So...you've planned the perfect Summer Vacation. It has taken weeks to get all the details together. Planning a vacation is no small feat. Just booking air travel can be so stressful. Then, all the sudden you realize, you still have more to plan. Your outfits!

If you're like me, you are exhausted by this point. Getting travel details together and perfect timing can be so arduous (I called a Travel Agent recently because I just couldn't handle the stress for this last trip) by the time you're done, the last thing you want to do is PLAN your outfits for this trip.

I'm convinced this is why I tend to overpack and carry way too much on my trips. I'm here to tell you though, if you give your outfits a good amount of thought, at least 2 weeks ahead of your trip, you will be more efficient with your packing and just feel less stressed on vacation too.

This is why we pulled together some outfits that are easy to pack and go great with each of these vacation themes. All these items are available in the shop and the links below will take you to the items suggested.

 

European Vacation

When traveling to Europe it is important to take into account the following:

  • Weather differences between countries AND the US. AKA, bring a light jacket for Summer travel.
  • Europe tends to be a place where you walk A LOT so you'll want to pack outfits that go with sneakers and comfy shoes.
  • You don't want to bring several bags on the plane. More bags means more cost to pay for those bags to travel AND more bags to potentially get lost during travel.

This is why we recommend packing outfits that easily go together to mix things up and satisfy the weather requirements too.

1. Vince Camuto Acaylee Brown Sandal. These brown sandals will be love at first sight. They are easy to walk in, look great with so many things and easy to pack.

2. Hexagon Sunglasses. Our Hexagon tortoise shell sunglasses will have you looking like a stylish beauty all summer. If you happen to lose or sit on them with all your weekend festivities, you don't have to cry because the price on these beauties is affordable.

3. Vintage Gold Leo Earrings. These earrings are go with absolutely everything. You will not regret the gold/metallic punch it adds to your style.

4. Clementine Flutter Top. I don't think it's a secret I love yellow and this flowy top is perfect for any sort of vacation. It's 100% cotton, easy to pack and looks great in the sunshine.

5. Ari Gathered Skirt. This skirt is so breathable and easy to pack. Throw on a denim jacket and give it a totally different look too! 

6. Brooke Raglan Dress. This dress is 100% cotton so it breathes beautifully. It can easily be dressed down or dressed up for all the things you'll do while you're in Europe.

7. Nike Court Sneakers. These sneakers add so much style and pizzazz in the best casual way to every outfit.

8. Kara Denim Jacket. This is a customer favorite because it fits so well and shows the female figure beautifully. The bottom hem is raw giving it the most relaxed but elevated look.

9. Hope Bamboo Bodysuit. This bodysuit is sooo soft and easy to wear on any traveling excursion. The v neck construction makes it look amazing on just about anyone.

10. Floppy Sunhat. If you're going to be in the sun, bring a hat! This one is on clearance so it's a great deal.

11. Tabitha Wide Leg Linen Ankle Crops. These pants are sooooo comfortable and easy to travel with. These pants SHOULD be a go to when it's hot outside because the linen is so breathable.
