My Summer Vacation Essentials
June 1, 2022The world is vacationing again and it’s a beautiful, long awaited occurrence to see. No matter where I’m going, being fashionable, cool, and comfortable is probably one of the most important parts of my trip. Here are the fashion essentials I’m packing on my summer vacation to make sure I’m executing my style and packing with ease.
Sun and Trucker Hats
Possibly even more important than your outfits is protecting your skin! Do so fashionably in a crochet or woven bucket hat or trucker hat for my fellow big hair girls.
Maxi Skirt
There is nothing quite as chic as a maxi skirt, a gorgeous and comfortable addition to any top you’ve packed and a smooth day to night transition.
Oversize Button Up
My essential for life in general, a summer staple no matter where you’re traveling. Throw over literally everything and find literally anywhere!
Dresses
There are categories within this category because dresses take up most of what I pack. They’re easy and thoughtless while still creating a stunning look for any occasion!
Sexy Sun Dress
Shopping, lunching, and strolling.
Tube Dress
Vogue called this the comeback style of summer, I think we have Hailey Bieber’s Grammy YSL look to thank for that. I only recently started to wear tube dresses and fell in love. They can look sophisticated for an evening out with the right jewelry and pumps but easily works for a day out or walking around the beach on its own.

White Summer Dress
An elegant must for your luxurious dinners and days living like a local.
Graphic Print Dress
Another 2022 trend that I’m sure will fade with the summer, but while it’s here, graphic print dresses make ya POP in all the right ways.
Skort
I can’t believe I am old enough to have watched something be a trend, harshly go out, and come right back. However it seems like the 20s are the year of recurring trends for 90s babies. Some are too cringe but the SKORT I happily can get behind.
Shoes
Since shoes take up so much space and weight I do my best to only ever pack two or three pairs that each correlate with all the outfits I have planned. So I stick with white, black, and neutrals and simple silhouettes. I will typically bring one platform sandal or dressy heel, one comfy sandal or slide, and one sneaker. (I save a statement shoe purchase for wherever it is I am going!)
Dressy Heel
Dressy Sandal
Flat Sandal
Sneaker
One of the most exciting parts of traveling is shopping, so leave a gap in your suitcase and buy whatever you’re missing in a new city!
