LOLL Poncho Towel Review and Giveaway {Summer Fun Giveaway Hop}

One of the best ways to stay cool in summer heat is to take a dip in the ocean. But a changing room may not be readily available at the beach, especially the less crowded ones. Lara from Australia has come up with a smart solution to this common problem - LOLL Poncho Towel, the first-ever wearable poncho towel for grownups!

LOLL towels are available in various colors and prints, including three Turkish towel designs. The founder kindly invited me to try out the Life is a Game of Chess LOLL Turkish Towel Poncho. I love the simple black and white pattern as well as its playful name. Made from Turkish towel, 100% cotton, the fabric is super soft, and comfortable to wear. Thinner and lighter than regular towel, Turkish towel is faster drying but equally absorbent. It also takes less storage space, making it more ideal for packing.

Another unique feature of the Turkish towel is its asymmetrical hem that is longer at the back. It helps make sure you always sit on the towel, without leaving any water or sand on the car seat.

Like all the other LOLL towels, the Turkish towel poncho comes in one size, which generously fits women’s sizes 4-16 (US) and men up to XL. Its relaxed style leaves enough room for fuller bodies while it doesn't look overly bulky on the slimmer ones. It not only provides sufficient cover for changing, it also keeps me warm when the wind turns stronger at the beach. LOLL is versatile too. Besides being a stylish swimsuit cover-up, it works as well as a regular beach towel. For me, it also makes a pretty piece of loungewear at home.

Each LOLL poncho towel features a hood, two internal pockets, large arm holes, and open ended zippers on each side.

• The hood helps keep the sun off, makes it easy to dry your hair, and adds style to your look.
• One of the internal pockets is splash proof and sand proof, designed to keep your phone in; the other is great for sunblock or other small objects you need ready access to. 
• The arm holes allow you to reach the internal pockets with ease, and to change in or out of your swimwear without flashing. 
• The zippers make it fast and simple to switch LOLL between a poncho and a beach towel.

All LOLL poncho towels are on sale right now. The Turkish towel designs are just $39 each (originally $60). Order your favorite LOLL at LOLL.com.au or enter to win one below! Connect with the brand on Instagram and Facebook.
