Do you have any trips planned this summer? I cannot wait for warm weekends at the beach, with fish tacos for lunch and a glass of wine as the sun sets.
When packing, I try to remember my friend Susan’s advice to choose a color scheme, so you can mix and match pieces on your trip. J. Crew has such pretty, easy pieces this summer, so here are a few we love for a sunny vacation. Most are neutral, with a few pops of red and blue…
From top:
1. Black romper for evening cocktails.
2. Comfy leather sandals. (These are cute, too.)
3. Boho dress to wear to the beach.
4. Straw hat.
5. Striped tee.
6. Chino short because that 5″ inseam is so, so flattering.
7. Halter mesh swimsuit for chasing around after little dudes.
8. Cashmere sweater to wear on cool evenings.
9. Oversized sunglasses.
10. Gingham shirtdress with the most feminine silhouette.
11. Kayu straw tote to carry a towel and favorite book.
12. Muscle tank to show off your pretty shoulders.
For dressier moments: a black romper, a gingham shirtdress and a cover-up dress.
Thoughts? What do you always pack?
