The Perfect Denim Shirt Dress
I am a huge fan of denim shirt dresses! They are super comfortable and so light weight, and can be worn in the spring and summer time. This darling dress denim shirt dress from Free People. and the length of the dress is just right, shorter in the front, longer in the back. This dress is super flattering and is worth every penny! You can also wear it unbuttoned over a pair of leggings or jeans and a top for another look, or as jacket.

A Casual Black Day Dress, Option 1 and Option 2
Casual black day dresses are the perfect go-to for me in the spring and summertime because they pair well with absolutely anything and are super easy to accessorize!
In the photos attached, I am wearing a two different casual black day dresses from Amazon. Both are super affordable and very easy to style with minimal work required. The first one is a little shorter, and the second dress is longer with more of a flare and looser fit. I paired them with the classic Veja sneakers. And voila, outfit complete.

One Piece Swimwear, Option 1 and Option 2
I still love bikinis and two-piece swimwear situations, but I’ve recently been digging one-piece bathing suits! They can also be worn as a bodysuit with a pair of denim shorts or a skirt. Another wardrobe option!
Photographed above are two of my favorite one-piece bathing suits. Both are budget friendly, yet super chic. I love how they hug my figure and provide just the right amount of coverage. Both suits come in a variety of colors.

Beach Cover-Ups
A definite must have if you are planning to travel to somewhere with a large pool or beach. A beach cover-up is the easiest way to transition from the water to your next activity! Often times a pretty beach cover up can create a major look! It’s so much fun to accessorize with coverups!

Beach Sandals, Option 1 and Option 2
It’s super easy for sandals to get ruined while on vacation and that is one of my biggest pet peeves. To not worry so much, I highly recommend packing pairs of budget friendly options that go with everything. These are two of my newest pairs of sandals that I picked up for this season. The black pair features the hugely popular braided trend, and the tan pair feature the classic H-band style. Both pairs of sandals will go with anything, making them a great addition to planning your vacation outfits. Both pairs of sandals come in a variety of neutral tones.

Activewear Sets
Travelling can be such a time consuming process so I always do my part by properly dressing for the occasion. Many times this means comfort and an outfit I can move in as I move children and luggage! Athletic wear and athleisure styles are great options for long car rides! Apart from the actual travel, I always try to pack a sports bra and a pair of athletic bottoms when I know I’m going on a trip. I’m a big fan of Alo Yoga and Everlane and I love how comfortable their athleisure pieces are. If I’m aiming for a comfortable vibe, their products are my usual go to.
This white athleisure set is is perfect to work out in, or to use as layering pieces. I recently styled these white biker shorts with an oversize button down shirt and a trench coat. Athleisure wear at it’s finest! Comfortable, but still stylish.
