Vacation Style

Since I had shared with you previously some of the things I was hoping to find and wear on this vacation, I thought I might as well share some of my island style. 

Packing for this trip was a breeze, dresses, sandals, and bikinis galore. I promised the hubs to pack as lightly as I possibly could. And I some how managed to do just that, getting Baby Sis's and my own clothes in one carry on. I'm stumped as to how I did that, but it happened. A great tip for those momma's traveling with little ones, pack clothes for them that can be tossed if you don't have room after all the shopping you do while on vacation. I took PJ's and play clothes that the girls were growing out of that I didn't have any attachment to so that they could be thrown away before we headed back to reality. I even left behind a few of my own things, an old beach cover up to be exact. Another little tip, pack inexpensive clothing. I'm a worrywart  so I always think something could happen, therefore I don't like to take expensive clothes, shoes, etc when I'm traveling in case anything gets lost especially when checking bags in an airport. And aside from my Mini MAC nothing else was so valuable I would die if it were lost.

Vacation Style: Maui Edition

With our Maui trip just days away, I've been organizing like crazy, trying to make sure we have everything we will need. And of course that means clothes! Leading up to this trip I've been shopping for new goodies to take. Best part about shopping for this trip are all the fun dresses. I am totally a dress girl. Live in them all Summer long, so I assumed packing would be a cinch. Wrong, there were just way too many cute things out to choose from. I just wanted to buy everything.

But here the things, I've whittled my list down to.

Dress | Flip Flops | Hat | Bikini | Jacket | Shorts | Bracelet | Tote | Sunnies | Sandals | Shirt | Dress

1. A comfy cotton dress is a must for any vacation

2. Flip-flops are a total necessity

3. A hat to protect against too much sun (FYI, I'm obsessed with SPF and anything that protects against sun damage)

4. Needed at least 1 new bikini for this trip

5. A denim jacket is always nice to have for when it cools off a bit. Plus it goes with virtually anything.

6. Print shorts are just so stinking cute.

7. Jewelry that can go with any outfit

8. A canvas tote for all those beach necessities

9. Aviators are the perfect pair of sunnies for all occasions

10. A dressy pair of sandals for dinner

11. Chambray shirt makes for a great beach cover up and plays double duty when paired with a bright skirt

13. Printed shift dress are just fun

Can't wait to be in Maui! And don't worry I've got a fun giveaway from A Lotus Blossom Design for all my loyal readers while I'm away. So keep checking back.
