From the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, resort wear is a necessary element to any vacation. Cool and breezy, off-the-shoulder, matching sets—these trends will make you feel like a million bucks on your next getaway.
Keep scrolling for my roundup of this season’s top resort wear styles for under $60 and how you can easily incorporate them into your summer wardrobe.
First up is this cool and calm self-tie skirt from Forever 21. It’s my absolute favorite—you know why? Because it doubles as a swimsuit coverup and a chic skirt for a nice dinner. Two additional travel necessities you could pair with this skirt are a pair of metallic slides and a straw hat. It doesn’t get anymore easy-breezy than that!
Skirt | Forever 21 | Contemporary Self-Tie Skirt | $19.90
Hat | Saks OFF 5th | Panama Pom-Pom Fedora | $59.99
Sandals | Saks OFF 5th | Open-Toe Flat Sandals | $49.99
Other pairing options from your closet: a plain white tee tied at the waist, neutral gladiator sandals, dainty bangles.
Next is the classic white off-the-shoulder dress—quickly coined the most versatile dress any woman can own. Again, this look serves as a super relaxed cover up or can be dressed to the nines for your evening activities. To dress this look up, add a set of layered necklaces and a wrap heel or wedge (so on trend)! The complete look says I’m laid back, but here to impress. So cute!
Dress | Forever 21 | Smocked Off-the-Shoulder Dress | $45.00
Necklace | Saks OFF 5th | Pava Moon Layered Necklace | $24.99
Wedges | Saks OFF 5th | Open-Toe Espadrille Wedge Sandals | $39.99
Other pairing options from your closet: simple neutral flip flops, classic aviator sunglasses, tassel earrings.
Take a quick trip to Tanger and invest on some of these resort wear staples and you’ll be all set for your next vacay. Not to mention, once you have these versatile pieces, you’ll be able to build additional looks from items you already have at home (preventing the pre-vacay splurge we know too much about).
Two rules:
- Vacay mode starts in the dressing room (imagine the tan), so have fun shopping.
- Take pics of your resort style and share them with me on Instagram.
Safe travels!
