I was going to say, I'm pro-bikini but used to live in Texas and wore longer sleeves to keep the sun off my skin because it kept me cooler doing that than if I wore a short sleeve shirt.
Sun tan lotion doesn't cut it for me, and I can go from white to red in a matter of minutes. So yeah, loose flowing clothes seem nice (not a fan of burqas esthetically but I never tried one so maybe they're comfy?)
