Packing for vacation has this stigma that you should throw everything and the kitchen sink into your suitcase. Whether you’re staying for four days or three weeks, it seems like we’ve yet to crack the code when it comes to simplifying packing for vacation. But you don’t have to overthink it!
We’re taking the capsule wardrobe approach and rounding up must-haves you need for any summer vacation. These are basic pieces that you can mix and match, throw on or throw over, and use over and over again to make the most out of your vacation wardrobe.

Reversible Swimwear
You probably don't need half a dozen bikinis for your next beach getaway. Try reversible swimwear instead to pack lighter and get 2 bathing suits for the price of one! Shop Dolce Vita Solids Reversible High Cut One-Piece.
Tote
This bag can double as a beach tote or your purse for the day! We'll let you decide which mood you're in. Shop Veronica Metallic Woven Tote.
Walkable Heel
We love a good heel, but when you're on vacation, you're searching for that shoe that's dressier than a flip-flop but more comfortable than your weekend stilettos. Search no more. Shop ALDO Villarosa.
