Hi everyone!!
We are back and ready to talk about fashion! We hope everyone has had a great summer so far.
Since Cara just got back from a trip to Mexico and Angela is heading to the beach in a few weeks, we have vacation packing on our minds. Apparently this is the time of year for vacations: as we looked back on our blog, almost exactly one year ago, we wrote a post on packing for a beach vacation! Visit that post here for our easy tips and tricks when it comes to packing.
So today we’re giving some examples on what you can buy now to take with you on your trip. You know we’re all about versatility, and these items will give you the biggest bang for your buck: they are classic pieces that can be dressed up or down by changing out your accessories (and don’t forget your accessories when you pack for vacation! They take up little space and will maximize your wardrobe and add a finishing touch on to each outfit!). Here is what to look for:
Beach Basics: Bathing suit, sunhat, sunglasses.
Tote Bag: Take on the plane and to the beach.
Clutch: Store your essentials (wallet, phone, lipstick) in your clutch and keep it in your tote bag. When you head away from your towel or are going out for the night, just grab your clutch and you’re ready to go.
Maxi Dress: Dress up or down! Use it as a swim cover up or throw on a statement necklace and heels at night.
Easy Tanks and Shorts: These are key for a beach trip as they are comfortable, lightweight, and can be dressed up or down by swapping out accessories.
Denim Jacket: For those chilly airplane rides and air conditioned restaurants.
Scarf: Look for a big colorful one that can double as a beach cover up or a wrap if it cools off at night.
Shoes: Metallic sandals and a neutral pair of heels will go with everything!
Jewelry: Statement necklaces! Big earrings! Easy ways to change up your outfit without taking up a lot of space in your suitcase.
