packed and prepped

 

For me, one of the most exciting things about going on vacation is packing for it! My process typically starts with a hunting and gathering mission in my closet (and, yes, online!), then editing down the options to equal parts staples and showboats. En route to Hawaii today, I am packed and prepped with a list of recommended hikes, prayers for surf, and my trusty carry-on, replete with clothes that all share one valuable trait: I can throw them on over a wet swimsuit and still feel dressed. My new go-to's include: the pretty floral Alemais cover-up, pictured above, and the intricate eyelet, below, along with this cute cut-out mini! P.S. I love this Australian brand for its Zimmermann-like vibe with a friendlier price range! See more of this exceptional line here!
