What To Pack For Your Summer Getaway! -Ladies Edition

We’ve all been there, packing at the last minute and arriving at our destination to realize we’ve forgotten some of the essentials! Whether you’re planning a weekend trip to Vegas, jet setting off to Europe, or spending a week at the beach, these items are a must-have in your suitcase.

Comfortable wedges
Wedges are a great choice for vacation shoewear because of their versatility! Dress them down with a pair of jean shorts and a cute top, or pair them with a sundress for an outdoor dinner date.

Maxi dress
Again, a versatile addition to your vacation wardrobe. Throw one on for breakfast on the beach, with a pair of flip flops. A cute pair of Converse sneakers with your maxi dress and you're ready to take a walk through town. At night, add the wedges and some jewelry and you’re ready for a casual dinner.

Swimsuit and coverup
Whether you’re vacationing by the ocean, or at a hotel in the middle of the city, a bathing suit is a vacation must-have. Swimming or sunbathing, the water is a relaxing place to spend some of your time. And don’t forget your coverup! A matching beach coverup and sun hat makes any outfit complete.

Small purse
Especially when flying, you want to save as much space in your luggage as possible. A small crossbody bag is perfect to store your money, ID, and phone when shopping, or walking along the beach. 

Sunglasses
Sun protection is very important whether you’re on the beach or in a busy city. In addition to being a style piece, sunglasses protect our eyes from sun damage. Make wearing sunglasses as common as putting on sunscreen when going out in the sun. Safety, but make it fashion! Stop by OPTX Rhode Island before your getaway for a stylish new pair of designer sunglasses. Prescription lenses are available.
