I am itching to travel! I know it’s not realistic with a newborn and a toddler to take a big trip, but this summer we’re hoping to plan some weekend getaways. Ideally, ones we can drive to since flying with babies is not that fun lol! I figured if I built out an ideal travel wardrobe it may help a vacation materialize!

Summer Travel Styles You Should Always Pack

I feel like I hit the jackpot with this dress. It’s cotton which is ideal for summer days, stain proof {aka re-wearable even after feeding a toddler} and is so breezy and comfortable. I think finding a dress that can be dressed up for a dinner out or kept casual for a day of sightseeing is ideal. I kept this look simple as going out at night isn’t something we do as often anymore. One day, you guys, one day!

I think flat sandals are the way to go. Not only are they more comfortable than heels or even wedges, but they are easier to pack. This pair is so pretty and I love that the gold embellishments make them feel a little fancier. I was obsessed with a simple pair of brown sandals from Old Navy last year and am still wearing them! They are my go-to for long days out or even just running to the grocery store. This pair is similar to the ones I bought last year and I love that they have a strap on them for extra security.

I think another great option for travel style is a comfy jumpsuit. Most are made of really lightweight materials and are easy to style. Also, just one piece makes a full outfit! This gingham one is so adorable for summer, but this nautical striped jumpsuit is pretty tempting too!

I’ve included a few pairs of light denim below because I feel like you can’t travel without a great pair of jeans. But how comfy would these chambray pants be? Or these striped pants? You know I love a good paperbag waste! Again, I think these lighter fabrics are so comfortable and they roll up so small in a suitcase!

For accessories, I like to stick to a good crossbody bag while traveling. They just make the most sense to me! I appreciate that you can easily keep them in front of you in a crowd or while you’re getting your i.d. out at the airport. This bag is so polished and pretty! I’m also kind of obsessed with these colorful options. They are a camera bag style which is always a little roomier than most crossbody bags.

BTW I am obsessed with these sunglasses, but they are always sold out and now I know why! I guess Meghan Markle wore them recently so they have been flying off the shelf! But Anthropologie has the same pair in tortoise which I might like even more than the black pair I have. I can’t decide!
