Are you heading to Ibiza or going on a city summer break? We’ve put together a list of 10 summer wardrobe holiday essentials for your convenience
Packing for your holiday can be an absolute nightmare, especially with those pesky luggage allowances. First you have to decide what to take, then there’s the dilemma of having to fit all those clothes into one small suitcase. And then after all that, inevitably you end up wearing the same things while on holiday, despite having to sit on your suitcase in order to shut it. So you don’t have to go through all the stress of holiday packing, this year, we’ve done the hard work for you and put together a list of chic staples which means you have more space for gifts and any cute souvenirs you want to bring home with you.
Casual top
A versatile casual top that you can dress up with some jewellery for the evening or use as a casual cover up in the daytime is a must.
Denim Shorts
Denim shorts are the quintessential summer staple. They are tried-and-true and never go out of style. We absolutely love our vintage Levis denim short. The high waist makes them perfect for teaming with this summer’s crop-top trend. If you don’t have any get some now. Places like Brick Vintage sell a great range!
A cute dress
No summer wardrobe is fully complete without a cute dress. We love floral maxi dresses that can be worn in the city and on the beach. They also look fab with a pair of wedges for an evening look.
Small handbag
This is something that we always forget and as a result, end up lugging a huge bag around with us – annoying. Make sure you pack a handbag that’s small and goes with all of your outfits.
Sunglasses
No one likes the sun in their eyes and no summer wardrobe is fully complete without the perfect pair of sunglasses.
Bikini
Take two bikinis or swimsuits for a week’s holiday (they are, after all, very small).
Wedge Sandals
Go from day to night effortlessly with a comfortable wedge. We love the espadrille style which are so versatile and easy to wear. The look great with summer dresses and teamed with some denim shorts.
A denim jacket
A denim jacket is the ideal summer holiday wardrobe investment. It’s perfect for the evenings and if the weather turns a bit sour. Also it goes with absolutely everything and has a timeless appeal which means when you look back at your holiday snaps in year’s to come, you won’t be cringing and thinking ‘what the hell was I wearing’.
