It's midsummer, and travel's biggest season is here. It’s finally time for that Greek island getaway you've been planning since winter, or that spontaneous trip to the coast. No matter where you’re headed, there is always something magical about deciding what to pack. Possibility feels endless. Your suitcase is a blank canvas.
Thoughtful packing makes all the difference. When you can picture where you’ll be, what you’ll be doing, and the overall vibe of your trip, it’s easier to move effortlessly—and stylishly—from one adventure to the next.
What to Pack for a Summer Vacation
Start with your most versatile essentials—pieces that do it all. The best swimsuits for travel are things like our classic, great-fitting bikini: the Moss Top and California High Leg Bottom. A two-piece like this is your base layer for impromptu beach afternoons, and can serve as your foundation for the perfect dinner look; it’s swimwear that doubles as daywear. Your favorite lightweight coverups for warm weather, like our best-selling linen Riviera Dress, are also the perfect pieces to wear to dinner or drinks after the beach.
With styles like these, feeling incredible comes naturally—luxe fabrics, flattering cuts, and swimsuits that fit just right. Because when you feel good in what you’re wearing, everything else falls into place.
Day to Night
Travel is about the in-between moments. An early morning coffee run, a sunset stroll through town, a lazy afternoon spent napping, exploring, or both. So think beyond the beach and pack pieces that transition. The Samara Sarong can be tied as a skirt—long or short—a dress, a top and more. The Playa Boyfriend Shirt layers effortlessly, and the Getaway Short looks as good with a tank top as it does over a swimsuit.
Bring The Bag
Don’t overlook the details—they make all the difference. A handbag is essential for travel, especially when it’s a beautiful finishing touch to wear to dinner, and practical enough to pack for sightseeing. Our new collection of handbags is handmade from a natural raffia that’s strong and sturdy, using beautiful, time-honored weaving techniques—designed to be the perfect beach-to-dinner bag."
