one from the blog, “Wolfcub.”

Perfect for the beach, or as a swim cover up, this 100% cotton crinkle gauze dress is pigment garment dyed with an enzyme wash. It’s string shoulder straps make it even that much sexier. Hot!

We’ve seen it worn as both a top and a dress (it’s that versatile) and of course, you can get it here at Becker Surf!
