Summer’s here, a time for relaxing getaways. But planning trips — and often packing for them — can sometimes increase stress, so here are five essential fashion pieces that will make packing easy and light. LILLI C. LOVBERG
1. Marianela Jumpsuit — This one-piece is perfect for lazing around your favorite weekend resort. The modest and classic design make it just right for walking from the pool to the hotel bar. Poppy Boutique in Del Rayo Village.
2. Trina Turk Dress — This bold yet elegant dress can be dressed up or down for a night out on the town. Keep it simple with sandals and a sweater, or make it fancy with a pair of heels. TRE Boutique in Flower Hill Promenade, The Forum, or 4S Ranch.
3. Matisse Cagney High Wedge Sandals — Packing a pair of these is a must. Wear them to dress up capris or when walking down to the hot tub. Shoes can take up a lot of space in your suitcase, and these neutral wedges will go with basically anything. Fairen Del in Flower Hill Promenade.
4. Ecru Cropped Pant — A pair of white capris is a necessity for any summer trip. They will go with nearly every shirt (like the Sky tie dye top featured here) or pair of shoes you can dream up. Add a David Aubrey necklace for a fun and flirty look. Peaches en Regalia at Del Mar Plaza.
5. Weekender Tote — This bag screams perfection for any pool or beachside trip. Its neutral color and great size make it a flawless choice to hold your traveling essentials. Poppy Boutique in Del Rayo Village.
