I’ve obtained spring break on my thoughts right now, particularly someplace heat & sunny. Whereas that’s not within the playing cards for us this 12 months, a lady can dream. And since Sak’s Associates & Household sale (get 25% off new arrivals and 20% off choose jewellery, ends 3/27) appears to incorporate a number of of my favourite manufacturers of swimwear, drool-worthy trip clothes AND my go-to denim shorts…properly. I couldn’t assist myself.

Plus, I’ve at all times discovered packing for a sun-drenched spring break to be…simple. I maintain it easy with the identical six items:

• one nice swimsuit (or bikini),
• a pair of denim shorts (for adventuring AND use as a cover-up),
• two clothes,
• walkable sneakers,
• cute sneakers

After all, the vibe can change drastically, relying on the place we’re going. Relying on the vacation spot, I’ll add extra layers if wanted, in addition to the necessities I discover too boring to listing out (pajamas, underwear, sunscreen, and so forth.). However I’ve discovered that beginning with these six core items (swim, shorts, gown 1, gown 2, walkable sneakers, cute sneakers) actually helps to maintain overpacking in test AND works for nearly any and each spring break journey.

For instance, I pulled collectively a number of completely different spring break wardrobes for various locations: the Caribbean (one for Puerto Rico, one for Aruba, one for the Dominican Republic), Mexico (Tulum and Riviera Maya are each lined), in addition to Hawaii, if anybody is fortunate sufficient to be heading that manner.

After all, any of those mini capsules would work for nearly any vacation spot, but it surely is enjoyable to see a spread of kinds & vibes.

It’s actually a without end piece, and I’m thrilled that A.L.C. is bringing it again with up to date colours & patterns. Additionally?

I really like this colorblocked go well with — it jogs my memory of strawberry lemonade. And these are the precise pair of AGOLDE Parkers I at present personal (they’ve a shorter hem than the others, FYI), and I’ve been eyeing that blue FRAME gown since final summer time (it’s additionally obtainable in military inexperienced or black too).
