What's In My Bag: Spring Break Essentials
Not a day goes by that I don't get made fun of for how many bags I am carrying. So I figured why keep it a secret and decided I'd share "what's in my bag" when I am going places. Spring break is literally right around the corner and although I don't technically get a "spring break" anymore (s/o to all my teacher friends), we are taking a fun girls trip this upcoming weekend. Below is a list of items that I am bringing with me for our upcoming getaway and I think they would be great for any upcoming spring break trip or vacation that you might have.
1. Brush on Block // 2. Abercrombie & Fitch Bikini // 3. Where The Crawdads Sing // 4. Jean Shorts // 5. Sunglasses // 6. Birkenstock Dupes // 7. Amazon Fashion Hat
Spring Break Packing Essentials
A solid pair of jean shorts (that don't show your booty). These are more of a splurge but finding a good pair of jean shorts is ALWAYS a struggle for me. Highly recommend these that I just got from Nordstrom's.
Some fun sunnies! These are from Amazon and under $15.
A cute pair of sandals. These are currently on my birthday wish list. These were also EVERYWHERE last summer, so I snagged some from Target just a couple weeks ago knowing that they would likely sell out again. Only $15, true to size and a good dupe for Birkenstocks.
Sunscreen to protect your face! My esthetician recommended this brand - Brush On Block. She said it is great especially if you are at the beach so you don't get the gritty sand all over your face from using lotion. There is also a tinted option as well!
A fun bikini - I mean, DUH! Sharing more deets over on my Stories on this bikini from Abercrombie & Fitch and then also this white bikini from Target! Go check it out while you can! I will be sure to save everything to a highlight so you can go back and reference.
Grab a book for your flight, the beach or an audio book for when you are on the road! This has been on my reading list for quite some time. I have heard from SO many friends how good it is!
A hat to block the sun from your face. I was listening to The Goal Digger podcast on my way to Manhattan the other weekend and Lauryn from the Skinny Confidential literally preached about protecting your skin while in the sun and she repeatedly stated that she is never outside without a hat on. This hat is an Amazon fashion find for $20.
A cover up for the pool, beach or to wear over your swimmie to grab some lunch! I love this wrap cover up from Abercrombie & Fitch. Comes in a couple different colors and is TTS (true to size).
Something to keep your White Claws cold and your hands warm 😜seriously OBSESSED with my Brumate. Coop got me one after a summer trip last year and also got me another as a Christmas gift. If you don't have one of these, you NEED one in your life. Especially if you enjoy Michelob Ultras, White Claws, Trulys, etc.
A versatile maxi dress - this tie dye one from amazon is super soft, could be worn so many ways and is under $20! I will definitely have to style this one soon for y'all soon. I would recommend sizing down one size in this piece. I got a size XS.
I could probably keep going but I only have one bag 😉Hope you guys enjoy this little series! Excited to keep sharing "What's In My Bag" for future occasions. As always, let me know if you ever have any questions about anything or would like to see something on the blog soon! I love hearing from you guys.
With love,
