With the first signs of summer starting to show, we’re given a welcome reminder that we’re entering a carefree season of weekend getaways, beach vacations and exotic excursions. Whether you’re planning a trip to one of your favourite local spots or a seaside adventure on another coast, you’ll need to pack a few stylish – yet practical – essentials. To help get you started, we’ve rounded up five wardrobe must-haves perfect for relaxing and soaking up the sun.

1. Make a Splash

What better way to bask in the holiday sun than with a vibrant swimsuit that captures the energetic spirit of your surroundings? Channel your inner maximalist with a bold paisley print and an impeccable fit. A versatile two-piece design will allow you to seamlessly coordinate your look or effortlessly mix and match your most-loved tops and bottoms.

2. Take Cover

When it comes to beach and poolside style, you can’t go wrong with a simple design with clean lines and a hint of feminine detailing. A solid piece will pair flawlessly with any swimsuit and help you create a vacation-ready ensemble ideal for any warm-weather destination.

3. Hats Off On!

One of the most important accessories you can pack for a summer getaway is a breathable hat that will keep you stylishly cool, while shielding you from the sun’s harmful UV-rays. A wide-brimmed Panama hat is light and airy and will pair just as easily with your splash-worthy swimwear as it will with your sun-seeking dresses.

4. Shades of Summer

Whether you prefer retro-inspired frames or a new classic with a modern twist, a great pair of sunglasses will pull any outfit together. Set your eyes on a timeless design you’ll want to wear from sunrise to sunset, regardless of what you’re wearing or where you’re going.

5. Tote-al Style

Pack lightly with a stylish tote bag that looks just as chic at the pool or beach as it does in urban settings. A roomy design that works double duty will keep everything you need within reach, whether you’re sightseeing or lounging on a sandy beach.
