Breezy Vacay Musts

Whether your vacay style is nautical, euro, ethnic or beachy, pack these perfect pieces for an adorable getaway wardrobe. We heart summer mainstays with embellishments that are anything but basic.
 
GL’s best packing tip? Stick to one main color palette so you can mix ‘n’ match easily. Right now, we’re filling our suitcases with versatile neutrals and sea foam greens.
 
Set Sail!
A higher waist and sailor-inspired buttons put a great spin on the classic jean short. This go-with-everything staple looks casual with flip-flops and a tank or a bit dressier with a sleeveless blouse and espadrilles.

Lovely Lace
A lightweight neutral tank is a great option for traveling, because it’s a versatile style that’s great for warm weather locales. We’re lovin’ the soft, feminine details mixed with nautical-inspired stripes. Worn with layers or by itself, the little embellishments on this basic tank add great flair.

Rope Walk
A comfy pair of flat sandals is key whether you’re hittin’ museums and shops or the shore and boardwalk. These twisted leather slip-ons will get you there—in style. They come in plenty of colors, but we’re sweet on the soft green.

Sunny Sequins
Day or night, we love sequins anytime. This airy white dress may be the most versatile piece in your suitcase: casual enough as a bathing suit cover-up or formal enough for dinner with the fam. Could it get any prettier?

Cozy Cardi
Layers are mandatory when you’re on the go. A pretty cardi can be worn over a sundress for cool evenings or air-conditioned restaurants. Try a fun color with a detailed collar for a splash of excitement.
