Weekend Getaway: What We're Packing This Summer

Hello loves!

The middle of summer is almost upon us, but don’t let that be a bummer. All that means is it’s time for summer vacations! Whether you’re out of school and hanging with your hometown girls, or still working 9-5 and you’re just thinking of using some vacation days, we have got you covered! A little weekend getaway calls for new additions to your wardrobe! Road trip, airplane, city, or beach, we have found the perfect pieces to mix and match to pack light yet stylish.

First, let’s talk shoes. To be honest, packing three pairs of shoes (sandals, wedges, and heels) takes up WAY too much space in your carry-on. Our Carina Wedge in Camel is so versatile, we wear them with jeans, denim cutoffs, and babydoll dresses. The wedge is so easy to walk in; it’s perfect for style and comfort. The shoes add height to make you feel pretty, and the style is basic as to not distract from the outfit as a whole.

Pair with our Roadtrip Relaxed Skinny (a staff fave!) for a more casual look, fun printed shorts for a more flirty look, or even a maxi for a more stylish, effortless look.

Dress our Roadtrip Relaxed Skinny up with wedges or dress them down with our Gemini Sandal for a more beachy or casual vibe.  We love the wash and perfect distress on these denim jeans.  It’s such a timeless vibe.  Dress them up with our Fashion Queen Tank Top in Olive and Crystal Clear Necklace, or dress them down with our Gemini Sandal and basic grey tee.

Style this same Jetsetter Hi-Lo Top in grey with flirty printed shorts for another daytime option. Mixing and matching outfits are what packing light is all about! Use the same wedges and necklace to complete this outfit easily. This way, all outfits look original without overpacking. This leaves room for souvenirs and shopping finds on the trip home!

The easiest piece to add to your already worn accessories is a baby doll dress.  Our Tropical Tie Dye Baby Doll Dress is absolutely perfect from day to night.  Wear it with our Gemini Sandal during the day for an effortless look, then switch to wedges at night for a more dressy, put together ensemble.

This dress is the oddball, but it’s a must have for the beach; it only takes up the tiniest amount of room, we thought we could squeeze it somewhere because it’s just TOO cute. It can be a swimsuit cover-up for the beach or throw on the Carina wedges and necklace already in your suitcase and be oh-so-adorable out and about, too! Buddy Love never disappoints us with fun and flirty prints and styles for the summer. These colors will match almost any swimsuit. The neon will demand the attention of everyone around! The pom-poms are one of the hottest trends right now and we couldn’t be more in love! Every time we wear this pattern, we can’t help but think of fun in the sun!

So far, we’ve got the whole weekend wardrobe planned out!  We even have room for a “just in case”/traveling outfit.  Everyone has those lazy fashion days.  For us, we always go back to the basics in case of emergencies.  For this “just in case”/travel outfit, we reused our grey tee, distressed denim and flat sandal for the comfiest outfit of all. Throw your hair in a messy top knot and you’ll be the cutest girl without even trying.
