Spring Break Packing.

spring break colorful outfits

By the time you read this, I will be on spring break, so I’m not sure if everything here is going to make the final cut (i.e., fit in my suitcase), but I was very disciplined with myself and did an enormous try on session one afternoon so I could really map everything out. The older I get, the more I hate packing. I’m such an intuitive dresser and I hate having to fore-plan what I might be in the mood to wear. But anyway — onward —

LIZZIE FORTUNATO NECKLACE // HILL HOUSE DRESS // JENNI KAYNE HAT // CESTA PAREO // FOLLOW SUIT FLORA SWIMSUIT // MINNOW QUILTED POUCH // LA VESTE TERRY COVER UP // AGUA BENDITA WRAP SKIRT PAREO // FRANK AND EILEEN LINEN SET

01. For park days at Disney, I’m planning to test a few of the formulas Magpie readers have recommended. One day, I’m wearing an athletic dress and splashy sneaks; another day, I’m wearing my Agolde parkers, a Doen top, and Birks. At the time of writing this, I haven’t yet cracked the code on the third day. I’m really not a big athletic wear person so will probably pack an extra pair of shorts and tank/blouse for the third day…or possibly my new Kule terry dress. I can already feel some of you urging me against wearing a dress to the park but we shall see…I might layer over a swimsuit if it’s one of the days we plan on doing more of the water rides? I am such a nube; stay tuned for me to come back with my tail between my legs.

02. For travel day, I’ll probably wear my linen F&E set — it is so comfortable but puts me in an easy vacation mode. Plus they can be worn separately, as cover-ups, etc.

03. For pooltime, I am really excited to wear this new swimsuit from new-to-me brand Monday Swimwear — it’s a lot like Hunza G but I like the structured/bustier-style neckline; it’s a better fit for me — and this unbelievably chic Cleobella. The material is opaque! Super flattering on — not as compressive as other styles I’ve tried. And of course I’m bringing my favorite swimsuit: the Flora from Follow Suit, which I will be styling with this pareo. For other cover-ups, I have a pareo, a terry cover-up, and a JA Husband shirt. I’m also packing these pants and a simple white tee; I figure they can work as a cover-up or be worn out and about with sandals.

04. For dinners, I have this Hill House, this Lamaregold, and this bold linen pants set from Cleobella.
