EASY BEACH VACATION PACKING GUIDE
I’m packing for another vacation…. this time BEACH! I’ve had so many of you reach out and ask HOW DO I PACK? For me it’s a fun process, and I have to admit I kind of like it! This is always my mindset…. vibrant colors, comfortable fabrics, and versatile pieces that can be styled in multiple ways. For this trip, I think I have a great mix of swim and beachwear and several looks for nighttime.
MY LOOKS FOR DAYTIME
First on my list is this darling ROMPER from Athleta. It’s cute, cool, and something I can wear to the spa, excursions, and can wear over a swimsuit or by itself. This is actually something I’ll be wearing out on the golf course. My PINK SANDALS are HERE.
Next I have these cute beach pants I picked up while shopping in Fort Myers. They are light and airy and can be worn over my swimsuit, with a tee, or dressed up with heels and some fabulous jewelry. Versatile and lightweight, perfect for packing! My swimsuit is from BEACHCANDY SWIMWEAR. Similar pants are HERE.
My next look is a HOT PINK SWIMSUIT I got several years ago from Amazon, and still available. Super cute paired with the orange. This MESH SKIRT and tank are FABULOUS style wise and price point! Such a steal. Can you guess where I got it? Unfortunately the tank is sold out. Pictured above.
My LIMERICKI is ALWAYS packed for any warm weather trip. Their suits are modest, colorful, and fit me well. My bottoms are reversible too, so double the fun in one piece. See the bottoms in my REEL. And what about these cute shorts and shirt? I’m wearing them as a coverup, but could be worn separately too. Packing a set is very smart!
MY LOOKS FOR EVENING
This SAND COLORED DRESS is ultra comfy. I’m planning on wearing it for evening, but put on sneakers and add a hat for all-time casual. This is actually a great airport/travel kind of dress. Pockets…. ladies we love our pockets! Also a fun surprise in the back!
This linen set (sold separately) is fantastic, and again can be broken up and worn separately. PANTS HERE, and SHIRT HERE. It’s made of a soft linen blend, and I love the Aztec design. A great set to wear dressed up for evening with some nude slides and fun gold jewelry. My favorite jewelry to travel with is always from DEAN DAVIDSON. Exquisite but not so expensive you’ll worry about it.
And lastly this DRESS. It was definitely a splurge but SO CUTE I couldn’t resist! I say worth every penny! Wear it with heels or flat sandals. I’ve said before, that when you change your accessories and shoes, you can change a look. This one is so chic with some flat sandals and a packable beach hat like THIS ONE.
ACCESSORIES AND SHOES
I’m packing two pairs of OKA-B sandals, pink and black. These are absolutely wonderful for any water vacay, but I might even be wearing them through the airport. A pair of NUDE COLORED SLIDES are a necessity, and taking my white HOKAS for working out and adventures! I may possibly add THESE because they add a fun punch of color.
My crossbody bag is HERE. This is such a fun brand, with so many options when it comes to the straps. I’ve actually used the colorful straps on my Louis Vuitton and WOW. Love it! I always take several pairs of sunnies, a hat, and of course SUNSCREEN.
