Wearing: TOPSHOP tee, jacket, jeans, espadrilles, & lipstick
Yes! You’ve officially booked that well deserved, much needed summer trip. Now for the hard part: what to pack. A true summer vacation begs the normal sun-motivated items – a swimsuit, sandals, sunscreen – but my list always includes 5 items from Topshop that I know I’ll wear again and again while away. These pieces are extremely versatile and can be worn on various occasions and in any weather. They go with anything and everything, so you won’t have to overthink your outfit while trying to enjoy the trip. No matter what’s thrown at you while jet setting, these items will have you prepared for it.
- A classic white tee. Whether tucked into jeans or a maxi skirt or thrown over a bikini, there’s literally nowhere you can’t wear a white tee.
- A bomber jacket. This one is super lightweight yet protects against the wind – a perfect combo to have at the beach or on a cool summer night.
- A pair of high waisted jeans. While shorts are an obvious choice, I always make sure I have at least one pair of jeans in case there’s any chilly weather. If there’s not, you’ll be glad you had them for late-night barhopping.
- Comfortable, close-toed flats. Your feet will hate you if you explore that miles-wide town in sandals. These summery leather espadrilles are lightweight and flexible, perfect for walking.
- A wear-every-day nude lipstick. While I hate doing my makeup on vacation, I always bring a lipstick that goes with everything to throw on for when I need an extra something. This nude works well with a variety of skin tones, so it’ll still look good once you’ve got your tan.
