Is there anything better than a mini break? A weekend getaway leaves you just enough time to discover someplace new and come back feeling refreshed. We put together a perfect packing list of pieces that will do double duty all weekend long, so the last thing you’ll have to worry about is what you’ll wear. Bon voyage!
Of course, you’ll need a bathing suit and coverup for lounging by the pool or the beach. And for happy hour, after! I love the black-and-white color blocking of this Rod Beattie suit, and the hot pink retro appeal of this J.Crew one piece. This navy swim dress is super flattering, as is this v-neck leopard print suit.
Just throw on a tasseled linen coverup or a chic maxi-dress and you’re ready to go!
A pair of slides are essential for everything from sightseeing to relaxing by the water. Prep is having a resurgence, as are these Jack Rogers fancy flip flops. On the more minimalist side of things, these simple strappy A.EMERY slides are the LBD of sandals. These rope-y J.Crew sandals are beachy and beautiful.
You need one throw-it-on sundress that will work for everything from date night dinner to window shopping. You can’t go wrong with a crisp, white sundress, an eyelet maxi-dress for summery vibes, or this breezy lavender beach dress from J.Crew.
Don’t forget a hat! It’ll protect your face from the sun and give you some seriously glamorous vibes. I love the subtle striping on this canvas bucket hat, the ribbon and fringe detailing on this Panama hat, and the bandana band on this packable hat. And of course, you can’t go wrong with an XL straw hat for riviera vibes.
A tote will carry you through your whole weekend, whether it’s this monogrammed sunshine satchel from Tuckernuck, this pink-and-green woven tote, or this stunning canvas-and-leather large bag.
